I don't know Coby if this is your question, but when they quote you a price for firewood you should ask what kind of wood it is. What specie. "Kind", to them.
Poplar is a softwood, one of the cottonwoods, if we're talking the same as out here. Crappy wood for burning. Most all, of the places saying they're selling you hardwood are probably really selling you hardwood. Most places don't even bother to "have" softwoods. An exception out here is Douglas fir. Not near as good. Nope. But there's so much of it cut, there's some to burn. It costs a lot less, and I wouldn't use it. But if it was free, off my land, I would.
A fairly funny, bordering on knee slapping, image in this context here, is some curly haired chickadee around forty in a Range Rover driving off with 1/5th of a cord of box elder.
Of course, this wouldn't be humorous to you, because you would be the butt, instead of whatever the opposite of the butt is. Butter and buttee.
And no matter what, putting cordwood in your Rover is going to wreck something in there. Impossible not to. You could move it in and out with dental tools and still it's a disaster. Big mess, it makes. No no.
Waiting til November to have it delivered is no big deal. Just keep pestering to stay in Active Line.
I have a HARD time believing power's going out, but that means it'll happen. But I just can't see what's going to happen to all the generating capacity, and it HAS to go somewhere.
It would actually be very difficult, to shut down a power grid. Not saying stuff doesn't fuk up in "unexpected" (duh) ways, but....
I also have a feeling that any Y2K power outages that might occur? Are going to be fixed toot sweet and at the cost of some castrations and hangings.
The absolutely incredible thing to me, tho, is people thinking we're going to be out of power in this country for more than 36 hours under any circumstance other than full scale war. Not gonna happen.
There. I've doomed us. |
