A nightly pause from the news to give the reader/viewer a bit of classic entertainment.
Excavator mulches trees in seconds
An evening pause: The speed and efficiency in which this excavator mulches a tree is almost nightmarish. Makes me think of innumerable science fiction disintegrator ray guns.
Hat tip Edward Thelen.
