Brownie, avert your eyes!

This is a scarier video than that one of the woman in Little Rock crying at the town hall meeting.

Spokane declares war on squirrels



SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) - The Finch Arboretum is being overrun by ground squirrels, and Spokane Parks and Recreation is bringing in some special artillery.

The agency is using a special machine called the Rodenator Pro to detonate some of the estimated 100 to 150 squirrels tearing up the grounds.

The Rodenator Pro pumps propane and oxygen into the tunnels of squirrels, then sends an electric spark that causes an explosion. The shock waves kill the squirrels and collapse their tunnels - but in a humane way, the agency said.

I fully expect Craig to order a Rodenator Pro by the end of the week.

Well, that's an interesting cutline



Squirrels in many neighborhoods ride the “fence highway” between trees and house rooftops. And with all the wet weather, traveling the fence highway might also be a way for squirrels to keep their nuts dry.

(WTH, is going on with my photos being cropped like that? Sorry about that, I'll try to figure it out.)

Saving a Squirrel by Eating One

RARE roast beef splashed with meaty jus, pork enrobed in luscious crackling fat, perhaps a juicy, plump chicken ... these are feasts that come to mind when one thinks of quintessential British food. Lately, however, a new meat is gracing the British table: squirrel.

Yes, I laughed at the headline too.

UPDATE ...

And now the squirrels go on the offensive by burning down a house of a former Member of Parliament.

No wonder the Yankees are in last place

There's a squirrel on the right field foul pole at Yankees Stadium!!!




This is not a good omen for the final season in the House that Ruth built.
