I want to go to the top of a really tall building, take a leak, finish, zip up, and then have my pee hit the ground. I want my entire pee to be airborne. Man I love beer.

Squirrel fires regular occurrence in Canadian border town
The Associated Press
OSOYOOS, British Columbia -- Once again, a squirrel clambering onto a power line has been blamed for a brush fire in this border town north of Oroville, Wash.
Firefighters were summoned Monday after a squirrel scrambled up a Fortis Inc. utility pole, got zapped and landed in flames on some dry brush outside a fruit packing business, Fire Chief Ross Driver said.
By the time a pumper truck and a bush truck arrived, nearby residents had doused the flames.
"This identical incident has happened on the same pole one or two times a year for the past several years," Driver said.
Each time, firefighters find a dead, burned squirrel at the base of the utility pole, he said.
Driver said he didn't know what Fortis could do to prevent future squirrel-caused fires.
