Man Trip 2006:
Kill
the Trees Before The Trees Kill You!
Trees
are shifty bastards. One day they're giving you some friendly shade, the
next day they're bashing down everything in sight. You got to keep an eye on
them, if you know what I mean...Can't be trusted.
After a particularly aggressive confrontation with the trees this spring,
I made the executive decision to perform some ethnic cleansing. I asked our
log executioner to round up all the sweetgums (sweet my butt!) and send them
to the sawmill. You know, make an example of them. Riots ensued. I sent in
the special forces loggers and eliminated half the population of loblolly
pines to scare the remaining trees into abiding by the rules. My rules!!
So far, it looks like these intensive measures have quelled the uprising
of trees; however, I recommend that you keep your eyes open this Man Trip.
Those bastards will sneak right up on you if you're not paying attention.
Choate - Out.
