Have You Ever Stopped Mowing Long Enough And Realize |
|
your lawn mower blade is dull as a hoe?
You forgot to put on that thingee to keep from breathing in dust and pollen?
You're about to run out of gas?
OK, I just had to do at least one of these today! :silly:

4. A Dremel is like a tiny little SawzAll! |

I find myself disassembling things simply because I can.
"Hmmm. I always wondered how these little motors worked. Damn, it's a sealed unit...but not for long!"

They sell them with a blunt edge because it's cheaper and limits liability, but they, like mower blades, should be sharp.
Same applies for shovels. Sharpen the blade and see how great it works.

5. Mowing is quite therapeutic |

I get lost it.
I could go on but I have to go get fitted for a prosthetic.
