What to do When a High-Wire Act Goes Horribly Wrong

Step-1: Google: electrocution by power lines.
Step-2: Gather up the necessary materials: two thick plastic trash bags, a cardbord box, a square shovel
Steps-3 through 8: 

• Designate a bag-holder while Mama does the dirty work, gently working the shovel between the body and the driveway. 
• Scoop the stiffened corpse up and into the bag as the bag-holder blanches and turns away. 
• Place the intitial body-bag inside the secondary bag and tie using a series of granny knots. 
• Put the double-bagged bag into the box and tape it up.
• Quick eulogy. "He was a good squirrel who liked to take risks…"
• Set the box alongside the trash barrel.

Step-9: Wait on pins and needles for garbage pickup Thursday.
