Are squirrels the new cats?

I’ve been running across a lot of squirrels on the internet lately.

This is the Conversation Rate squirrel.  As if you couldn’t tell from the bling.  I really don’t know what to make of a squirrel that can be hired for $50K a month.

On the more serious side, the squirrel fish is not a squirrel (er, fish?) to be messed with.

This squirrel (er, fish?) can crack some nuts.  In the past I’ve found that Safari’s JavaScript implementation leaves IE (decent with innerHTML, slow as molasses in January with DOM manipulation) and Mozilla’s SpiderMonkey in the dust.  To see the WebKit team beat their own benchmarks soundly is really quite a feat.
