My dad's older sister passed away early this morning, she was 74. Wasn't totally unexpected, she had been pretty sick for quite a while. She had non-alcoholic cirrhosis and broke her hip and it just spiraled from there. One thing I learned is cirrhosis is a really bad way to go. It's sad, she was a nice lady.
Sorry to hear this Joe.

Using a pole saw and you’ll end up with Popeye arms mine is only about 16 foot reach, is yours a stihl ?
Wasn't mine, it was green fiberglass rods that screwed together. No idea who made it. Don't think he paid a lot for it. Young kid trying to start a business. May bring him to Randy's gtg so he can learn something so he doesn't get hurt. Good kid, hard worker. I can't teach him as I am no pro. I err on the side of caution, and advised him to always do the same.

Once, I thought I was wrong, but I was mistaken. Lol
I know I have told this one on one thread or another but here goes

My dad had 2 dates written on the walls of his garage in welder's chalk

As an adult I finally asked him what those 2 dates were for

He told me that was the 2 times he had been right

Not yet. Already got a call from somebody I do a lot of side work with. Said he has to set trusses on a pole building next week so looks like I'll be helping him with that on Friday weather permitting

There have been numerous remains of Neanderthals and other archaic human remains discovered with the clear evidence of cancer evident on the bones

Pre tobacco obviously (New World vs Old World) and pre-alcohol as well

It has been with us a long long time
