    Suicide Squirrel

    If you've never read this guy's site, you need to now. It's fairly informative, and written in a Hunter S Thompson Gonzoish way that leaves you fighting for air about halfway through one of the articles.

      I had seen that one before. If I had not already been 100% convinced that squirrels are evil incarnate, that would have clinched the deal.

      I do have to admit though, that I had tears streaming down my face and was hoarse from laughing the first time I read that.

              Dan has quite a few articles on line that will keep you glued to the computer. His writing is very interesting. He also has several Life Is A Road books published that you can order from his website. He has the Squirrel article on the Virago site, so he is still a Yamaha person.

                  Be sure to check out "Well Oiled Machine". It is one of his earlier pieces, and a great example of his style.
