It was meant for Stig. I didn't check back with this thread for almost a month due to the shame I feel when I'm too honest with somebody. I thought I'd relate something I learned about local hockey that might generate a laugh or two. Instead I had to hear about how high somebody can kick...

Maybe they'll learn more the next time a bat bites a chicken in a wet market that's located beside a lab that develops viruses and then some how infects the entire world.

I'm only defending them because they're "Manitoba" maples. We have a ton of them and I must concur most are not aesthetically pleasing but who are we to judge what nature has wrought?

I was reading that the Box Elder was a shit tree so I went through some old pics to find a nice one and show some love. Posted a few other random ones that someone might find interesting.

I'm going to avoid future interactions with you when I can. I thought I'd give it a try but it doesn't feel like something I'm interested in pursuing any further. I get a terrible vibe from you but don't take it personal, its my problem.

Well, I never thought someone would find risking concussion/spinal injury as less of an offense then having someone's "feelings" possibly (not likely) be hurt by a slang word, but there you have it.

Are you referring to the emasculation of North America that is so glaringly obvious to the rest of the world?

A guy I work with coaches junior hockey. 1 game suspension for Gross Misconduct (checking from behind) and 5 game suspension if the ref hears you call an opponent a pussy. Makes sense, eh?

For myself, I hadn't done a physical/bloodwork my adult life and when I was pre-op to scope a meniscus tear, the heart rate monitor alarm was going off due to a low heart rate (low 40's). Bloodwork was performed and a pill prescribed.

@Knotorious My wife and I have underactive thyroids, my mom has overactive. We all take a pill a day to infinity. Treebilly's dr. said there was a possibility that after bloodwork, he would be on a pill a day for the rest of his life. If that was the case, I was relating that it was no big...

I can see where some of your interactions go south whether intentional or not. Have a good sleep.

I'm on that pill as well as my wife and recently my mother. No big whoop. I take it upon waking everyday with 500 ml of room temp water which we all should be drinking upon waking anyway or so I've heard.

I don't think about retiring as much as just paying off my mortgage. I'll keep working right to the point where I dig a hole and pull the dirt in on myself with my last breath.

It is not meant for cuts further out on the branch where the branch becomes flexible. In other words, the tool is not designed for pruning fruit trees or ornamentals. Attempting to make such cuts will result in frustration and possible damage to the pruning head's blades. I would still be the...

I thought it was going to be a re-top but it's a raise and gut! Great background as usual.
