Tyler, Texas - Shorty the Squirrel The City of Tyler, in order to please its squirrel-lovers, has finally replaced the gravestone of Shorty the Squirrel. It can be found in a flowerbed in the town square directly across the street from the Smith County Courthouse. As a citizen of Tyler, I am glad it is here and hope that it is not stolen again by another village idiot. [J.R. Garen, 11/06/2006]
