I replaced a chain on an electric chainsaw, and once I get some oil, it should be ready for action. I'm going to trim 4 trees when they go dormant, and cut a fifth tree entirely down. The one to go is a sycamore maple?, and it probably seeded 20 years ago from a larger tree that's growing next door. I can start with the limbs any time, and borrow a gas saw for the trunk, and finally chop and dig out the stump and roots. With the tree gone, the garden will get more sunlight, with no more soapberry bugs in the spring and summer, and there will be space to add on to the shed.

Snowpeas, broccoli and maybe the onions popping out of the ground, but no cauliflower, so I just started my last cauliflower seeds indoors, to transplant later, when hopefully it will be warmer. The freezing cold in November is an anomaly, and cauliflower is hard to grow.

It's hard to understand how one Army private was able to download gigabytes of secret government files. Any Fortune 500 company has better data security than the US Military and State Department. The Postal Service is going bankrupt. The TSA is transforming transportion security into another botched nightmare, and I shudder to imagine the impact of Obamacare on society.

Note to the peanut gallery: here's a link to a discussion of the revised CBO analysis of Obamacare. http://www.emorywheel.com/detail.php?n=29066

I realize you don't have time, with all your self-involved internet wankery, to keep up on news, and I also realize that your nasty anonymous comments are really just another way to vent a diseased spleen. I maintain that you're the selfish one, by sitting on your lazy ass all day, unwilling to support yourself or your children. For you, Obama's free health care is just the ticket, and damn the consequences to anyone else.
