I met a couple weeks ago with the son of the first guy who ever gave me a shot at the tree biz, logging in Maine in '77. The son is in the septic biz and we need a new one at the camp. I asked him if he knew this crazy mofo I had worked there with, Earl. The 2 stories about Earl that I remember from back then were that he had been in a bar fight so destructive that the bar got closed down from it. And Earl was a valuable hand bc he could cut and skid 10 cords/day by himself which was a righteous amount back then.
The son didn't know Earl but knew his older brother, Tom, who he said was the craziest one in the family. Said Tom would drink a six on his way to work, a six at lunch, and 24 on the way home. Said the only time he ever got cut he was sober.
I remember when I worked there, every guy would get dropped off in the morning at the landing by his wife or GF cuz all had revoked licenses due to DUI.

Sounds like more than a few of the logging crews I knew back in the 70's and 80's.
