Watch Out: Snails Ahead

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados (AP) -- Ravenous giant snails that emerge from the ground by night are thriving on the tropical island of Barbados, destroying crops and prompting calls for the government to eliminate them.
This is officially "The World's Slowest Invasion".
Easiest job in Barbados: Catch the snails. I think we may have found something for Donald Rumsfeld to do.

reminds me of an old joke:

Once there was a snail who was tired of being slow. He went out and bought a really fast sports car and had the dealer paint a big 'S' on each side of it.

Whenever someone saw him zooming past in his new car, they would say, 'Hey, look at that S-car go!'

They could export them to France.
