Angry The helicopters are driving me nuts.

Yes,those stupid maple tree seed pods are every where on my property. What really sucks is I don't have any maple trees. I finally had the place detailed to perfection,and now this. Sometimes I wonder why I care so much about how my place looks.

We have one those junk Chinese elm trees next to the driveway. They're crappy trees, very brittle, little branches always falling everywhere. I don't know how this thing survived but it has to be 40' tall, they usually split or break before they get that big. It as little round seed pods, about as big around as a pencil. They're everywhere right now. It rained yesterday so they stick to your shoes, try but they won't wipe off before coming in the house. I hate that tree, if it wasn't so big I'd take a chainsaw to it. It's too big though, if I dropped it, it would no doubt bust the driveway and maybe take out the corner of the house.

The helicopters haven't started yet. We have a huge silver maple at the end of the shed, when it starts the yard will be full of those.

The worst part of the helicopters and the Chinese elm seeds is the land all over the driveway. So they crunch from cars or your feet. Then they get wet when it rains and basically make a mess. If they landed in the grass I wouldn't care. The lawn mower will chew them up and spit them out.

Stop being so inthuisiestic, Gary.

Are the helicopters black? Sound like mosquitoes? They are jamming my signal referencing device. I need foil--- Help !!!!
I hate those little things. The pilots are cocky little ***holes too. They buzz me when I'm talking to someone and they know I can't swat them down, because I'd look stupid.
I think I'll go buy a Pacifica. That should remove all doubt.
OWWWWWWW..... j/k Gary !!!!
