I know that Squirrel-gate 2008 has taken over your life as much as it has mine so I thought I would post an update. Sawyer was distracted by McDonald's and a nap until Bryan got home and then it was all squirrel, all the time. Fun!
The weird thing is, the squirrel didn't appear on our sidewalk by itself. Apparently, when Bryan left that morning at 6 am, he noticed a flattened squirrel in the street in front of our Obama yard sign. The lot that our house sits on is as long as a city block so our yard signs and the squirrel were quite far from the house. He didn't think anything about it until coming home.
So the question is: Did someone throw the squirrel into our yard to get it out of the street and it just happened to land on the sidewalk? Or did someone purposefully take the squirrel and put it on our sidewalk? Either way, thanks roadkill conscious pedestrian!
I can't help but wonder if it was in fact placed on purpose. This really annoys me because if I think it was placed on purpose - my next thought is - it was placed in our yard because of the yard sign. Why else? We don't really know any of our neighbors so I doubt it was one of them. It could have been some pesky neighborhood kids but what kids are out on a Sunday morning between 6 am and 10 am? It makes me wonder.
We live in a 'blue town' in a 'red state' and we proudly support Obama. No big whoop, right? Wrong. The day that we put our Obama bumper sticker on the car, Bryan was screamed at in the Homeland parking lot. He actually contemplated calling the police because of some of the things that were said but then decided that it was an isolated incident. Hopefully, it was.

I bought Obama signs for us and two of our neighbors. Within a week or two, all were stolen, so i bought more. Then to spite whoever did it, I went to several houses in the neighborhood to try to register people to vote. Ha! The joke got turned around!
