It happens every morning, a terrified squirrel runs back and forth in

to do it intentionally although it is simply their inability to think
due to fear.
Funny, but something I've noticed around here (NJ), squirrels don't seem
to do that as much anymore. It must be Darwin at work, but now, only
occasionally will a squirrel act squirrelly. For the most part, they
head straight for a tree.
Something else I've noticed, a crow will hop perpendicularly out of the
road, and only as far as needed. Crows must be smarter than
squirrels. ;-)
Have you ever watched squirrels in your back yard? They are smarter
than the democrats as they learn from their mistakes. Figure a new way
to hang your bird feeder and see how long it takes before they have the
bird seed.
Squirrelly, they are just coming into their mating season, that is when
they become squirrelly. They are already chasing each other around our
yard. It also depends on the type of squirrels you are seeing. The
gray squirrels are more active than the larger fox squirrels. The grays
in our yard would run down the tree hit the squirrelly gig, just to spin
around a couple of times before they eat the corn. Sometimes after
eating they would do it a couple of more times.
I see that pelosi's puppet is helping out the people of New Orleans.
Under his budget the Corp will have 13% less money to maintain the
levies around New Orleans
He is also telling the radicals in Iraq today that he is giving up in
Iraq and if they just hold out until Aug 2010, they can do any thing
they want with the country. I hope he is not raising his children using
the same techniques.
