Don't you think you might have mentioned that limitation in your
original request... next you're gonna add that he's a double amputee
and blind. Didja every suppose that maybe you should be trimming
those giant hedges for him.


I already offered to do it. I need to persuade getting a quality
pair of manual trimmers. No, he's not blind nor crippled, just a
little set-in-his-ways about what he wants. It's amazing how cancer
treatment greatly weakens the muscles, though. The good news is that
he has finished all treatments and so far no cancer has been detected.
