Ill get an electric lawnmower when I trade in my truck for a prius and my cromo for an electric scooter.

Its Husky time!

So I went to Sears today to check out the Huskys and the Snappers......I then left the lingerie section and proceeded to the garden department.

Both brands were ok......not compelling enough to drop the cabbage.  I then looked on CL once again.  Found a John Deere with a cast aluminum deck, rustproof!  $100!

I sent the seller an email that contained 3 simple questions.  He sent me back a rude email basically reiterating the verbiage in his ad and then asked what time I wanted to pick it up. 

I'm torn.  Its a good deal but I might end up punching him.

Cast Aluminum!

The husqvarna mower will be a brand labeled mower made by someone else.  In fact, if you look close, it may be exactly the same as one of the craftsman or snapper models with different colors and stickers.

Some of the things more important than the engine brand in my opinion but are often overlooked:

- robustness of the wheels and height adjustment system
- quality and ease of the bag mount design and discharge attachments
- deck material and mulching capability

$100 for a decent used JD mower sounds pretty good too.

when i lived in oregon, i tried to get a coworker who had lots of goats to graze them on my property (about 4 acres of useless to me tall grass.)

he was willing, but wanted to charge me for the use of the goats ?
i figured i was doing him a favor by offering to feed his goats for a few weeks....ended up renting a tractor with a brush hog.

Maybe he was used to hanging out with the Moose Humper.

I think more people do than don't.


Some are just more discrete about it than others

This was clever enough to quote. Well done, brother.
