...Thanks to everyone who reads this for your time.
Strange how someone's else's thoughts evoke ideas in others, as you have done to me, SjJ.
You reminded me of a local arborist who went out of his way both in time and detail to describe what is happening to a huge pine tree in our front yard, and the need to send out a town's crew to fix things. So, in turn will phone his boss and share with him was a great job his employee is doing.
And as per you other comment of the online shopping and how it meets out personal needs, I also shared yesterday with the SO the many downfalls of being able to buy and the shipping method. It is expedient, but not without negative ramifications.

Your local arborist is the exception, not the rule. I know an arborist. He reminds me that, based on the overwhelming evidence, so many so-called, self-proclaimed “professionals” in the field—at the city, state, and private levels—know virtually nothing about how to evaluate, tend to, and care for trees. They buy mowers, leaf blowers, edgers, chainsaws, and a bucket truck—and away they go.
The biggest and most torturous crimes against trees are destructive pruning of limbs and, especially, decapitating/topping; as well as over-mulching at their roots, which suffocates them. Sad.

You're absolutely right, unfortunately. I was trained on pruning. If only that manager had stuck around longer, I could have learned a lot from him.
That happens a lot. A thought leads to another thought, serves as a reminder....
Sounds like you have a good arborist. Hold on to him.
As some here have stated, it's not always easy to go to the store. Those who have to drive far, have disabilities or just don't feel like going out in bad weather, etc have good reasons for ordering. That said, as long as I am able to go to a store, that will always be my first choice. Most of the best purchase decisions have been made this way.
My taste just keeps expanding.
Sort of a short version of "Variations 1". There is no such thing as too mellow, too slow, too heavy or too fast for me.
The fact that most people can't distinguish between "etymology" and "entomology" bugs me in ways I can't put into words.
Never heard of the first one. My sons never got into the 2nd one, so I never watched it. It's probably about my ex-wife and me anyway, so no need to watch ourselves.

The first one was a side story on the Rocky & Bullwinkle cartoon, and too bad ya missed out on the second one. Even though the cartooning itself on the Fairly Odd Parents may have seemed kinda goofy, the material itself was pure comedic gold. Kinda like certain aspects of the earlier SpongeBob episodes, stuff that'd go right over the kiddo's heads but would make the adults howl with laughter....

I'm putting that on a t-shirt!
Man, I can see the difference right away!
One word has 7 letters in it, whereas the second has10.

I'm not so sure it goes over their heads, excites for sure. The imagery is powerful, masterfully done.
