Old tractor has bit the dust ... got almost a acre to mow. Last week 
pushed a lawn mower around (took me two days because I just couldn't do 
it all in one sitting) and I /still/ have muscles hurting that I didn't 
even know I had! Well been looking at this one:

I've owned the brand before (roto tiller) and it was a champ ... just 
curious if anyone else cares to comment. Maybe about this brand or 
perhaps you like something better.

You have to get it. It has a handy cup holder. ;-)

Then again, you probably enjoy sitting while mowing, so this might be an 
option:

LOL ... not likely. Best recommendation I've had: A goat, a 6 pack and a 
lawn chair ;-)

No no, get rid of all them new-fangled motorized contraptions--use an old manual
lawnmover instead. "Real men use manual lawnmowers."  Ha!

Today somebody helpfully commented that I could get Nicole to graze the 
lawn for me.

When she finds out, she's probably going to kill him. ;-)
