Next step, I assume, they'll attach the branches and all the leaves.

Good choice in contributors!

It takes teamwork and effort to maintain an erection.

More have been invited and I'm waiting to hear back and more are being considered.

This looks like surveillance video I've shot.

I worked a case where a guy was delivering a load of drywall. He had one of those truck cranes. He was unloading the first pile and hit a high tension wire. Now, electricity has to exit your body somewhere. It exited through his crotch and blew off his entire package!

Eric the Fruit Bat said...

The blow job no man ever wants.

The birds are song sparrows, not that I've ever seen them.

Hazy Dave said...

Well, I certainly expected that to fall over. Disappoint.

Eric the Fruit Bat said...

With a couple more guys maybe they could have tossed it like a caber.

rhhardin said...

I don't know what was wrong with the old pole. It had been there since 1973 and would probably be there an equal time, and there's no unbalanced load on it.

They took down the old pole in chainsaw sized segments, having used it to erect the new pole.

Whether they excavated and filled the stump I can't say.

Mitchell, LOL

Lem the artificially intelligent said...

Now I get it... that was very subtle Mbat.

Althouse has a post up from the Orland Sentinel that if Trayvon Martin's family files a civil suit against Zimmerman, O'Mara says he will claim "Stand your Ground" immunity, and - it sounds like - possibly counter-sue.

This gets interesting. "Stand your Ground" has nothing to do with what actually happened and was not claimed in the criminal trial, but can O'Mara use that in the civil suit (if one is filed) because the suit presumes a different chain of events than what was presented in the criminal trial?
IOW, fight fiction with fiction, though in a real court room?

Not when I was in my teens....

Hagar said...

Wouldn't that be a little thick, even for lawyers?

When erecting a pole, nothing is more rewarding than hearing the words "oh shit!"

"I don't know what was wrong with the old pole."

It didn't have stimulus money. The hole will often make room for a new pole with money.

I want to Photoshop it with Egyptians and an obelisk. The guys calling to coordinate and getting things done, the bird calling to coordinate too and yet very serene and quiet. And a radio filling the gaps. A painting in soft meaningful sound, foreground, center, background.

Chennaul said...

I'm actually surprised there were more guys working and less guys standing around.

I've seen this everywhere five guys watching one schmoe dig the ditch.

It's universal--it's some kind of a law.

Hagar said...

It is not a law, but it is what happens when someone else pays the bill, but has no say in it.

Fiona, at 12:08 appears to approve of rh.
