Squirrels -- Cute and Pure Evil

Squirrels and I have a history. Pretty much every day for the past three or four years, I would walk to and from my car at work and if I saw one of those little furry creatures, I would chase it. No, I don't act like a grown up. Anyway, I was only able to actually catch one ONCE as it panicked while perched atop a trash can. Fearing rabies, I quickly yanked and released the squirrel's tail. Ever since that point, the squirrels on the typical route to my car would hiss at me. It was a bit daunting because they would be up in the trees and I could hear them but spotting them was difficult. They really hated me. And I'm sure they told others in the animal kingdom about me because a little over a month ago a birth flew into me and flew off. Kamikaze mission?

The reason I mentioned this is because I came across this article that mentioned that a squirrel was responsible for the electrocution death of a power company worker. I guess what I'm saying is "be careful". The squirrels are pissed and I think it's my fault.
