The fire dept was especially lenient on us this year, but they still asked us to trim branches around the house... so today I was on the roof with the chainsaw and extension, buzzin' away...

All was going well, and then on the last branch I noticed the saw was out of oil. "aw geez, do I really wanna go back down and get the oil for just one branch?"
Uh... don't skimp the rules with machinery. ;P

Now I have a chainsaw stuck 40 feet up in a branch. LOL

Spent an hour trying to wriggle it out. I was thinking maybe I can squirt some oil up there, but maybe it'd be best to just borrow another saw to get them both down :D

Tomorrow...

What?!? Rod Hull is dead? And he died -that- way? How awful!

I still remember him (and Emu) fondly from the Hudson Brothers' show.

Actually, I haven't tried it yet: they were back-stocked and by the time it arrived, I'd already had a crew cut it. I did lend it to a friend with some monster-grass to cut, though: I'll get a full report on Wednesday!

Looking forward to the report!

And as you've probably wikipedia'd by now.. yeah.. terribly sad. I thought he was a hoot too. I remember spending a night or two looking at many of his fun ole vids online after I heard..
