... these young squirrels won't let me be
Lord have mercy on me
whoah, woe is me
Well, I heard a squirrel in my garage
I ain't naming names
She really worked me over good
She was just like Jesse James
She really worked me over good
She was a real trap burglar
She went through all my crackers, Lord
and ate up my peanut butter

Closer To Home
October 10, 2008. Westminster, Colorado.
Apparently a squirrel has decided to take up residence in our attic. We hear it scurrying around in the mornings. At first I thought it was running across the roof; then I took a look up there and saw it half hanging out of one of our attic vents.
Now we like to think we're generous with our hospitality, but if you don't use the facilities, and your species has a predilection towards gnawing on electrical wires, and you don't pay rent, you can't stay with us.
I set a trap yesterday; apparently Home Depot sells them. (Who knew?) Well, the little mofo came down, swiped the crackers and peanut butter, triggered the trap and got away. Today it grabbed the bait again, this time without even triggering the trap. I guess I'll have to be persistent.

Dolphin Jumps On Woman
October 9, 2008. New Smyrna Beach, Florida
Some other tidbits: apparently New Smyrna Beach is the "shark attack capital of the world". And there is a gator attack incident database online here.

Cougar Masquerades As Housecat
September 30, 2008. Casper, Wyoming.
911 call from a woman complaining of a "bothersome 'big cat'". Officer dispatched, thinking it's a house cat. Hilarity ensues.
