Hand scribbled note is better than the dude running over your mailbox to send a message. Must have a nice guy driving the truck.

All day today I was absolutely convinced that UCF's coach is Darryl Dawkins and not Johnny Dawkins. I even mentioned it to a coworker.  Imagine my surprise when I finally realized Chocolate Thunder left us back in 2015 lmao  :facepalm:

I didn't realize until driving into the office today that we had sprung forward this weekend.  :shy:

Did you know chainsaw chains have to face a certain way?

So I've been chainsawing firewood at the cat ranch for a couple of years since I got a fancy Stihl Farm boss but a couple of months ago when I was out there the chain slipped for the first time (I was cutting at some weird elevated angle trying to prune an ancient apple tree) and I just stopped cutting wood for the day.

Yesterday comes and I take the chainsaw apart and put the chain back on the chainsaw and start attempting to cut some down some ewe(yew?) bushes here in KC and the I was getting nowhere. Like the chainsaw was running full steam but nothing was happening when I put it to the wood.

This went on for a couple of minutes before I realized something was not right and started thinking....Eventually I realized the chain may be on backwards, took it off, flipped it and it worked.

Felt like a huge dumbass afterwards but I cut those ewe(yews?) down in seconds after flipping the chain and then spent an hour digging out the stupid rootballs.

Chainsawing a bunch of ewes sounds like it would be a wooly mess

  You're not alone, ben ji.  I would add wrapping trimmer chord on the wrong way.  Apparently, the arrows on the disc are there for a reason.
