Just when I was getting a good chuckle out of his outlandish drivel!:girlytantrum

Having a slow day at work? :heeheehee

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Guilty as charged. The calm before the storm...........

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Well, I'm crying it will cost us approx $2,000 to cut down a couple of pine trees from the drought. "Are they twice as tall as your house?" "Yes" Such has been my day. Arghhh!

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Wow. I'm sure you'll be getting a second opinion on that! Unless all the tree service companies have raised their rates uniformly, supply and demand, et al.

Don't y'all have a chain saw?

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

I'm checking on it. Looks like most are pricing it the same. They are huge trees, but better than falling on the house during the next tropical storm. I never liked them anyway - pine cones all over the yard. I didn't have a use for them.

I could have found something else to do with that money though. :bigbaby

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Yes, Cindy, we do. But they are way too tall. I'm not prepared for my husband to die at this time. LOL!

Funny story, (sorry MP, I'm hijacking your thread, but you're bored anyway),

I was buying some ice cream for my husband yesterday and this man in front of me said, "You must have seen us purchase ice cream and went back to get some."

I said, "No, I didn't see it. My husbands been working 7 days a week and I wanted to get him something special."

He said, "Well, nice to see our wives are looking out for us."

I said, "It's not really healthy, so we are probably just waiting around for the insurance money."

He thought I was serious. :toofunny

:heeheehee And you weren't?

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Depends on what day you ask me, Michaeldillio. :heeheehee

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Ya, it's kind of slow at work for me too (not a bad thing). It is always fun to have ONE person like Bert hanging around. Of course this is the same attitude that many UC boards have where they like having ONE liberal around that they can gang up on and amen each other after "putting him in his place!". Bert was just too easy of a target. :)

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

I could never be that bored to participate with that kind of poster. :heeheehee

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Oh, he was fun to zing one liners at. It was actually a little irritating that some composed some rather substantial posts for him. It is like trying to argue with a fool, the more you do the more that other people watching cannot tell who is who.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

You're police car post was brilliant. I don't always read all the threads, but was on the phone and running through a few. I would have commented, but I wasn't that bored, as I said. LOL!

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

:lol

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

If your really bored watch the latest video I posted on the Sasquatch! thread. :) It is just a few seconds under 20 minutes long.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

LOL! MP is bored. He will probably watch it. :heeheehee

what kind of a name is ohOHohOH? some kind of sexual repression...

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Yikes! If I was facing that I would be your initials'd!!!

Now I am worried because we have one tall precarious tree in our yard about twice as tall as our two story house. I think lightning struck it a few years ago and so part of it is gone. I will freak out if we have to spend $1,000 to get it cut down.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

LOL! It costs less if they can leave the wood behind, but I don't think we want to do that. It's just too much to burn and we aren't guaranteed this rain will keep up by the time the tree is totally dried to burn. Plus, I don't want to fill our vacant lot, even though it's fenced in, with a load of wood you can't use for a BBQ. LOL!

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

If the trees are anywhere close to electrical lines, call your electric company and tell them that you are getting ready to cut your trees but are afraid they might take down power lines when it falls. Sometimes they will come and cut em down for ya... or at least the tops of the trees. then all u have to do is to cut it up and sell it for firewood. Or advertise it as free firewood..u cut and haul. Many times people with fireplaces will come and get it.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

estupido en la cabesa....

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Not a good idea to put pine in a fireplace. It's sappy and pops. They aren't by any powerlines.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

that ís exactly what i thought when i read his name

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Speaking of tree removal, I removed this 100' Sycamore Thursday.

P.O., on the note of White pines, I am removing two 60' ers side by side in a few days, over the end of a house. ($1400 total), prices have many variables in tree care. Small city or large, removal difficulty, whats all is under or near the tree, bucket truck accessible, or has to be climbed and rigged, haul away accessiblilty, distance etc....some are easier than others. A few bids between reputable companies is wise.

Might be related to the singer Keisha?

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

$1k for a tree like that w/wood removal is the going rate down south, fewer fireplaces. Those pines are just lightning rods, anyway.

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

You and your family are going to get a visit from the Lord for this remark. :girlytantrum

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

:dogpat

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Ya, to that I said "Amen!"

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

A girly tantrum, MP? :heeheehee I was speaking to Berkley's remark, for the record. You can calm down now, you little sissy. :happydance

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Cool! I'm trying to get close to $1500, but they will have to be removed. We don't want them here. Still checking. Was too busy today to call anymore companies. Good luck with your trees!

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

I see the subject of felled trees is much more interesting than Bert (o-0-o-0) being banned. Sorry, MP! Well, not really. :heeheehee

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Oh, OH....

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Sorry, was just quoting Bert! In his stead, I am now the messenger of the Lord.....

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

I am totally in awe...... :heeheehee

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Oh...

Re: Bert (o-O-o-O) banned AGAIN???
 

Yeah, well, I get that a lot.:highfive
