Out here in the northeastern Mojave Desert there are rumors about "squivers." These rumors have persisted for years and to make these rumors even more rumorous, there is little hard data to shed light on the issue. So the rumor has it that the squivers were some manner of bio-morphological experiment being conducted in Area 51 and yes Area 51 is real and that is no bullshit. I've been there on site ... well ... a little ways in to Area 51 but I was most certainly there. Dang spooky site to say the least. There are armed military guards at the gates of which how many gates there are for Area 51 is "classified." The guards are armed and they don't cotton to strange dang truck drivers asking stupid questions about guns, classified operations at Area 51, and there are signs posted just about everywhere that indicate you'd better not deviate from the road you might be driving on so ... don't even try it. So non-military types are allowed access to very small areas within Area 51 and even that access is heavily restricted and there are more than enough security personnel packing serious military type weaponry you'd be a dang dead dumb ass to play cutesy with their off limits stuff. Anyway and back to the 'squivers' ... back in the day and how far back in the day is "classified" so ... the military and highly educational types like from Harvard, MIT, CalPoly Tech, and of course are pals at DARPA were fiddling around with the basic biologies and micro-molecular coagulations under radiologic exposure to see what might happen. One experiment, or so the rumor goes, the military/industrial research bozos exposed a squirrel and a beaver to whatever the fuck the kids were fooling with and ... as rumor has it ... there were offspring from the experiments and again ... as rumor has it ... some of the byproducts of experimentation escaped the facilities in Area 51. The creatures escaped and headed out into the environs of the Mojave Desert and were lost track of. So ... Area 51 is directly west from where the wife and I have pitched our condo and there is water. Yep. For real H2O and there are rivers, streams, springs all over the Mojave and most people don't bother with even knowing that. Water is after all the fluid component for all dang life on Planet Earth. So weird bio-created frankensteinishly dealies need water same as all of us. Anyway the critters made their way to wherever there was sustainable water and thus the rumors took on a life of its own design. Hmmm ... proof of 'intelligent design'? Well the Virgin river flows past where the misses and I squat and the Muddy River is a ways west so the "squivers" located themselves there and spread out to stake out areas where they could live, be free, roam, and reproduce. The squivers are notoriously skittish and have never been photographed or taken captive. However you can see where the squivers have been and that happens mostly after a decent rainstorm. Of which we had on Friday night and the squivers had been busy chomping down branches from trees and the like with the debris from their handy work was left littering the boulevards and avenues all the way down to the WallyWorld and there you go. I would really like to get a photag of one the little squivers as ... the little dickens are not much larger than a squirrel that has a pronounced flat tail and beaver teeth they use for gnawing on branches and various limbs of desert trees. So if one is ever discovered they'll take their rightful place along side the notorious 'jack-a-lope' which can be found at any number of visitor centers that are found scattered through out the Mojave Desert region. Now for Sunday machine art.
