Lightbulb acorns in car

Just wanted to let every one know I found out there is a squirrel living in my garage so I guess it wasn't Mercedes's fault after all:o I guess some times the dealer is right!!

Haha smart squirrel.

Btw, don't let it bite you. Many of them have rabies.

rabid squirrels?

Please check your info. I doubt that "many" squirrels carry rabies. You may be thinking of plague-carrying fleas that might infest some squirrels in some areas. That's a lot of maybes and mights. There is enough histeria in this country now about potential disease threats. We don't need anymore.

I hardly think that a single comment about a squirrel on a MB forum is going to be a source of hysteria!

You mean that rabid squirrels may be Al-Qaida operatives?

Well at least they found out about the source of the problem, a squirrel with good taste in automobilles.

Whoa, sorry, guys

Geez, Guys,
I didn't mean for anyone to get their knickers in a knot over my comment. I merely asked the poster to please check his info. Yes, some of us here are a bit rabid about trying to keep the posts factually correct. No offense intended.

Jet, thanks for providing the correct spelling of hysteria. I knew it didn't look right, but couldn't dredge up the right combination of letters. :o

Gincharl, sorry to have derailed your nutty post. I'm glad the mystery is solved

Peace
Deb
