Squirrel Update

Last October, I wrote about some aggressive squirrels at a local park here in Mountain View. Now, after months of debate, I'm happy to report that the city has settled on a solution. Apparently there are only five of these aggressive squirrels, so the city will trap them, take them away, and euthanize them with chloroform gas (as opposed to killing them with squirrel-crushing traps, which was the original plan).

My favorite part of the article is in the second-to-last paragraph:

No such attacks have been reported anywhere else in the city — or, for that matter, anywhere else in any city.

In other words, Mountain View has the most aggressive squirrels in the known world.

Maybe I should lock myself in my house until these squirrels have been dealt with. Just in case.
