Watching commercials from 1994 sounds like pure torture to me. Why would you sit through ads for laundry soap and pizza rolls just to get to the movie when you could just find a cleaner rip without all that junk? Those old ads don't add anything, they just break up the flow and make the tape longer for no reason. A real fan would want the movie itself, not a history lesson in what crap people used to buy. The deleted scenes are cool and all, but you're kidding yourself if you think the commercials are half the fun.

Oh wow, that sinkhole story is wild. I've always cut low too, mostly because the old timers said that's the right way, but now you've got me second guessing it. How deep was the rot when you dug that silver maple up, was it just the crown or did it travel down into the main roots too? And when you say at grade or just above, are you talking like an inch or two of stump showing before you grind? Curious because I wonder if the rot issue comes from cutting low or from something else like soil type or how wet that yard stays.
