Pumps' Perplexities

Growing up, everybody was told to LOVE a tree.....Everybody
read Joyce Kilmer's poem - Trees........The tree was a
beautiful thing......It was something to climb and have fun it.....
It was a place for the birds to nest.......It's leaves provided
sustenance and nutrition to the earth.......

BULL......People today, involved in Global Warming, want your
money to plant them.......Once they die, people want your
money to cut them down and take them away.......I suspect,
in my olde age, that a tree is perhaps the biggest of all
weeds.......

Fine, they do convert CO2 into O and help us all live, but
a dead tree in the wrong place, at the wrong time, does not
work well with me......A tree that falls over on a house does
not work well with me either.......A tree that falls over on my
neighbor's house really causes a problem........

SO, as a young person you are happy to be a Boy Scout and
plant a tree to save the world......Then some 60 years later,
as a senior citizen, you have to PAY to have it removed......

Why plant it in the first place?..........Pumps
