Texas Chainsaw Massacre?

January 11, 2007

My father told me last week that he had just gotten his chainsaw tuned up.
My 67-year-old father.
My 67-year-old father who had a car wreck and three major brain surgeries in late 2005, who didn't get the final thumbs up/you're healed from his doctor until August 2006.

But there's a quarter mile of fence that needs cleaning up on the farm, my dad said; mesquite trees have taken over.
And my papa has decided he's the one to do it.
67-year-old man. Three brain surgeries. A quarter mile of fence. And one chainsaw, freshly tuned.
I'll keep you posted.
