Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

I've thought of quite a few more myself. There seem to be many of these metaphors. It's interesting that there seem to be so many for birds. Maybe we'll really get to 100.

Cock of the Walk
Early Bird
Firebug
Homing Pigeon
Old Coot
Snake in the Grass
Watchdog
Wise Old Owl

Edit: And I just rememebered 'early bird'!
