Don’t you hate it when…

[Vaquero]

Lol.
No.

I can't remember the last time I fell.

Better be knocking on some high end wood.

Trust me.
I'm thankful.

I can.

 

[General Zod]

I can.

So...you pushed him?

 

[General Zod]

Four of the last five times I fell were because of hidden gopher holes in my yard, hidden under the grass. Those hurt.

So hard he can’t even remember it. It wasn’t personal though. He was going to get hit by a train.

I dunno, pushing a man in front of a train sounds personal...

hidden gopher holes in my yard

I had a similar incidence. I was chasing a nephew when I fell into a hole...ended up bruising a couple ribs when I landed.

I fell this weekend....with a chainsaw.

I was clearing a fallen tree near my tank. The ground was still saturated and soft. I stepped on a spot that immediately sank about an inch, and I went over. I'm no lumberjack; but I remember reading that, if a lumberjack falls, he throws the chainsaw as far from him as he can. And I did just that with my electric Ryobi.

Came out uninjured....and the chainsaw is fine, too.

No texas chainsaw massacre?

Good Very Good.

Dammit. That is sketchy. Glad you didn’t gnaw a chunk out of your leg!

Thank you for the full account. We of TGT were concerned about the chain saw.

ELECTRIC chainsaw.....I is environmentally friendly, after all....

My heb has The Signs. Fk heb.

However, I tripped in wallywhirl garden one joyous holiday season and rode a pre lit artificial Christmas tree to the floor. The lady at the register kept swiping as if I didn’t exist and the 30 or so overwrought shoppers were like “I don’t care if he’s dead I’m not getting out of this line.” When I stood the tree back up it looked more like a Saguaro cactus. Merry effin Christmas

I gave up my electric for a 20v Dewalt... I love the thing! Stuff up to 7" cut easy and that's as big as will roll into my stove without splitting anyway. Nice about either battery or electric is how fast they stop, but the lack of a cord makes battery a winner.

Thursday is down for my next firewood cut; hopefully the last of the year.

Those’ll break an ankle.

My yard's full of 'armadillo' holes...and I've tried to get rid of them the 'old fashioned way'...doesn't work, - there's a bunch of new ones waiting to replace the previous gang...

1/4 stick or 1/2 stick?
