comet almost caught a squirrel eating pumpkin or a pumpkin eating squirrel and it was furry exciting kids. i am as readers know ambivalent about squirrels and chicago global warming and i admit i was not too emphatic in calling him in, watching the squirrel hang precariously upside down a minute from the roof beam. not that he was listening to me much anyway. he's got a lot of wilderness in him and i love to see him dance.
