A local social group I help organize is throwing a "help out your friends with yardwork" event. We called it Chainsaw Garden Party because someone needed to cut up a tree; it made for a good event name. I drew a teacup and a chainsaw in silhouette and made a slightly retro-feeing layout that would work well on a white t-shirt or an inkjet printer.

Hooray! Bye dead tree. This guy is a zippy climber and one-handed chainsaw-wielder. Our neighbors have an outdoor wood furnace and can burn this wood, even though we can't. It's nice that the old dead tree will be used.

Denji is a young man with blond, scruffy hair. He has sharp yellowish-brown eyes with bags underneath and sharp teeth to match. He is a bit scrawny with protruding ribs due to malnutrition.
At the beginning of the series, Denji was missing an eye and several other non-essential organs, including a testicle. After Denji forms a contract with Pochita, a chainsaw cord forms in the middle of his chest and he regains his lost organs.
On April 25, Gregory Despres arrived at the U.S.-Canadian border crossing at Calais, Maine, carrying a homemade sword, a hatchet, a knife, brass knuckles and a chain saw stained with what appeared to be blood. U.S. customs agents confiscated the weapons and fingerprinted Despres. Then they let him into the United States.
The following day, a gruesome scene was discovered in Despres' hometown of Minto, New Brunswick: The decapitated body of a 74-year-old country musician named Frederick Fulton was found on Fulton's kitchen floor. His head was in a pillowcase under a kitchen table. His common-law wife was discovered stabbed to death in a bedroom.
Despres, 22, immediately became a suspect because of a history of violence between him and his neighbors, and he was arrested April 27 after police in Massachusetts saw him wandering down a highway in a sweat shirt with red and brown stains. He is now in jail in Massachusetts on murder charges, awaiting an extradition hearing next month.
At a time when the United States is tightening its borders, how could a man toting what appeared to be a bloody chain saw be allowed into the country?
Bill Anthony, a spokesman for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said the Canada-born Despres could not be detained because he is a naturalized U.S. citizen and was not wanted on any criminal charges on the day in question.
Anthony said Despres was questioned for two hours before he was released. During that time, he said, customs agents employed "every conceivable method" to check for warrants or see if Despres had broken any laws in trying to re-enter the country.
"Nobody asked us to detain him," Anthony said. "Being bizarre is not a reason to keep somebody out of this country or lock them up. ... We are governed by laws and regulations, and he did not violate any regulations."
Anthony conceded it "sounds stupid" that a man wielding what appeared to be a bloody chain saw could not be detained. But he added: "Our people don't have a crime lab up there. They can't look at a chain saw and decide if it's blood or rust or red paint."
Sgt. Gary Cameron of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police would not comment on whether it was, in fact, blood on the chain saw.
On the same day Despres crossed the border, he was due in a Canadian court to be sentenced on charges he assaulted and threatened to kill Fulton's son-in-law, Frederick Mowat, last August.
Mowat told police Despres had been bothering his father-in-law for the past month. When Mowat confronted him, Despres allegedly pulled a knife, pointed it at Mowat's chest and said he was "going to get you all."
Police believe the dispute between the neighbors boiled over in the early-morning hours of April 24, when Despres allegedly broke into Fulton's home and stabbed to death the musician and 70-year-old Veronica Decarie.
Fulton's daughter found her father's body two days later. His car was later found in a gravel pit on a highway leading to the U.S. border. Despres hitchhiked to the border crossing.
After the bodies were found on the afternoon of April 26, police set up roadblocks and sent out a bulletin that identified Despres as a "person of interest" in the slayings, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
The bulletin caught the eye of a Quincy police dispatcher because it gave the suspect's Massachusetts driver's license number, missing a character. The dispatcher plugged in numbers and letters until she found a last known address for Despres in Mattapoisett. She alerted police in that town, and an officer quickly spotted Despres.
In state court the next day, Despres told a judge that he is affiliated with NASA and was on his way to a Marine Corps base in Kansas at the time of his arrest.
After the case was transferred to federal court, Despres' attorney, Michael Andrews, questioned whether his client is mentally competent.
Fulton's friends in Minto, a village of 2,700 people, told the New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal that he was a popular musician, a guitarist known as the "Chet Atkins of Minto" and a 2001 inductee in the Minto Country Music Wall of Fame.
During containment operations on the NW part of the Delta Fire, lookouts discovered a developing hot spot outside the line near Damnation Pass off Dog Creek Road. The threat to containment was present and response was swift and decisive, with task force of engines and hand crew being immediately ordered to the scene.
Units engaged were; USFS Firefighters from USFS Truckee NF Engine 371, Inyo NF Engines 12 and 322, Tahoe NF Engine 371, Modoc Hotshots and Kern County’s “Golden Empire” Hand Crew 10 (USFS DIV Sup Heather Grove commanding).
Firefighters quickly scaled the hillside where the fire was developing, digging containment line and dragging hoses. In short order the area was encircled and water was being applied. With the threat contained, operations elsewhere on the division proceeded as planned.

An old tree stump turned into an angel in the cemetery at Sacred Heart of Mary Catholic Church. The sculptor is B. King.
A mech based off of Denji in his Chainsaw man form, which of course I edited into the anime title screen. Let it be known I have neither read nor seen Chainsaw man.
This was my Halloween costume in Second Life, Juliet Starling from the video game Lollipop Chainsaw. She's a hot blonde cheerleader who kills zombies lol.
I got the idea after I saw a girl dressed like her at Comic Con in London (she did look hawt!)
