Oh god, this is going to be two long years. I wish I could be here, but I'm in the middle of exhuming my room. SO MUCH SHIT. I was probably two steps away to being a low-grade hoarder. But I digress.
Like I said earlier, two LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG years to go.
Maybe in two years we can clean out all our junk from our rooms, and maybe in two years the voting public will clear out some of their junk from the Capitol.
Now they are saying that the CBO only said that because it was a Democrat-held Congress that asked for the report.
And they are even violating their own "cut/pay as you go" rule, because this actually SAVES money they are exempting it from their own rules that they said would govern how they legislate.
Like, it isn't a bad rule per se, but it has no power when you can chose not to follow it whenever it turns out to be not in your favour.
ZOMG TREE SURGERYfenris_lorsraiJanuary 5 2011, 18:37:37 UTC
I'm at work, so can't watch.
Instead I am watching the tree surgeon take down a monsterous tree next to the driveway. He has a remote control woodchipper. It's like the most terrifying robot ever. IT IS AWESOME.
I swear half the neighborhood is standing around watching this. GIANT MACHINES. MAN IN TREE. STUFF FALLING WITH CRAHES. It's like an action movie.
Pics later.
So far he's been really skilled and got everything to fall in about a 10X10 area.

They've got one dumpt truck, a truck with a robot arm, a bucket truck, and the robot wood chipper here for this one tree. Mind, the tree is about 200 foot tall and the midsize limbs are as big around as a person. IT'S FUCKIGN HUUUUUUUUUUGE.
There's also four guys, the tree surgeon, the bucket operator, and two cops here since they're dropping them partially in the road to avoid the power lines.

I'm guessing that minimum collateral damage from falling trees requires this Mechagodzilla to be deployed.
