during my career as an employee of the state, I was assigned to work at one of the state prisons. It was an interesting/learning experience. I learned that virtually all drugs and other contraband were brought into the system by the guards, anyway I met a prisoner called "chainsaw." Over a period of a few months I got to know him a bit. He was isolated to a wheelchair because in a prior imprisonment he had been the recipient of a shiv that severed his spine. Upon his release from that term he was paroled to a half-way house where he had a room-mate. One early morning he came up with the idea of killing his room-mate with the only motivation being his thinking that he could get away with it. while his room-mate was sleeping he cut his throat and then when out to the garage where he located an electric chain-saw which he brought into the house and proceeded to dismember his room-mate into baggie sized parts and the proceeded to roll about his neighborhood with his baggies of parts dropping them willy-nilly under trees and shrubs and bushes and such. This took several hours as there were quite a few of the small baggies. time was running out so the final few parts were just dumped in the gutter and it was time to make his escape. He called a taxi and rode to the airport which, at that time, was close-in to the city of denver actually located within Aurora. by the time he arrived at the airport and purchased his ticked to canada (his home) the police had issued a warrant and were on the lookout for the guy in the wheel-chair. the airport police arrested him on the rampway into the plane he was taking to canada. He told me he just had not planned the timing well enough especially the navigating of the wheel-chair otherwise he would have made it clear and free back to his homeland. His favorite pass time was playing the game of chess. everyone just called him "chain-saw" including me.
@dyslexia,
did he have his own cell?
So glad you are writing this stuff - more, more.
@ossobuco,
Also, Chainsaw was a racehorse (to the tune of Stewball).
He wasted too much time disposing of the parts. Durn ijit.
Chainsaw was a legendary rodeo bull here in Aust.
With a career spanning more than 10 years, Chainsaw was one rough and tough animal - only successfully ridden by nine cowboys.
The Brahman bull won Australia's Bull of the Year a world record eight times from 1987 to 1994 and became a legend in rodeo and bull riding circuits around Australia.
With each successful buck, Chainsaw would take a swipe at the failed cowboy and charge to the middle of the pit before doing a victory lap in front of the excited crowd.
@dadpad,
And then, there was Turbulance. . . .

@dadpad,
There was never a horse that couldn't be rode, or a rider that couldn't be throwed.

but we're talking bull here.
Sorry dys Roger appears to have hijacked your thread. I'd have a word with him if I was you.
@dadpad,
I would not argue bull with the Dys.

My cousin (once + maybe thrice removed) married an Aussie and has spent the last 30 years in Marlboro QLD with a big 'ole Brahmans herd. Visited there '88 - heli-herding (tho I was on a hoss) and did the deed, snip, ate a "BBQ prarie oyster" <gags>
oh, <looks around>, not Mames thread, digression is contagious...
