Went to the company Christmas party tonight. All was well till the two years of ashplundth experience starts telling everyone at my table that I make what I make because I fly the 75 footer. I guess he's gonna take my truck to the 120' white oak over the primaries tomorrow. ***** is gonna learn why I am the man and he's a *****

You should've just clobbered him with a brick out in the parking lot. Why **** around. Lol
 
So I complained we take to much time off for cold weather so they put me on the golf coarse with a bucket trimming oaks for 3 days day one 15 degrees 35 to 40 mph gusts 20-25 sustained they were trying to break me haha except i was loving the fresh air hell I wasn't even cold. Takes more then that!

Just you!? That's a lot of trees to do in 3 days.

For me, this 9 to 2:30-ish crap is taking its toll. I mean it, I don't know how much longer I can keep it up 3 days a week.


Anyway:

We dropped the last tree this morning, it looked like a Norway maple, it was big and the logs were ugly so instead of me dealing with them a neighbor is bringing his backhoe down to wreck the place for me and take the wood. Must be desperate, bored or stupid.

Well he can have fun then, I got paid so far, still have to get the loader off the job but that all can sit til next year for all I am concerned

I got my ammo boxes and grenades, they seem to be a hit. I can't put mine down for long, I like to warm it on the stove and hold it. Tomorrow I am going to paint it.

I just got the boxes and bombs and got out of there because I love that store more than the arbo store. They had a nice Tree Surgeon's badge I thought would be nice for MDS.
 
Tree surgeon's badge sounds cool. I'm picturing me as like the Dirty Harry of the local tree scene,, lol... forget all that snitching and crying,, I could just skid onto their job site in a big old 70's boat (hubcaps flying), whip out the 44 and start plugging off tree vermin one by one. I figure with a couple tanks of gas and a few boxes of shells, I could have things cleaned up pretty quickly.:laugh:

They had those big leather DH holsters up there at the A and N. I was going to get a couple badges.


Just got done painting a grenade, just so happened I had enough cool brown paint in one can to paint one petard and it already feels better. They were sand blasted down to bare cast iron, they are the fragment type so they are really ****ing cool. The bottoms have been ground to omit the threads that would enable a person to fill and seal it. The primers, pin and handle look to be new. No firing pin but no dimple it the primer and the paint is not cracked or worn.
 
I am a little groggy as I was up all night painting my hand-grenades. So far I have a brown one and a gold one.

Have an at least you're not a paraplegic with bed sores and a catheter Christmas everybody!
 
Just a lot of paint fumes to huff.
Got a bit tipsy last night and the kids woke us up at 5:30 am. Nothing says Merry Christmas like a four year olds knee hitting your sack when you're sound asleep with a hangover! I'm doing good for 3 hours of sleep though. I wish everyone as great and beautiful day as I'm having. :cheers::havingarest:
 
Sick still. Got round 2 of the flu on Friday. Been able to **** through a keyhole since.
I should be cutting wood.
