    I want to thank everyone for noticing my change in appearance. I have been eating better and exercising and it is starting to show

    God and family, the rest is icing on the cake.

    I'm so far behind, I think I'm in first place.

    Pete,
    Congrats on the saw.... that would really give me fits after wrestling with it for a bit.... I spent about 3 hours yesterday on the end of my little Craftsman 18".. with a brand new chain.. and I'm sore in all the wrong places today...

    My parents taught me to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder to find any.
    If you go looking for trouble, it will usually find you.

    Personal Gloat!

    A chainsaw story:

    A city boy moved to the country and went into the hardware store to buy a chainsaw. He told the clerk that he had 10 acres with about 100 trees he wanted to cut and the trees were small maybe 2" in diameter at the most.

    The next day he returned to the store with the chainsaw and told the clerk that he needed something better. He said he spent 4 hours cutting trees and only managed to cut 3 trees down.

    The clerk took the saw, pulled the cord and the saw immediately took off making its "chainsaw noise".

    The customer looked in amazement and asked "what is that noise?

    I know it's corny, It was funny when I first heard it
