This is funnier than David Barry's stuff.

And that's saying something.

Paging Laz's Angels. This is the singularly funniest thing I have read in months.

Do not drink liquids while reading this. You have been warned.

That happens to me at least once a week. Good thing it's winter, and the scoots (mostly) stay garaged.

My rule of thumb, vis-a-vis road critters vs. motorcycles, is simple: "If you couldn't eat it in one sitting, don't hit it."

So squirrels are fair game.

Outstanding Laz. It's been a long time since I've ridden a bike, but this one had me laughing so hard my eyes were watering

I laughed until I cried and I am very thankful that I wasn't trying to eat or drink.

Mother Nature is out to kill you. I am convinced of that.

Thanks for the laugh Laz!

DO NOT drink liquids while reading this. You may choke and you certainly will lose the keyboard.

Sorry to bring up an unpleasant possibility.

One reason for aggressive animal behavior is rabies.

OMG! I am laughing my head off!

It's particularly apropos because my dog just killed a possum under the porch and I spent 20 minutes trying to get the corpus delicti of said possum untangled from my suddenly very possessive dog. She's a Lab, but she figures that she doesn't have to bring me anything she obtained by her own unaided efforts . . .

And then I come in here, sit down, and read about the Squirrel from Hades . . . just perfect!

My dog still smells like possum. It must have p*$$ed on her.

Great Story.

I've got an animal/motorcycle story, not nearly as funny, but it's true and I'll tell it anyway.

I'm riding my bike in an urban neighborhood when I spot a snake sleeping in the road. I didn't want to run him over so I stopped short. It was about dark and I couldn't see what type of snake he was, only that he was nearly 6 feet long. About then the snake wakes up and heads for the nearest cover, my bike. Next thing I know, he's in my front wheel and headed up the forks, finally arriving at my left handlebar, curled around the clutch lever.

Still not knowing if he's poisonous and being more than a little nervous about reaching for the clutch, I push the bike off with my foot and gingerly drop the tranny into gear. With the snake waving around uncomfortably close to my exposed face and testing the air with his tongue, I lurched away and into a nearby parking lot with a street light. There I discover he's a harmless black snake and extract him from my front forks.

I want to take him out in the country before releasing him, but I have no way to carry him while I ride. Luckily, there's a McDonald's next door, so I walk over, hiding my snake behind my back as I go in. I ask the closest burger flipper for a bag, but she balks, saying she's not allowed to give them away. I persist and she asks what it's for, whereupon I produce my wriggling friend and tell her its for my snake. She screams and runs to the back for the manager. He quickly assesses the situation and decides a bag is a small price to pay to get the two of us out of his store, even if it was against company policy. Since then I've often wondered if would also have given me the contents of the cash register if I had asked. He didn't even ask if I wanted fries.

With the snake safely in the paper bag I rode several miles out of town and released him into some woods.

If it's true, the critter was most likely rabid. The author needs a checkup...
