| I live in the south, so I don't really ever split wood.
EDIT: The only times I ever have was when my friends had a lot of wood left over from a project they did, and then we used mauls (the modern kind with the axe blade) and what a friend of mine calls marine power.
Is it cold where you live?

| Today it's supposed to get close to 90F. But in winter it does get cold. I use mauls and wedges...relaxing, in a cathartic kind of way.
What kind of trees do you have there? Any hardwoods?

| ummm. not sure what actually counts as a hard wood, but we have lots of magnolias, oaks, pines, and assorted others.
What constitutes hardwood versus softwood?

| Hard woods are, well, hard. They are denser-solid like walnut, oak, ash and the like, as opposed to pine, poplar, hemlock, etc...

| Nope. And there was no reason to set my alarm, as there's nothing specific that I needed to get up for.
What did you have for breakfast? | |

| I try to, but half the time sort of get busy and forget, because I'm running around getting everyone ELSE fed and clothed and out the door. Then WHAM it's lunchtime and I'm ready to eat roadkill, but it's also time for the second feeding of the OTHERS so I get nothing but somebody's leftover PB&J crusts.
Why don't I weigh 110 pounds if I never remember to eat and I fence fence fence???

| Some may think only to marry
Others will tease and tarry
Mine is the very best parry
Cupid he rules us all...
Do you also like the theme music to Zeffirelli's "Romeo and Juliet"?

| Actually, yes, its pretty good. Overplayed though. But still pretty well written.
What's your favorite movie (non-musical) soundtrack?
