Gotta agree with you, Race.  I can't stand Brussels Sprouts either.  I had an aunt who would not let us leave the table until we ate everything on our plates whenever she was baby-sitting us .

I learned to fall asleep sitting upright that way.  NO WAY would I eat them.  My brother just flung the plate across the room and endured the spanking.  After my parents found me asleep sitting up for the third time, we never had to be baby-sat by that particular aunt again.

I can't deal with mushrooms for some reason, and ever since my daughter was born, I cannot even look at asparagus.  Long story. ::)

cauliflower.  most of the time,  broccoli, too.  No matter how much I wash them, they still seem gritty to me.  Not a big fan of most fish, either.

never had brussel sprouts so can't comment on them.

The one dish that I can't stand to even be around is corned beef and cabbage.  I like corned beef, but just the smell of it cooking together turns my stomach.

The noodles are ok i can eat noodles by themselves covered in butter or something but i dont like the sauces i have yet to find a meat sauce that i like.  Though i do like the alfredo sauce i replace the other sauces with alfredo when i go to restaurant like if i get something like manicotti or something like that i will replace the regular sauce with the alfredo sauce.

Speaking of carnivorous squirrels- I was living on Queen Anne Hill in Seattle, a very densly populated area and one morning walking on my way to the car I notice two squirrels fighting it up.  "Cool!" I thought as I watched the bigger one run off the other.  "Oh Sh!t!" I exclaimed as he turned and began to stalk towards me.  This was no garden squirrel, this was a tough walking street squirrel who didn't appreciate my treading on his turf.  I had visions of him scampering up my legs and sinking his teeth into my neck.  I slowly backed away.
Later I laughed at myself for getting scared off, but I still always kept my eyes open for him.

I could never figure out why people think those tree rats are so cute.  If you ever want a kind of jolt caffeine will never develop, open the garage door one morning and discover a mama racoon and her pups scampering around on your car...

They're evil critters, Cat (not YOU the-person-named-Squirrel  ;))

There's only two ways I know of keeping them out of the urban garden.  A cat, or cats, preferably the large and tree-climbing type.  Lion dung sprinkled around the garden is effective, too (although a pound of primo lion dung is almost impossible to score unless you have underground connections)

Quoting:
I had a friend who put a LOT of time and effort into her flower and shrub garden and it was ruined by squirrels within a week.  They dug up every bulb she'd planted.  So I did a little surfing and learned that lion dung is a real deterrant (mixed with soil it's probably no more offensive than any fertilizer).
There are a couple of zoos in the area and I thought there wouldn't be a problem getting a sack of dung, but both zoos told me that it's against the law to give, or sell, any animal waste product.  Especially that of wild animals.  Lord knows why...
