Blog Guy, I recently graduated from college with a major in creative writing and a minor in film studies. What sort of job should I be looking for?
Can you juggle?
What? You mean like tennis balls?
No, more like chainsaws. Ones that are actually running. If you check out the photo below, I think there may be an opening when Stumpy here “retires.”
We already know that his assistant, Lefty, isn’t going to move up in the organization.
Maybe you didn’t understand me. I said creative writing and film studies. Shouldn’t I command something better than chainsaw-juggling?
Of course, my mistake. Do you think you could bend a horseshoe with your teeth?
Yes, thanks! That’s more like it!

The amazing thing to me is that he’s NOT actually stumpy! Can I assume he’s the best chainsaw juggler in the world? The competition must be thin on this one. Then again, a competition would give new meaning to the term ‘claiming a handicap’…
- Posted by BandageI don’t know what all the buzz is about. There are only 2 types of chainsaw jugglers: Competent & Former
Thanks for sharing this little slice of life.
- Posted by LogrusCan that chainsaw guy still count to ten on only two hands?
- Posted by CraigI understand how someone gets to be a chainsaw juggler. Start with rubber balls, move through bowling pins, and so on to running chainsaws.
But how does one discover that he’s able to bend iron with his teeth?
