Always on the lookout for parades. We may actually attend one in the near distant future

Two sticks of dynamite should do it.

That'll do it...... unfortunately I can't use it. It's leaning towards the house and I am going to have to pull it away as it falls. I can't get an 8' wide truck through a 6' gate, so I will to get creative with some rigging to make it fall where I want it to

You can remove all branches from the house side, and use a come along, with a good back wedge cut.  The trunk likes to jump off the stump, so be careful.

When we removed a tree by my house, we cut the trunk down un sections, using rope to lower each section.  You need a second person to hold the rope from the ground, while you cut the sections.

Come on over and show me how it's done

No can do.  The AC in my truck gave out, but the truck does not like the new tires, anyway, and my Fiero needs a fuel tank.

Actually, I have to do some things for work, tomorrow.  I can do them remotely, but, if anything goes wrong, I don't want to be too far.  The last 2 IT companies got canned for screwing this up, and this is my first week doing IT for this company.

The agenda has been updated with notes.

I personally loved the new location. No one complained about the food. Mine was delicious! The waitress was very attentive and accommodating. The did put a 18% service charge/tip on the bill which was ok but a warning would have been nice. It was a bit crowded because of Mother's day weekend. I propose we meet there again to see if we get a repeat performance.

I also enjoyed the new venue. My food was very good.
I don't mind the added "service charge". It was fairly well spelled out. Once they get used to us, maybe they won't do that, although it may be policy. (They host a lot of large groups. The ROMEOS, and various car clubs, among them.) And yes, our waitperson was very efficient and pleasant. And very easy on the eyes, I should add.

It was also nice to meet Ralph and Gabe, after having many missed so many meetings. I almost felt like a newcomer. It was nice to meet Rob, too. I kind of got the idea that he was new, but I could be mistaken about that. Don't recall seeing him on any of the forums.

Good to see Charlie and Pat, as always. Missed a few folks who I thought would be there.

What, the wait staff didn't spill drinks on you?!  :D

When Ralph made the comment about "attentive", I was expecting the word "attractive", but figured he was trying to avoid that word.

To tell the whole truth, the WAITRESS was attractive and WE were attentive.
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Just wait.  Next time, Helga will be your waitress.  Of course, her name tag will show, "My name Peggy".
