    Look at what this nut did



    He was cutting ivy off the locust with his craftsman saw one sunday afternoon. Went a little deep on the left lower side huh? Thing is, That notch is headed right at his house.
    After he slit her open he put the saw back in the shed and went back to his grill.

    I'm no arborist, but I'd say duct tape would handle that, no questions.

    Hey ! It's just a little bit of wood. The tree has plenty left.

    Thats what i said! I watched the whole thing from the other side of my rifle scope inside my house while one of my neighbors lopped up this tree.
    I heard a saw start one sunday eve and jumped up to see who cause I know there aren't to many people around here able to operate one. Turns out noone around here is able but me.
    I would not have stopped him for all the tea in China. Hold on let me see if I have another pic

    Yup right at his house

    i understand people make mistakes, I really do. I think this guy is in a little denial right now. I told him I thought it was no good so he calls another idiot( another tree co) which was supposed to do something to save it ( what I don't know) but they haven't been able to get there. The Dan just watches.

    I am going to sue this guy for ruining the view from my bay window. This tree WAS a bee-uut. He sliced into that tree with as much thought as a fat kid eating another Tastycake.

    See? How does it feel to know you have been wrong the whole time?
    Thing is, that scope is real good. I could see everything. I thought he WAS going to send that puppy out on that notch. I was watching cause I thought he knew something I didn't.
    I will take a scope over binocs anyday.

    Carried away? heck thats just a good start. He wanted to land that tree in his living room. Right?
    Why people do what they do or the reason they do it, Is beyond me. I have a hard time understanding myself sometimes let alone what someone else is thinking.

    It has been a year by now. He was just trying to get the ivy off, it was very thick and he shouldn't own a saw. Really, there is no need for a guy like him to have one at all.
