Drinking is a hobby right?

I sometimes wonder what goodies these folks got stashed in the back room for breaktime.

[Prepared One]

My deceased wife came home from shopping to find me and my neighbor out front of my house with a chainsaw, rope, climbing lanyard, beer in our hands, and a cooler at our feet. We were both looking up at this huge pine tree that had pine Beatles. She pulls up, rolls the window down and said I don't like the looks of this. She asked what were we planning and I told her. She asked why we need the beer. I said we have to think on it first. She asked how long we have been thinking, I tell her about an hour or so. She puts the car in reverse, says she is going back out to shop, she didn't want to be there when the police and the ambulance showed up.

Funny, we decided after a few more beers not to top it but to bring it down in the Cul de sac. By the time we were ready with the rigging and getting ready to cut we had half the neighborhood watching. Some actually brought out their lawn chairs and coolers. I think there were bets on which one of us two was going to get killed or weather or not the tree falls on my house. We dropped that pine right were we planned. I figure it was them thinking beers that did it.

I have always made a game of spray painting an red "X" on the ground of where I want the tree to land at, and then see how close I can manage to get it when it falls. Sometimes really really close. Other times not exactly where I wanted but no harm done.

And yes, always beer involved!
