“Squirrels are the Devil’s oven mitts.”
That quote turns up in The Book of General Ignorance a marvelous collection of trivia, facts and myth busting that goes nicely with The Origins of the Specious.
It’s attributed to Miss Piggy but there’s no sign of it anywhere on the Internet, even on Muppet fora.
Doesn’t matter who said; it’s hysterically funny especially for those of us who find the critters a lot less cute and cuddly than they seem.
Not all squirrels are Miss Suzy, you see.
