Gardening - Leaf blowers, weed wackers

since i'm here i could as well just mention two things that piss me off . what i call inconsiderate gardening.

i find it amazing how in our efforts to beautify our homes with lush levels gardens fit for 12pm tee off, we practice or otherwise encourage the nastiest habits of blowing the clippings onto the road and into our drainage systems. the general response so far has been, it's only grass. but that only grass is havoc on drains, and generally unsightly if you are ever able to look off your premises.

and then the weed wackers. i always like to site pieces from the bible as it tends to grab people's attention. remember david n goliath? the weed wacker is the david of the gardening world, and i'll let you choose your goliath (examples could be cars, windows and hmmmmmm your eyes also). these little wonder machines are SOOOOO dangerous. imagine cruising down the highway at 80kmh listening to that new daggering style track and doing a small jig in your seat when suddenly *BANG* u have one eye and a truck load of pain. far fetched? lets wait n see.
