Mowing Made Simple

Mowing Made Simple

Spring is upon us, and my little square of grass will soon need to be cut. Having been removed from the lawn care tradition for quite some time now, I've decided to do some brushing up. Now, because I have such a short attention span, I really only got to the first tip about proper lawn care before I decided it was high-time I wrote some of my own tips:

[ 1 ] Let the grass just grow, man.
[ 2 ] Wait for the kindly grass-feeding fauna to sample the buffet that is my lawn.

Done. I am the lawn-care equivalent of Zeus.

My brilliant idea of getting sheep with adjusable height shoes was shot down by the fact that they can bend their knees.

Mike Perve

Yeah, sounds like a plan, right. Wrong. Your neighbors will turn you in for having weeds over 6 feet high. Then the city or township will come out and fine your ass. I know - it happened to me.
Sixty freakin' bucks, man.

Well...that should encourage the township to revoke their shepherding ban. Simple.

You people are making me seriously consider mowing my lawn...I don't like that...

You mean mow your ocean, right Admiral?

i can't believe you're talking about lawns. how 20th century. get with the post-organic age, man. replace your needy patch of plant life with sheets of stainless steel, piles of heaped-up polyester, or if you must have a lawnesque area, create an ironic fiber optic plot. Or maybe just a picture of a lawn.

Heavens.
I first encountered your web real estate around abouts version #3, and this is my first visit back.

I likes it.
I especially likes your illustration/sketching. Keep up the great work. Sometime I will get around to asking you how you manage to get such good looking scans...

Bowing to your prowess,
Reuben Jones.
