You may not think this funny, but pay attention to fact:

During the fall, there are large amounts of dead squirrels in the road. I found out why.

In the fall, the plants that the squirrels and various other critters like to eat begin to ferment. When they do, they release an alcoholic substance and when the animals eat this, they become potted. They then wander into the road and then BAM! They're dead.

So, the moral of this lesson is this: BEWARE OF DRUNKEN SQUIRRELS.
