6.5 feet tall and 8 inches wide and they want us to believe it is 8000 years old? Right, cut the sucker in half and ocunt the rings. Probably closer to eight eyars old.

Pine makes some good wood for furniture and veneer. Maybe someone should chop it down. What a harvest!!

Chop this tree down. It’s blocking my solar panels and the great view of the river. n

Impossible. I have it on good authority that the world is only 5,000 years old.

There’s no way. A six foot spruce? In northern Sweden? That would put it close to the polar circle.
