And one of the Old Ones reigns free once again...

A Pennsylvania couple trapped, of all things, a purple squirrel on Sunday. Percy and Connie Emert, of Jersey Shore, Pa. caught the unusual animal when trying to keep birds safe from the rodents.

"We have bird feeders out in our yard, and the squirrels are constantly into them," said Jersey Shore resident Connie Emert. "My husband traps them and then sets them free elsewhere so they don't get into your bird feeders."

Emert said she had spotted a purple squirrel on her property but no one believed her.

"I kept telling my husband I saw a purple one out in the yard. 'Oh sure you did' he kept telling me," said Emert. "Well, he checked the trap around noon on Sunday and sure enough, there it was."

Wait a minute. We have a town in Pennsylvania called Jersey Shore?

Apparently so. The Central PA Film Office actually wanted to bring the show there, because NJ rejected the permit for another season. It got turned down by the town, though:

Did you actually really not know that John?

I remember seeing the signs for it on Route 8 when I was driving out to the very first Otakon.

Heh heh heh. "Purple squirrel."
