  1. Although I am already familiar with this information, does the UK have its own version of the same events:confused1: easy-lift guy
  2. I do not think the matter is that cut and dry. It is not good when a country is forced by executive fiat to comply or else:thumbdown: I suspect the tipping point for this country has been reached and will take many years of the have nots to actually work in order to survive. That will not be seen in my life time since it has taken nearly 3 generations to evolve this country and economy into its present state of existence:sneaky2:. I don't have a good feeling about this next election. Unless there is a complete landslide victory for RandR all bets are off. Even than still many years of hard work going forward, but going forward is the key:thumbup1: easy-lift guy
  3. Our national economy will continue on its way down depending on our election on November the 6th. If the present lease holder one way or another secures another 4 years the country from an economic standpoint and far beyond will be finished. It really is that serious folks!. For myself this has been the best year yet for the ELH. Still have many plans for the future, tragic so much is hinged on a megalomaniac willing to destroy a country for himself and his band of walking dead supporters. easy-lift guy
  4. Tom2020, I can see that you have had to make sacrifices with your help. I can only hope if I ever found myself in a similar situation I would find the will to carry on in spite of my hiring decisions. easy-lift guy
  5. treequip, knowledge is power! easy-lift guy
  6. Rich, did someone start a thread just recently about what climbers wear?, I was just distracted like you were:blushing: easy-lift guy
  7. Not all parts of my country are like where certain folks want to go on a school trip:sneaky2: There are many places to see and things to experience here in America, bring your family and if you get a chance to visit the Sunshine state look me up for some southern hospitality easy-lift guy
  8. No, but someday I hope to be able to:thumbup1:. My point is that there are so many beautiful wonderful places that I just recently wanted to see while visiting your fine land. That being said, the world is a very different place than it was when I was in school taking field trips. With the expense of living in California and the State so broke city and county governments offering IOU's as a form of payment for good and services, I suspect that if this school trip becomes a reality, it could well prove to be a living nightmare:thumbdown: O well, live and learn. easy-lift guy
  9. With so many things to do and see in the UK, it pains me to read this story where a school from Scotland would be willing to travel to the land of make believe for what? Really pathetic IMO. easy-lift guy
  10. As a ground dwelling inventing, entrepreneur type person. I have found that taking time off weather it be alone or with family has been critical to my success. Time in its simplest form is the single greatest commodity that has the shortest shelf life. Time management is very challenging on a day to day basis. The key IMHO, Is to have a balance or plan to make time off to do other things than work. Life is how one lives it, I choose a balanced approach since it works well for me. easy-lift guy
  11. Terrible loss, may God rest his soul, protect his family. easy-lift guy
  12. If what you are claiming is true, I make no exceptions or justifications for using substances to improve ones performance in sport or work, weather the outcome of using such substances is real or perceived will not change my opinion. easy-lift guy
  13. We have sycamore trees over here that would easily meet that length and weight. Nasty dirty trees IMHO easy-lift guy
  14. Breast Cancer Awareness, I guess:confused1: easy-lift guy
  15. Ouch, that hurt all the way over here. Pack in ice. Hope your feeling better. easy-lift guy
  16. The problem lies with being resposible. Many folks here in the states feel no obligation or responsibilty for themselfs or their employers. Pot or alcohol or all Tobacco products can become gateway drugs for harder substance abuse. In the end sooner or later the user has to pay the price, and society and the employer could be left holding the bill. Zero tolerance with my firm. I have no time to waste on folks that choose to waste their own time and lives. After all why do you think it is called DOPE!, easy-lift guy
  17. With all of the students in the Arborcultural industry looking for work, I bet you can find a replacement ASAP. I would also institute a drug testing policy starting with the replacement hirer,unless you already have one in place?. I am also with Andy on this one as well, Drugs and or alcohol, Your FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. easy-lift guy
  18. Dean, The Situation with Katrina and New Orleans is a simple example of jack Asses in control of power. The mayor of New Orleans was in a motel penthouse watching everything go south with days advance notice. Mayor Nagen, AKA School bus nagen allowed all of the folks that were left in the cityto stay right where they were. With enough advance notice he could of had most if not all of the citizens evacuated out of the city by local school buses ready and waiting to move. Instead he choose to allow the busses to become flooded along with the portion of the city where so many people were told to stay put. The Govenor of the State who had authority to contact the Federal Government to help with the evacuation of the folks in New orleans also decided not to contact the feds untill after the fact. The feds are not allowed to come into a State unless given permission by the governor of such state that requires it. Way to little and far to late:thumbdown: easy-lift guy
  19. That remark really takes the cake, Dean:lol: easy-lift guy
  20. Not if I have anything to do with it. Afterall we still speak Americanenglish or is it Englishamerican? easy-lift guy
  21. Paul, I don't think Treeseer is wanting the flame thrower on deck. He is wanting a comparison to gain knowledge, as am I. easy-lift guy
  22. I can not comment on a risk report generated from the UK, however I suspect that the link posted seems pretty SOP for the Arborculturel industry here stateside. I am also familiar with this part of the country and knowing the population and traffic patterns. I can think of several reasons why it has taken so long to generate, none of which have anything to do with this industry. easy-lift guy
  23. Do yourself a big favor and don't guess what your going to need and buy the wrong thing and damage what your trying to raise in the first place. Only buy what you need. Anything more or less is really a Hugh waste of time. easy-lift guy
  24. I would expect no better reading material for the reading room! easy-lift guy
  25. I forgot one more thing, this is important. If your not ambidextrous now you will be soon enough. Really, all kidding aside keep up with your physical therapy and get well, perhaps a journal of sorts to share with the other members may also help pass the time away?. easy-lift guy
