Ex girlfriends that think it's ok to climb into bed while you are sleeping............................

Have you got their number? lol

I am very hard to irritate, but this morning I was doing a 12 mile walk and about 7 miles into it, an oxygen thief on a Harley decided it would be the thing to do to spit at me as he went past.  Shooting him off his motorcycle would not have been legally justified, but removing a POS like that from the gene pool should be allowed at least annually.   

Even annually might be a little hard to get permission for in the birth state of HD.

I agree. Shooting him would be much too harsh. Next time carry a 3' pipe with you and toss it between his spokes as he rides by. Then he'll be spitting dust for a few minutes.

Been there done that.  Then I listened to your Dad.  Paid over FIVE make the beast with two backsing Grand for a brand new tough-as-buggery Greenfields.... $5000 to mow grass  .  Paying for it made me feel ill  .

And not today's five grand either.  It was 5K twenty years ago...  But here's the thing...

After 2 decades of harsh abuse and minimal maintenance... its still works better than i have any right to expect  .

What a bargain

I'm going to landscape the new house with crushed stone...

everything else will get hayed or mowed with a brush cutter behind the tractor.

Eff this lawn shit.

Lawn maintenance irritates me.

I hired a guy to come over and do my lawns a couple of times a month for $100 bucks. I was going to buy a riding mower but not now.

If anyone is interested I have squirrels that will dig up your lawn and plants as well as steal your vegetables, eliminating the need for gardening equipment

I am seriously considering sheep for the lawn.  They are lawn mowers that replicate themselves, fertilize your lawn, manufacture the fiber for your clothes and you can eat them.  Looking at Rambouletts - good in cold climates and produce Merino wool.

you can do the same thing with Alpaca's or perhaps even mini cows! ( yes, they have them!!!)

Oh, do tell? Just leave out names.

It was a shop in Sacramento, they charged me to setup the suspension and failed horribly.  Absolutely horrible.......  I don't use names
