As I wandered into work this morning, I was greeted by a forlorn Dr. Maurer. 'Have you seen what they're doing to the trees?' I hadn't, so he said, 'Well, go downstairs and see' as he marched off. And, this is what I saw.
Around the oaks, the only adornments of sinking Carpenter, lay piles of oaken branches.
And more piles. And more.
And, all I could think was, 'Why, UD, why?'
Were they actually chopping them down or just trimming them?
ReplyDeleteThey were trimming them, but it was entirely unnecessary; they weren't hurting the building; there were no power lines. It was just pure malice.

ReplyDeleteI always sympathized with the ents. I've often caught myself murmuring, "Nobody cares for the woods anymore," as I go about my way.
