This is something you don't see every day. (Actually, you won't see it today, either.)
Lindsey Millar, 23, and her brother, Tony, 22, were both home Wednesday at about 12:45 p.m. when Lindsey's car suddenly started burning outside their 42nd Street home.

Tony Millar said firefighters told them it was the work of a buck-toothed saboteur that had been gnawing on overhead power lines connected to a transformer directly above the 2006 Toyota Camry.

"The squirrel chewed through the wire, was set on fire, fell down directly to where the car was," Tony Millar said. "The squirrel, on fire, slid into the engine compartment and blew up the car.
"They're always coming around here, chewing through the garbage," he added.

Biology is just physics that has begun to smell bad.” —HalfMooner

Sounds like Al Quaeda is training squirrels now. Get Homeland Security in there quick, and send a few of the residents to Gitmo, somebody has to know something.

They keep talking about hiding "nuts" must be some kind of terrorist code for planting bombs.
