Default Personal things you don't need to know

April 4th, 2022, 23:02
The houses with a ceiling at 220 are still being sold, bought and rented every day.
Most houses with a ceiling of 2 mtr are demolished and replaced with new ones, who have to have ceilings at 260 cm. Unless for some reason the authorities think the house has historic, monumental value.
We have a crowded country so we need every bit of space.

A similar thing will most likely happen with the house of my grandparents.

So yeah, Taylor Hawkins passed on March twenty-fifth of this year, and by accident I came across a five minute or so video on what he meant as a friend to Perry Farrell. I knew they were mates yet I didn't realize just how close they were, beyond simply friends. Well worth checking out and likely easily findable on youtube.

Spring is here. S-p-ring is here. Life is skiitles (whatever that is) and life is beer.

Among the things to start doing now is:
loading…


and firing up my petrol powered lawn-and-whatever-is-there mower, which I call Rammstein:
loading…


and - and this is what I did today - going berserk, massacring unruly trees and bushes in the garden.
loading…


Well, not exactly that way. Got myself a bright new (cheap, probably won't last long but its got all the necessary security hardware and I'm only going to use if this summer. Probably.) chainsaw. Have no fear, I'm not even tempted to apply it on vertebrates (people, wife included). Unlike my paint sprayer, which I was tempted (not overly) to use (just a little bit) on non-vital parts of the wife.

pibbuR whose only outside-common-targets use of the sprayer was on himself. And the car.

Mostly done with eliminating stuff from my garden.



In the picture, you can see yours truly happily standing with his chainsaw where there once was a hedge.

pibbuR who (with pleasure) notices that the chainsaw (which he may call "Doom Thing") makes more noise than his petrol powered lawn-and-whatever-is-there mower (which he calls "Rammstein"). It may even surpass the sound of the carnifex playing metal on his porch.

PS: One additional result: Since I very seldom do work like that, my arms are aching. And my tennis-elbowish elbow has reacted hostilely (observe that I don't play the mentioned sport). Some may regard this as a kind of revenge. DS.

PPS. I'm not completely done. Unfortunately, the electricity powered chainsaw disagrees with the current weather conditions. But fortunately the remaining units of wood are not very massive, and therefore vulnerable to actions using my newly aquired (and therefore very sharp) Luna A550 7TPI UNIVERSAL handsaw.

Pretty soon you're going to need a chainsaw to cut that hair.

Ages ago, people had no electricity.
And, even further into the past, they had only flintstones.
They still managed to cut trees down, though.

They did. But it took a much longer time. And wasn't nearly as fun.

pibbuR who recently also bought an angle grinder, to use on walls in his cellar. Muahahahahaha!!!!!!!
