thankfully, in the US, I only have to worry about getting shot or run over by a truck

Exactly why 80% of my riding is inside on the trainer.
Worst worry is wasting 60 minutes on a bad DVR show while I sweat it out.

I'm guessing this was a grudge or jealousy attack. It has a very Tonya Harding feel to it, dialed up to 11.

I wanna know what does a "blunt" chain saw look like?

Like a bicycle drive train....or is it disc brake rotors? ¯\_(ツ)_/

with reference to your "11" (above), I actually looked for an appropriate/intelligent quote from the movie, alas, I found none :-(

I will say however, my new chainsaw is akin to an amp going to 11. So, I guess I got that going for me, which is nice. (not unlike having total consciousness on my deathbed)

if you don't do triathlons anymore, why did you stray out of the lavender room?

Honestly, I meant to post it there, but I didn't see the story posted here and I figured someone may know him or care to read about it.

I'll slither back to my hole now.

Correction: This article originally stated that a chainsaw was used in the attack. It has since come to light that the weapon was a handsaw.

It was puzzling me - any chainsaw I've ever used, blunt or not, would have your leg off in a jiffy.
Hacking away with a handsaw is pretty grim but at least poor Mhlengi got to keep his leg.

They were not speaking isiZulu. They were speaking something else. Mhlengi thinks they may have been Nigerian.
Shange said the men then started cutting his leg.
“The chainsaw was not sharp and they couldn’t get it started. So they manually started cutting. Two of them held him down while the other started on his leg. They kept cutting until they got to the bone and they could not cut more.
“They wanted to start on the other leg but they were interrupted.”

This is another story out of South Africa......
