I'm aware that the squirrels outside of my office window are looking at me funny again.

A squirrel accidentally electrocuted itself at the south Greenwood Street substation, causing a three-hour power outage that began at 9:19 a.m. in Spring Valley.
Now they're conducting suicide missions...be AFRAID...be VERY AFRAID!!!

I had a squirrel commit suicide this way just down the street a few years back. Blew the skin right off his front leg. My daughter was fascinated...

No problem, ubetcha - I'm so lazy that it's literally easier for me to creat a link and post it, where I can then right-click on it and open it in a new window, than to launch a new browser window and then copy-and-paste the URL into it.
Too, I tend to forget what I was doing when the news headlines pop up in the new browser, as I've customized my default home.
Making a link is super-easy: <a href="http://www.website.com/page.htm">linked words</a>

No, Siouxie, they were just GONE... bloody little squirrel eye sockets. He was pretty well cooked, too - must have hung on for a moment or two after completing the circuit.
Only killed power to the neighborhood, though, so he didn't even make the blog. Poor little bugger.

That was no terrorist; that was a tragically depressed squirrel, left totally without self-esteem because of what he read on this blog.

Cooking Squirrels in the Dark with Gas would be a good name for something.

This is not a children's book, so you probably will want to read it with an adult.
Well, it is about squirrels, but you have to wonder what horrors are documented that require an 'R' rating.
