Squirrel Taps

Taking over our communications, and minds.

Posted: 12/23/02

To me, more proof that these bushy, evil, demonic creatures are watching ourevery move, and are trying to take over our communications in an effort to create chaos.....

I work for the local cable company, servicing the cable internet service.
One of our major problems for years has been finding squirrel chewed lines over by poles, however, recently we have found that squirrels were not trying to just take our communications down but to tap into them.........As I went into an attic to find out why our customer was having problems using his internet service, I found a small nest that would usually be occupied by birds, yet, all I found was a few bones and several connectors inside the nest. To my amazement, I found that the cable line was comming in and out of the nest. After I took it apart, I discovered a wireless link device puncturing through the cable (well spliced too - human fingers could not do such precision work!). Attics do not usually have sunlight coming inside them, however, a small sunbeam seemed to come out of nowhere.....I followed the light just to find a direct line of sight connection to the closest pole where I saw 3 squirrels (as if in a conference). I was spotted within seconds. I saw one coming fast towards me runnig on the cable line that came from the pole to the house (I have only seen military personel walk through wires up high that fast, hmmmm), I went into a panic. I walked as
fast as I could to the attic exit, only to find myself surrounded by not 2
but 3 of these bastards. I thought I was done for. In a moment of
desperation, I decided to fall through the ceiling and into the customers
kitchen. In amazement, I only broke 1 ankle. I told the customer what I
had found, only to be laughed at by him and his family. As I got up, I
noticed that they had several cans of mixed nuts. The table and furniture were made up of what seemed very natural wood......no refrigerator......no dishes.....no utenciles. I never notice these things when I go in.....I was scared. They said I was nuts. Then offered me some. Then they proceeded to eat some with both their hands as they squatted.....with all my might I ran/hobbled. I got to my truck, only to find one of my tires flat, and nut shells on the passenger seat. Then I was hit on the back of the head with a blunt object. I passed out. I woke up about 2 hours ago by my supervisor who was wondering were I've been.....After I told him my story, he told me I was crazy, the house in front of where I was parked was empty. All the cable on the house had been pulled of the walls literally, and there
was nothing but both large and small footprints on the
carpet............................

There are traitors in our species, you will be betrayed.

I don't know if this is will be my last experience with these rodents, but I can only hope that they will let me be. I have since armed myself with
various knives and guns to protect me and my family. My dogs are my first line of defense if they decide to come. If they come, I will be brave, and if its war they want, WAR THEY'LL GET...
