Don't like them anywhere

The UK is one of the most regulated societys on earth, with cameras everywhere. No thanks.

The idealist and the pragmatist, ya'll aren't really as far apart as you think. Thanks to both.....Bill

Again total agreement, but like Jay says there's no stopping it. A lifetime of hair pulling, eye gouging, and ear biting, hasn't even slowed it down. Now back to my medications lol.

I'm with ya bro, I'm not into forcing anyone to do anything ever.

Went digging in my old piles of stuff today and found a copy of "Work Technique For Felling And Limbing", put out by Husky. My friend Mark Douglas is the local Husky dealer so I'm pretty sure it came from there, I just can't remember how long ago. It's a pretty thorough basic manual, with good...

Thanks Squisher, I just mean I've seen it on utube, and there's some basic stuff for anyone curious enough to look. I'm with Al though, the word mandatory, rubbs hard against the grain.

Can't remember ever hurting myself by taking a minute to get a better angle, or touch up a dull cutting tool. Frustration and dull tools are determined foes. Then there's the "hold my beer while I catch this here cottonmouth" kind of stuff. Always a privilege to witness a real campfire legend...

Every serious injury I ever suffered was toward the end of a long hard day. Fatigue and lack of focus for a split second was all it took. Daddy said if your gonna be stupid, your gonna have to be tough.
