I bought a new lawn mower, because I hit a Yew stump hidden in the grass I put down the year before. This isn't really a deep or important blog item, but I can't rember when I bought the last lawn mower so I thought I'd catalog this. The older mower was bought either 7 to 10 years ago, but I can't be certain.
I don't bag my grass. I mulch it down to nothing and it goes back into the lawn. I once dreaded doing the mowing, becasue I alergic to grass. However, I 've learned if I don't bag the grass and wear the right clothing I rarely have a problem.

Be careful what you tell a Dragon.

The High Priestess went shopping for panties. That's the 5 panties for $25 deal that Victoria's Secret pushes every three months or so. (Aside: I was just at the mall today and VS is selling 7 panties for $25. So I guess things are bad in the undergarment retail business.) The HP buys this stuff online, so she doesn't have to be in the store with the perky, gaunt, coeds VS always has working there. SO VS gets our address and an email. The Wife has gotten an email from Victoria's Secret everyday since then. Plus, we get catalog, LOTS of catalog! So far, that's one a week.

VS charges three dollars for their standard catalog and five dollars for their holiday issues. How do they make any money? I figure if we see four more catalogs before the High Priestess needs new panties, the panties will be free.

Notice how all the images tell you to BUY NOW! So what are you waiting for? Get that credit card out and start saving the world economy!
