Mending Fences

Neighbour #1: "You know, as a rule I do not like to cut or tear down living things.  I am really a natural person.. I like to leave nature an as close to perfect as I can.  You know, I don't like to mess with perfection."
Neighbour #2: "Well, me neither, but I do like to keep things shaped up a bit.  Like this tree here; it just seems like what my other Neighbour X  said was a "junk" tree.   I am thinking about taking it down."
Neighbour #1: "Yeah.  I guess that one should go.  I mean, it drops all these sticky, gross things on our side of the fence all the time.  Gets kind of annoying."
