The Homicidal Instincts of Kindergarteners
Taos, NM
3:23 p.m. 301 Linda Vista Ln. — Reporting party wants to report a squirrel that is dead by the Enos GarcÃa School. The reason she wants to report this is because children start off killing animals and then they turn to people.

So, how do we know the squirrel didn’t die of old age or bad walnuts or something non-child-related? Besides, I killed lots of squirrels when I was a kid (they’re considered vermin in many places, and it’s legal to shoot as many as you like), and I hardly ever kill people.

Amazing. One of the rare occasions when I am at a loss for words. All I can say is that the ‘reporting party’ needs to turn off the TV.

I’m with ya there, Mike. Me, personally, I had to take a break on the “long pork” because my back yard was starting to look a little hilly…

Yes, it is a very fine line between running down a squirrel in the street, and picking off dozens of innocent bystanders with an UZI from a clocktower. I know everytime I hit a squirrel with my car, I get this overwhelming urge to become a serial killer.

I think my gums are still scared (sp?) from eating it as a kid. I can still remember the ‘gum flesh’ hanging from the roof of my mouth.
(Enjoy your lunch.)
