In the dentists waiting room yesterday.
Dad and approx 10 year old son enter the room, dads points to a chair and tells boy to sit on it. Boy ignores him and sits on the floor, which makes me smile.
Boy to me, loudly and with some force "What you smiling at baldy?"
Which makes me laugh…...That was not the right thing to do.
There followed much more invective.
I decided best thing to do was close my eyes and ignore him.
About 2 minutes later "Dad, that mans dead"

I am sort of afraid to use it because it is so powerful. But my Uncle (who is like my Dad) hooked me up with his chainsaw today. I am so grateful to have it. It is meant for a 30+ inch bar but he had a 16" on it. It's like at least 40 years old.
I am quite comfortable using a smaller saw, like the one in the background. This one is like 10 pounds heavier and way more powerful.

It’s hard to beat a Stihl. I have had my 260 Pro for close to 15 years and it still runs great. I mostly use it with a 16” bar, just because that’s what I’m used too. Enjoy and be safe.

Interesting. Most of us are complying to the last line:
Also, you don’t need to wash your blue jeans so damn much. Just saying.

@adam313:
Fuck 2020.
I saw what happened on IG. I’m truly sorry. It’s a double whammy I guess, as it is both a question of damage to your livelihood but also the destruction of something you’ve loved, and nurtured. It must be gut wrenching.
For those unaware, Adam is a cannabis farmer. An entirely legal business in his state in the USA. He has lost crops recently as a result of unseasonal blizzards. The pictures on IG are quite dramatic.
He is refraining (admirably), from being specific about the source of his distress, as we have asked him not to post too many references to his work here. This is because his line of work and the plant he farms remain illegal in many parts of the world and as an international forum we try to tread carefully around these issues.

Adam - Really, really sorry to hear that bro! My thoughts and prayers are most certainly with you old chap!

I have no more tears to shed. Thanks everyone for the support. Shattered dreams and aspirations is all that’s left. Having only one harvest a year makes this an absolute nightmare. Had the biggest, healthiest plants yet, we were far ahead of last years pace on plant care and pruning. We were set for a record crop from the 6000 plant farm. Most are now a complete loss
