Ever play hooky from work to cut wood?

He was supposed to be Polish. His real name is Charles Buchinski and was the son of a Lithuanian immigrant coal miner, but was born in PA.

Well, slap my fanny and call me a snackey, that's a new one on me! I always assumed he was part indian or mexican with that dark skin, squinty eyes and whispy moustache. That just rocked my whole world, now. How am I ever going to get to sleep tonight? I'll be thinking about Bronson and his family heritage! :msp_mad:

Hell, I bring my saw to work sometimes and cut hardwood pallets to burn in my wood stove! The rednecks around here say the nails hold the heat in

When he was first starting out, he used his real name in the credits. I saw one oldie recently where he had a bit part and is in the credits as Buchinski. I think it was called "Crime Wave", had Sterling Hayden in it.

In answer to the OP's question, no, never called in. But I have, on several occasions, taken a full week of vacation to cut and split wood. Somehow, that sounds way more twisted than calling in sick.

Then there are those that say that cutting wood is sick...
