    I hate squirrels. Actually I hate large amounts of them.

    I did a renovation on my lawn this past fall and they really screwed it up. They dug probably a thousand small holes while they buried acorns and black walnuts.

    I've got easily 15 squirrels on my yard at once. Front and back. There's nothing around here killing them and the food supply keeps them around. They are going to have one less oak tree soon enough though. It's too close to my house and it's gotta come down. The roots entered the sewer pipe, it shades the roof causing moss, and it leans slightly over where I sleep at night. Recipe for disaster but it will be nice in the stacks.

    I actually like squirrels. As long as they stay out of my buildings and vehicles.

    While on my ride to get some stuff this morning, I spilled my coffee on my lap/truck seat. Yeah, ouch! I grabbed a yellow fleece glove to sop it up a bit....and a big grey squirrel decided to attempt to cross the road at the same time I got done with that mess.


    Bad idea for that squirrel....
