    Great new avatar Mike. Big improvement over the last one. The last one was too scary to even look at. He should "Go away, and NEVER come back!"

    I barely learned to tolerate the purple dinosaur when the kids were little but that rainbow dino is a bridge too far.

    Beer. $75 should get you enough to get that tree cut up. (I know plenty of guys that would do it for a case. And that won't cost you $75.....)
