Finally figured out why they have me using my mower up at the horse farm as I broke a blade which about hit my shin. What a bunch of pussies up there. All afraid to break their lawnmowers. Not me. I ain't afraid to break anything, in fact, I will.

Happened upon a 75 dollar .22 semi-auto at the Walmart the other day. Been waiting for that for 20 years. Got my range all set up including a pilfered bale of hay for the bow. Don't have to much in the way of semi-auto but it got me thinking, " Why are we paying taxes?"

Ever since I tried to get a dumpster in that farm they have been looking at the county owned access bridge. They dropped the weight limit to 7 tons from 10 which still does accommodate my trucks, and they cored it and have white paint all over it. The only other way in is through some bitter lady's property so I ask myself, " how much decrepit ***** will I eat"? In all honesty I am kinda looking forward to the chance. Is it me?

I used a friend's saddle the other day to set a rope in a conifer, he had a Lockjack on his lanyard. I don't think I would use one myself but I had no qualms about repelling down the stiff half inch 3 strand that I tied to my winch hook.

I have a canoe at my friend's house up from the horse farm and I think if it rains hard enough this weekend I might drive it down from his house to the horse farm where I am about sick and tired of all these horse farm chicks who think they are tough girls.

I was cutting the grass up there the other day when one came out in her underwear and said she was going to a concert. She had a cooler so I asked her for a beer, she went back into her house and brought me a warm beer so **** them. Really, that was a test and they ****ing failed. Good luck finding anybody else to clean up that ****ing farm. Bunch of ****ing slumlords is what they are. I never liked horse farmers. Scum, each and every one and I can prove it. The horses themselves are allright. I pulled a dead cherry off the fence the other day and got stung and started ******** and crying. The horses came over to see if I was OK but no one else.

Lots of dead oak trees right now.

Got my climb right pads for my spikes yesterday. So nice to climb pain free. I did two tall sugar pines next to a house. They thought it would take all day. Was able to piece one down, even with the bark falling off and some big cracks in it. Put some straps around it so it wouldn't fall a part on me while taking the top. The other dead pine over hung the house. I confused everybody when I srt'd up. I put in a tipping line and took a big top branches and all, then a big section, branches and all, then pulled over the stick with all the branches. Took 45 min. They had planed on limbing the whole thing first. Its funny how some people get stuck on doing things one way.
