No word on the condition of the squirrels.


A couple of weeks ago, about 16,000 people (including yours truly) were without power in East Austin for several hours.
The culprit? A poor snake entered a substation and slithered when it should have slathered. When asked what kind of snake, Austin Energy officials responded with one word: “Crispy.”
(OK, I made up that quote. It was actually a rat snake.)
Bravo. Excellent attention to detail; you knew exactly what your readers would be asking.
