    New neighbors next door (cool folks). They had their belongings delivered in a UHaul pod, and this was the retrieval of the pods. Driver decided to bring the forklift up our driveway and drive down the sidewalk (after failing to jump the curb, surprise). Caught our tree branch and ripped it off the tree, but got stuck in the process. Nobody got hurt at least.

    This is exactly the kind of thing that scares me out of starting new side hustles. I think I'm going to offer gutter cleaning in the fall and in the spring when I'm slow though, starting this year.

    That makes a lot of sense. You’re already doing the climbing, and nobody want to clean their own gutters. Sounds smart to me. Good luck.

    Thanks. I'll be allowing board members the honor of paying me full price for services, once I figure out what those prices are.

    In the mean time....LOVE THIS

    Also, the way the second verse is worked in kills me every time. I honestly think that Weird Al is probably one of the most underrated artists of our time.

    Weird Al dressed as Rivers Cuomo from the Buddy Holly video lip syncing Weezer covering Africa by Toto while parodying the video for Undone(the sweater song). So meta.

    Just sayin'.





    Relax CN - I kid!
    Seems kinda fitting that it has a big Donkey sign on it.
