Oklahoma skwerls

I have a Yahoo news alert for every article containing the word "squirrel", and every single day I get alerted to a power outage somewhere in these United States due to a suicidal skwerl. I usually ignore them, but this one was notable because it's in the town where my grandparents and my Aunt Patti live.

Durn varmints. You'd think somebody'd figure out how to keep the rats out of the electrical works. They sure do cause a lot of inconvenience when they decide to electrocute themselves in the substation.
