Old Jake had cut firewood by hand with a swede saw for a living going on 50 years. He averaged about four cords a day. His son was home from college and watching him work remarked, You could probably cut 10 times as much if you bought yourself a chainsaw. Not interested in those new fangled things, Jake responded. His son returned to college and Jake began to think that maybe the young guy was right; his old body seemed to ache more and more at the end of the day. So he went into town and bought a brand new top-of-the-line chainsaw. The first couple days were not very productive--he only cut one cord each day. By the third day he had cut 3 cords but was dead tired. This is not working, he thought to himself, My son said I should be able to cut 10 cords a day. Im taking this stupid thing back. The next day he was in the hardware store complaining to the sales clerk about his lack of production. Blade seems a little dull, but not that bad. Lets start it up, the clerk muttered as he pulled the starting cord. What the hell is that noise? Jake hollered. :D
