If trees could talk...

Been here much more than a while
If trees could talk, what do you suppose they'd be saying while we climbed?

"Hey, asshole! Try a cambium saver, will ya'? I'm trying to preserve my youthful complexion, here!"

"Lose some weight, fat boy! I ain't made of friggin' titanium, ya' know!"

"Yeah, sure, whack another limb off, Dr. Frankenstein! I wasn't using that one, anyway. If I had better manuel dexterity, I'd shove that saw right up..."

"Hey, can you see Sarah Palin's house from up here?"

"Gaffs, really? How would you like it if your wife wore those things while you're doin' the nasty, eh?"

"Can I get a bandaid for that?"

"Since you're up here... can you scratch my bark over there, next to that bump? Ohhhh... yeah! That's the spot! Hell, yes. Yeah, baby, that feels gooooood! Say, what are you doing this Saturday, big boy?"

"Hey, hey, hey... don't you cut there! Does that look like a freakin' node to you, dummy? What, you didn't think I'd notice? I'm no dumbass maple tree, ya' know. I've been around the block a time or two... er... well, actually I've never been anywhere but right here."

"Psssssstttt. Hey, you! Got a beer?"
 
"Hey, Gary! I got another one of those things crawling on me!"

"Awwww, what a cute little...hey, what is that!?...I don't like the looks of it...just put it down, man, put it...no...no....ngrglgrglgrgl......................................................................."
 
I could imagine them stealing one from the customer

"Hey, while you're up here could you [insert time-consuming task that wasn't on the bid]"
Related. The ever popular, "Do you think you could fit my wife in that chipper?" (It's always the husbands saying this for some reason :rolleyes: )
 
Conversation between Baby tree and Moma tree. "
Baby "Moma, will I be as big and beautiful as you?"

Our greatest priviledge and responsibility is young tree training.
If you don't know this please find out.
It really is the main reason to be an arborist. To ensure a tree is as big and beautiful as fast as possible for as long as possible.
 
Before you hurt me
I am your warmth in the cold nights of winter
friendliest shade found
in the August sun
fruits fresh and appetizing

beam of your house and the table where you eat
bed of rest, and the keel of your boat
handle of the hoe that sits by the door of your home

the bread of kindness and the beauty of flower
When you pass, take a good look at me, before you hurt me
