Me 1, Grass 0

I went to Home Depot and got a bright shiny orange trimmer, a Black & Decker "super power grass murdering weed destroyer turbo" or something. Now the grass/weed combination that inhabited the area around the mail boxes that isn't technically my property but which my neighbors (not my immediate neighbors, random others on my street, who don't like to come in person, but who pick the most cranky to be their delegate) complain to me about and expect me to look after, is measured in inches rather than feet. They didn't actually complain about it this time, but I was waiting for them to, and the lack of complaints confused me. It does look much neater now.


Don't cut it,

spray it with Roundup!
It turns such a nice shade of brown...
So much more attention-getting that way, and they will all know you did your part to keep the mailboxes nice and neat.

Murphy may still make your neighbours complain for you having cut their rightfull grass/weed combination :-)
