| Baby Squirrelby Kevin Bennett
 Today, I saw
                my first baby squirrel.  Hardcore and manly
                gentlemen, this is a message for all of you:
                beware!!! I was an
                unsuspecting victim, just walking back from a
                regular bout of pine-tree calisthenics (chopping
                down the biggest conifer you can find and then
                curling it, in typical manly lumberjack fashion)
                when the little bugger skittered to the bottom of
                a freshly bloomed deciduous tree and stared up at
                me with Bambi eyes that could melt a diamond.
                Well, I saw that cute, twitching little squirrel
                face and on the spot I grew a vagina and lost my
                Adam's apple. Men, listen
                carefully: Avoid baby squirrels. They are so
                fiendishly adorable that they will transgender
                you. You could be
                walking along, thinking about nothing but smoking
                twenty of the most pungent cigars, drinking a
                dark-beer keg by yourself and punching a buffalo
                in the face, when suddenly a baby grey-squirrel
                skitters by with its twitchy whiskers and fuzzy
                tail and over-accentuated baby-squirrel
                featuresbefore I knew it I was naked in a
                bubble-bath with sea-salt, listening to Celine
                Dion and reading an Oprah magazine. When I came to,
                I yelped and jumped out of the water, screaming
                in a high-pitched tone that made the guys outside
                hope a naked chick would run out of the bathroom. I had to
                dropkick a toddler and rape a cactus just to feel
                like I knew what a penis was again. Beware baby
                squirrels, they will turn your heart into
                estrogenic jelly. |
