even rugged denim, would stop a chainsaw that wanted at your junk.

But the pants might provide for easier recovery on the off chance that the twig and berries could be contained in a pant leg instead of being freely thrown clear..


Although I suppose you would be correct in that pants could prevent swinging junk from reaching out beyond the bonds of safety into the toothy danger zone. But that distinction would only be of importance to, umm, ahem, a certain, above average class of chainsawing men.

If you're getting hit in the junk, you're doing it wrong.

As long as you've done your homework on sitelines so nobody from off you property can see on, you should be good to go. Not sure how that applies to low-flying aircraft.

so much as the sound of a frickin'; chainsaw at night.

On edit: 3:15 in the afternoon isn't exactly night time. That would be OK.
