They only do this so they can crap on your car as they fly over.

Always wondered how Harry Reid got home at night.

And so-called Homeland Security does nothing.
I think they should put in a call for this guy.

I figure if I was zapped by a 3500 volt flash, I might jump too.

Jeff, was that a link to Boris Badenov? 'Cause his track record on flying squirrel eradication is not exactly stellar.

My dad's a retired Air Force pilot. Let me see what I can do. Would it be wrong for me to mention that I think the squirrels are cute?

I wonder how many landings it takes for them to learn to pull their heads back to avoid smashing their faces into the trees.

Falling with style.

Sadly, the flying squirrel crashed head-first into a tree after being blinded by the flash. Which isn't a bad thing because, despite the wings, he is a squirrel.

Cindy, flying squirrels are cute in the same way succubi are. [Not that succubi are real, but whatever] Turn your back for one second, and there they are destroying everything.

All other things being equal, if you adore a squirrel you are commiting squirrelatry. No matter how cute they are. No matter how far they glide. Back me up on this Presbyterians!

Solution: high-jumping kangaroos with Stingers or AIM-9s. (How many hardpoints on a kangaroo?)
