Bazza Posted September 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Perhaps they should be made into movies. Gotta be better than most of the carp Hollywood's cranking out right now. You fishing for a comment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I have lacerations on my hands and arms from removing blackberry vines from my father-in-law's back yard yesterday, on the occasion of his 85th birthday. (The Himalayan blackberry is an invasive pest plant here.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L. Marcus Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Anything like a machete? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 No, but a shovel was useful at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Marcus Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Proper garden maintenance demands a machete! That's my story and I'm sticking with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Well, my father-in-law can no longer effectively wield a machete, so he doesn't have one, and we were up at his place and had not brought our tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 If you're not in a position to use napalm, a machete would be an acceptable substitute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Well, it's hard to walk with a cane and use a machete at the same time. Especially if you have to reach underneath real trees. White kryponite would be ideal, and probably the only thing that has a chance of really working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I remember having to help someone with kudzu when I lived in West Virginia. They were almost convinced that it would just be easier to burn the whole property to the ground and rebuild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I've never lived in an area with kudzu. Here, you can rent goats (assuming your property is adequately fenced) that will eat blackberry brambles, and everything else growing. Like a fire but without the fire, sort of.

Cancer Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 No, I'm not, except the "everything growing". They won't attack treetrunks, at least until all the leaves are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Probably owned by someone with a tie-dyed T-shirt on 24-7. No, camo is the new tie-dye. Add a bush hat and you're closer to the stereotype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
