Things we don't need any more discussion on.

[Tony Snyder]

Anyone care to have a poll on things we don't need to discuss anymore for a while (people just go to the search for for the worn out topics)

I can suggest a few:

Oil types and mixes

Chain filing

Any more mention of 026/260s (worn out topic)

How to fell a tree

Stihl vs Husky war

Slurs on Canadian drinkers

Hot rodding dinky little saws.

Hot rodding antique saws; let them RIP

Nude men doing whatever

Posts from the $2.00 word guys

Hi Tony (Marks) How's it going? I'm thinking bout sending that Poulan XXV up to Dozer Dan for some power porting. Whaddya think? Put a 24" Oregon Pro on 'er and start cutting dutchmans. Should I take the rakers down a little, I think the turbine oil I'm using on the bar oughta keep it from slowing down in the big wood. Heck with Stihl or Husky, I'll put this baby up against anyone's MS260, but not them old 026's. Them's way too velociferous. Some guy from Ontario recommended Running it on Seagram's and Av-gas, but then I'd have to upgrade to a XXV-AV.
Sorry, just havin fun,
George

That pretty well covers it George. Tony S, I agree with you, but is there anything left to talk about?

Well, I disagree. This is a forum. A medium of open discussion. It IS a CHAINSAW forum, but a forum, nonetheless.

 

[chainsawworld]

tony,
exemplary recommendation. but for now i need to mix some sta-mix at 40:1 and grab some save-a-chain, file my chain at 30 degrees over-all for my 026(or should i take my husky 357xp) for some open face-bore cutting. i hope i do run into lambert in the woods this afternoon. he begins to get hard to understand. than he takes his pants off and fires-up his piped 017. maybe i'll run my david/bradly aganist him this time. some of what he says sounds spurious but that's just how he is. marty

I AM CANADIAN!

And what is wrong with slamming Canadian drinkers? I think we find it kind of amusing............we all know 'merican beer is horse p*ss.

 

[Newfie]

Maybe we need a new forum. We'll call it "things Tony is done talkin' bout" And notice I left all high priced words out of the title for ya. JPS ought to be busy for at least a month just moving threads into the new forum.


More seriously, rehash is a necessary evil on a forum like this.New members will ask the same old questions when they first come here, but without new blood we all get sick of each others opinions and the forum will wither. I was thinking about this same kind of thing the other day when I was reading through one of my woodworking mags. They can "seem" repetitious if you have been a subscriber for 5 or 10 years. As our base of knowledge expands there will be less new interesting stuff in each issue. But there are still those "newbies" that must be considered or subscription falls and the magazine goes away.

Just my $2.01

Sorry, forgot the chainsaw related picture. I think Tony is trying to coerse me into posting nude again, however, I am on a nudist colony forum now, most nudist colonies have bushes, so I am posting nude pictures there so I can get the timber, while blending in with the landscape.

I have been accused of being a Canadian.

 

[sawracr]

Tony, you don't have to read every post !

 

[Chainsaw_Maniac]

Lol. I know I might have started one or two topics that sound "discussed to death" by people that have been here a long time. :angel:

Hey Jumper!
What about Canadian Whiskey!?
Down here it is called Canadian @#$%mist. We have 3 fine
distilleries in Anderson county alone, one makes Wild Turkey.
Makers mark is 2 counties away, two fine whiskey producers.

Why do Canadians load up on Beer and cigarettes when they come down to the states?

Ky. is a state dependant on the vices of the world. Whiskey,
tobacco, Horse racing, pot, College Basketball, Amway..

 

[Jumper]

Because the beer is cheap, and there are some good US one, so I take some of my previous comments back. As for US smokes, I know of few Canucks that would buy them as the tobacco is a lot different a mix. Duty free Cdn smokes, yes, but Marlboros, Camels or anything else, forget it, they are an acquired taste, much like bourbon, JD, Old Turkey or whatever. Good US whiskey is OK in my book, and becoming more popular up here, especially JD and especially in Quebec,but I will drink Irish or Scotch whiskey first, not the swill either. I never was fond of Canadian whiskey, or "Rye" as it is called here, though they sure export a pile of it to the USA, most of it crap. The better stuff, eight years old and up is reserved for the domestic market, Canadian Club(or CC, eight years), Wisers(10 years) and Crown Royal probably being the most popular.

 

[Fish]

Ok, so what about pot and horses?

 

[Jumper]

The rest.........

Pot is soon to be legal in small qtys here, so I am sure there will impact on the above ground economy. As for horses, well there is The Queen's Plate, not to mention the greatest horse ever, EP Taylor's Northern Dancer(1964). You forgot Shamway, people continue to get suckered into that too up here.

 

[WOLF_RIVER_MIKE]

Old Turkey?

 

[Jumper]

Old Turkey

Figure of speech.

 

[Chainsaw_Maniac]

Pot is soon to be legal in small qtys here

And for medicinal purposes. People can legally posses it to if their doctor sais they need it for pain relief (for arthritis, cancer, or whatever).
