Starting the lawn mower

Submitted by riverlover on Fri, 05/06/2016 - 1:00pm

That would not be me. I grew weary of that years ago, husband who could occasionally do that died, and I sent both off to recycle heaven.

But I heard that trial again today from my responsible homebuyer daughter who complained that their (couple) lawn was the Last Yard Mowed, again. She did not acquire that peer pressure in her natal home, I am off-road, out-of-view of neighbors. But the lawn mower, still pull-cord, without choke, will.not.start.

May Day--a return of Bernie's Momentum

Submitted by Alligator Ed on Fri, 05/06/2016 - 11:00am

Bernie's win in Indiana has added strength to my resolve to continue actively supporting him, not that I would have stopped anyway. Yet the thought that the Democratic establishment still continues to support the venal Clinton whose amoral, and often illegal policies, are a disgrace to the boy politic. Yes, Trump's public rhetoric is horrific--an out-and-out Fascist. But it is Hillary's not-so-hidden corporatism/militarism (i.e., Fascism) which is every bit as horrendous.
