"A strange case of vandalism was solved Thursday, when a squirrel was caught vandalizing a math professor's bicycle at Iowa Lakes Community College.
The ravenous rodent chewed through two tires, a bicycle seat, a headlight and a taillight in incidents Wednesday and Thursday."
“There was no damage done to any metal,” said Strom, an associate professor of mathematics. “It was all soft materials like plastic and rubber.”
Shortly after the police left, aviation instructor Ron Duer spied a squirrel chewing on the seat of Strom's bike. He took a photo of the animal chewing on a tire."
The photo solved a mystery of how anyone could repeatedly vandalize Strom’s bicycle in front of a busy building entrance without getting caught, said Iowa Lakes spokeswoman Tricia Morfitt.
"If somebody is walking by doing this, how is nobody seeing them doing it?" she said."

Drew looks like his napping at the plate.
#RedSox is ahead of #Benghazi in the twitter trend.
It is what it is?
What is it?
I don't want to say.
Is there a reliable Baseball to English translation?
Baseball to Spanish translation?
Baseball to ASL translation?
Because napping at the plate could be three things, four, if you count actual nap, and five if you count nap as neck, six if you count causing fibers of cloth to lay in uniform direction.
* being tagged on a base steal
* choking at the plate
* sliding to a dirt nap
(but a dirt nap means sleeping forever and being buried, not sliding in dirt across a plate so that one doesn't make sense.)
Drew looks lethargic at the plate.
How is that?
Germans can't even say squirrel...
I have taught classes for Central Texas College, Greenville Technical College, and The University of Maryland-Overseas. It is my understanding that Professors at Universities resent people like me calling ourselves 'Professors'. Evan though that was part of my official title. So, I never have.
Never mind that high school teachers are called 'Professori' in Italy and other countries.
Squirrel!
