No intelligent human being would use a pickaxe to chop down a tree.
If you have sharp rigid edges.

Been a tough week for the garden.
Left the backyard light on the other night, thus enabling the a!*#$!& bunnies to butcher a corn stalk.
And then a surprise storm last night really did a number, possibly taking out another corn stalk and a tomato plant. :-\
We'll see, I might've been able to help them enough that they'll make it.

He's afraid of the dark.
Besides, we live in town, I'm pretty sure they don't like dogs free ranging all night.
Also, as long as we leave the lights off, that's what the owls do, our backyard is a highway of death after dark, with only their screams that hardly ever wake me anymore, an occasional tuft of fur or bloody claw marks in the ground to remind us of what happens.

Ferrets were bred to take out tunneling animals, as well. It's the original reason they were domesticated. Not sure if they're legal up in cheeseland, but if they are, they make great pets, and you can let him squirrel down a hole to go take out any pests you have in the yard. Just...you know...hang around, cause they're inclined to run away and explore afterwards.

Yeah, the Thrawn trilogy is pretty involved. Though, of course, that's a lot of what makes it good, in my opinion. Paring it down into a screenplay is going to take a lot of work, but I'm getting the ball rolling.
I'm no speed-reader, but I can usually finish 100 - 120 pages in an hour: "Size matters not" regarding how big a book is. (Though Martin could have certainly cut down on the size of his stories . . . .)
I don't think I ever read all of the X-wing stories, but a lot of them were great. Wound up not really digging Allston's writing style by the time he was working on the Legacy of the Force and Fate of the Jedi enneaologies, though. Can't put my finger on it, really, but it just seemed that there were chunks of his final draft(s) that grated on me . . . .
Anyhow -- All hail Grand Admiral Thrawn!!

as much as I like most of his work, I find Stackpoles characterizations to be irritating in the extreme. Maybe he is to me as Allston is to you.

I have to stop by here to get away from the politics on my Facebook wall. Why do I know so many stupid people? Why? I know some really ignorant m*%+~**~~%s.
Snopes takes two f~@~ing minutes. Two minutes! Lazy ass s$+~ pushing m%+~%+~~#%+&s.
That would not have been expressive enough without the swearing.

I find your lack of respect . . . disturbing.
I can understand that you would be upset that Seth MacFarlane did a better version of Star Wars.
But it's better if you just accept the truth.

I . . . I can only chuckle . . .laugh . . . guffaw at that sentiment, friend. It may be that nothing is sacred anymore, for most folks, but parody rarely supersedes its inspirational source(s), and MacFarlane simply didn't achieve that.
But, you are, of course, allowed your opinion.
. . . for the moment.
Turns back to workbench, places Kaiburr crystals in both lightsaber-quadchucks.
@greentea --
We have already established that you're Vader to my Palpatine, man. It's on the forums, so it must be true!!

Seth's is the only version of SW that I own or have watched more than once.
