Can't believe it's 2012. Makes me feel old, and I'm only 23. :msp_tongue:

Last night was rough. 'Shine was flowing smoothly...a little too smoothly.

Huh? like real shine, like smooth #### or the stuff they use to poison raccoons out of the henhouse. I tried to make some once, looooong story. Hmmm, I wonder how much could fit in a flat rate box Hmmmmm :hmm3grin2orange:

Needless to say, but that's why he's blind in his left eye and has that facial tick now. :biggrin::biggrin:

I don't drink that cheap crap. This stuff is smoother than the $300 bottle of double malt from Scotland I had during college.

First thing I do is smell it. If it burns my nose I prolly won't like it. My bottle of Jack burns the sniffer worst than this stuff.

Put it this way, my wife drank it, and even she said it was smooth. That's sayin something. :hmm3grin2orange:

Happy new year to all!

Last week swimming in the lukewarm sea under the brightest blue sky, today scared to death cutting blow downs in the snow. Looks like they had a good storm here while we were over seas.

Easy living makes Jack a soft boy!

This was my Friday afternoon fun. We have had on and off storm force winds for the last couple of weeks. It's never much fun when they are in a heap instead of you being in control and falling them ! The Beech was 3' and had landed so it had tension all over the place just what I wanted ! I was back out today doing more of the same, it's all work.

thanks for the share.

I had one I swear! Wasn't much to look at. Just a tangle of crap which was all kind of swallowed up by the hill side. I needed lots of room to keep this thing going, which meant brushing out a lot of crap in its way. That picture was me laying directly under the lean.

I'm moving Monday to a job with a lot of juicy white oak I'm told. High canopy, mature, and hasn't been logged in several decades. And its flat! I can't wait. Now I just need winter to co-operate.


Dave K- That tangled crap just keeps your reflexes and puzzler sharp! Or sore.
