It's a good thing squirrels can't get rabies, because one decided my
brother in-law's sister was a tree branch and decided to sit on her. It
was supposed to be a July 4 cookout, but it turned into the July 4 Squirrel
Bombing. The dumb thing latched on and wouldn't let GO. A friend finally
pulled it off (blood everywhere) and got scratched up herself for her
pains.

Off to the emergency room with both of them for bandages and
antibiotics...and just in case they needed rabies shots. The sister did
get antibiotics for the puncture wounds, but squirrels don't get rabies.
It was just an ornery squirrel.

My sister pulled out a have-a-heart trap and has it baited, in hopes the
squirrel comes back so they can trap it...and kill the SOB.

The Lions just went 0-16, a perfect season... if you're into zeroes. The
quarterback was the star of the UConn Huskies; I'll bet he wishes he were
back in class right about now.

I'm not sure what I'd tell them to do differently next year, except fire
the entire coaching staff. Orlovsky is better than 0-16, and a lot of
other players have to be too. A decent college team could have managed to
win at least one of those games, if only by accident.

I have a problem seeing some comments and letters on PFB. They either come
up as blank screens or as ">s" and nothing else. It's a compatability
thing between XP2, my firewall and the site - or something like that. I
haven't been dumb enough to turn off my firewall.

Today I went to the public library, and used their computer to read some
letters I can't see at home. While I was at it, I wrote one of my own to
Coke.

Take one guess as to whether or not I can read it from home. It's a blank
screen. If anyone posts a comment, I can't answer because I can't see that
either! Grumble.
