I helped a squirrel commit suicide
Yep and I feel good about it.
Seems me and animals have it in for each other lately. I turn the corner off the highway ad am driving down a nice tree lined street like I do every day and a squirrel runs into the road. Now you have to understand that he ran into the road by about 8 feet so he is still kinda on the edge of it and he is about 100 yards ahead of me.
So of course I think to myself, "hey check out that squirrel, he will move as I get closer." So I continue my maddening speed of 25mph barreling down the road almost out of control...yeah right..and sure enough this fucker is staring me down. I mean he is sitting 8 feet into the road with a crazy man in a truck that weighs 6500 or so pounds coming right at him, and I swear he gave me the finger.
Anyways I get closer and closer and he doesn't even flinch...neither did I. I looked in my rear view mirror and sure enough nothing but a pancake in my rear view.
So I get to the stop sign to make my turn at the end of this little road and the car behind me honks at me, I look in my mirror and notice the lady is getting out to come up to my truck...great this is gonna be fun. She proceeds to tell me that she saw what happened and that I didn't so much as tap my brakes or try to avoid the animal. I just looked at her and said, "Would you rather I run off the road and wreck my truck for an animal with the brain of a small peanut or let nature take it's course? I am in a hurry to get home so if you would just call the cops and report my plates I would be much obliged, have a nice day and thanks for your concern."
I then drove off and haven't heard from the cops yet. :chuckles:
