ValleyWag (exclusive!) reports that a Python is on the loose at Google’s office in Chelsea, New York City. Not the programming language Python, but a REAL, 3-foot long snake (Python 3??)!

Subject: [Everyone-ny] Pet Snake Missing in NYC office

Dear Googlers:

The timing of this email could not be more awkward. Over the weekend, a pet snake belonging to a Googler was released from its cage in a 4th floor cubicle near the Tech Stop. The snake is a 3-foot long, brown and grey ball python named Kaiser. Ball pythons are nonvenomous and are commonly kept as pets. …

Tempting as it might be, this is not an April Fool’s joke! …

I am quite certain it is not an April Fool’s Joke (from Google), since it’s currently April the 2nd in New York. Even snakes got a sense of humor on April Fools’ Day.

Hopefully it will be found soon.

UPDATE: The snake man - ValleyWag “track down” the owner of the snake, hmm, he looks a little familiar…

UPDATE 2: Confirmed by Google.
