I have one that frequents my yard, wondering why the chipmunk gets hand fed and he gets nothing. It's because the owner spent a great deal getting squirrels out of the walls and ceiling and I don't want to encourage any more. Plus he has a thuggish look that I don't like.

Per my understanding, the American red squirrel (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus) is a very different proposition from our European r.s. (Sciurus vulgaris). As PPs say, the American creature is a tough cookie -- in contrast with Britain's sweet, but retiring and timorous, red squirrel. I've long felt that we over here, need a red-squirrel equivalent of Richard Adams's General Woundwort, to rally his species and take the fight back to the grey invaders !

That would definitely explain it! I thought all red squirrels were the same species. (silly assumption, I know)

Across the highway from my mobile home park is a gentlemen's club. The owner changes his board every few days, and his latest sign says "Gluten Free Dancers"

A few years ago I was driving by a store that apparently sold a very eclectic range of merchandise. In the window was a sign:

Divorce kits
Knives
Swords

One near my brother's house where the road crosses a small river. Apparently he had always taken it at face value - i.e. drive carefully because of said animals.  He says he hasn't been able to pass it without laughing after I commented that it was sadly judgemental.   :P

The sign?
