Ripped right from the headlines – imagining it the Dragnet way.

Most of the news website usually add one strange story and this one was no exception.  Man accidentally kills wife with chain saw.

How did this go down?

Police and ambulance arrive at house

Officer:  What happened here?

Husband looking down at the ground.  “She’s in the backyard.  It started two days ago at Lowes”

“She didn’t like the look of the backyard, you know how wives get.  “We need to pick up all the dog poop, someone needs to pick up all the toys out there rusting, what about trimming the bushes and so on and so on.  I work hard all day and when I get home on the weekend I want to relax, she starts as soon as I walk through the door with a list of things to do.  I can’t even sit and have a beer and she’s pulling me to Lowes.

We buy yard mulch, flowers, Weed Wacker and chainsaw.

So she follows me around the back yard, telling me that I didn’t prune that bush right, I need to add more mulch, when am I going to plant the flowers.  She just follows me yapping about this or that so I turn on the chainsaw to drown her out.

I’m cutting the trees like she says and I see that she’s still trying to tell me something but all I see is her mouth, I can’t hear over the roar of the chainsaw.  I turn it off and she’s halfway through telling me that I’m not cutting the tree down right so I turn it back on and finish the job.
