Squirrels attack!

Arson aimed at a former Member of Parliament. I told y'all not to trust them!

Fenian's next.

(That works on two levels, doesn't it?)

 

Write-brained just broke out in a sweat and doesn't know why.

 

Not to get off topic, but there's a guy I work with who has an estimated 400 bats in and around his attic. He's looking at several grand to have them removed and the attic repaired.

He thought only about four or five lived in a small area under his gabled end (attic not accessible from there, apparently), so he didn't mind because he said they kept the bugs down.

But he was recently in the right place at the right time when they made their nightly exit and said it scared the shit out of him.

 

Wow, that's insane. I'm not fond of bats and if I found out I had that many in my attic, I might have to sell the house.

 

FRANK: (jumping to his feet) OK that's it! We're moving!

GEORGE: What?

FRANK: I will not tolerate infestation.

GEORGE: You haven't even seen one.

FRANK: Don't you understand the very thought, the very idea, I'll never be comfortable again.

 

HER FATHER IS THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY -- Fortunately, he was killed by arson-minded squirrels.

 

Uhh, dude ...

 

I saw this Sunday and thought of Fens...

It was the perfect Christmas gift, if my husband did say so himself. Inexpensive, practical, requiring no batteries or assembly, and available for cash from the garden shop on Dec. 24: a squirrel-proof bird feeder.

It came to me with a two-pound bag of black-oil sunflower seeds, and I was, for the moment, delighted. "Well, I didn't see anything under the tree for me last night, but you pulled another rabbit out of a hat," I said, admiring his Houdini-like talent for shopping at the last minute.

I studied the promises on the box containing the special green metal feeder. "Outsmart the varmints," and "End backyard thievery," and finally, "Wild birds will feed in peace." My heart warmed to the magic of advertising.

 

There is a reason the squirrels are attacking.

They are being served as dinner. "It's a great conversation starter for dinner parties."
