    No I'm not happy, Sarge. In fact, I feel kinda' bad. For you.

    Ya' see, I know how these squirrels have trained. They're so good that you've never even heard of the thousands of successful missions they've been on.

    Once they identify a threat, it must be eliminated. No reconsideration. No remorse. And no guilt whatsoever.

    It will be painful, Sarge. And it will last a looooooong time.

    Just take comfort in the fact that at some point in time, several months after it all begins, a squirrel/proctologist/commando will begin to insert a compressor hose somewhere in your body that I can't name in a public forum. That's a signal that the pain will be over in less than 72 hours.

    Seems like you got a lot of time on your hands; I'd of thought a lawyer would be much busier. Anyway, I forgot to tell you, the bullets were made out of "squirrel kryptonite." Tsk tsk!

    They are friends. They are clients. Big retainer clients. Every minute I talk to them gets billed. They insist upon it.

    And the bullets? The regular squirrels substituted play dough for the cryptonite bullets they captured last year. ALL of the cryptonite bullets.

    I'm not taking sides but, Sarge, you really had better take some precautions.

    Nice "secret weapon." A little box with a funny little drawing inside. Oh, the squirrels are sooooooo afraid!

    Of course squirrels is good. You might have to par boil an old one. Those old ones are the ones that don't wiggle their tails so fast. It would be a good idea to clean them soon if you don't know how. Warm things skin easy. You can cut around the body and pull both ways or cut at tail and step on the tail and pull. Good idea to cut the paws off first. The second option will leave the hind leg fur, but it's still easy. If you don't know how to clean them then it's a bugger. They rank high on taste. My grandma always wanted the heads when we got them. She liked the brains. It was always her part.

    Yep,we ate the brains when I was a kid too,but now they have linked that to the same thing that causes mad cow disease,so I forgo the brains,plus my youngest son would litterally die of a coronary f he saw mom eating a brain...

    Worse, if she had half a brain.

    You know, he walks in and you've finished half. That would leave you with half a brain. Okay, okay, I apologize. I'll go back to my corner now.

    Nope,don't apologize,cuz the kid really has that weak of a tummy,I don't let him anywhere near me when I am cleaning rabbits and chickens.

    Don't know where he got that from,because he has watched it since he was a little thing.

    Oh yea,I got your joke though,thats a good one.
