Nope not protesters, some blend in by carrying BLM signs, or yelling at the police, but they are only there to destroy and steal. Pieces of ****.


Hey Teddy, I thought I understood those word games until PT came along. He seems to have his own style lol. Or maybe Im still not understanding.

It started out as using any random 7 letters to pass on to the next guy. Somewhere down the line, people started pulling a 7 letter word out of their sentence. It makes it harder and stops someone from picking XXXXXXX. Bowtie got me playing the game and I’m only a couple days in.

Just saw some protestors subdue a guy trying to rip apart the pavement to get rocks to throw at whatever. The peaceful protestors rushed him and handed him over to police. It’s almost time to use live ammunition on these rioters or at least something stronger than those rubber bullets or paint *****. They don’t give a crap about rights. They are pure and simple anarchists and illegal opportunists. I even think most of them are to stupid to know anything about politics but the media puts that spin out there for them.

(By them, I mean anyone rioting and looting. Every race is involved)
Hey Teddy D, aren't you glad those d-bags that said they were going to leave the country if a certain person got elected didn't have the integrity to follow up? There's a loooong list of blowhards that have yet to follow up on their "threats." Canada seemed to be a favorite landing spot for a lot of those "do as I say - not as I do" losers.

"Them" is an all encompassing term for the law-breaking vermin that exploit every opportunity to riot, loot, and generally cause anarchy every chance they get. Occupy Wall Street was the blueprint for this and they have gotten progressively bolder. This needs to be stopped immediately. Hopefully designating Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, which it is, will be a start. The law abiding citizens, including the peaceful protesters, deserve better than this..... Shut them down now.

Whitehouse shuts off lights, 😳

Another heck of a windy day here again. 60km/hr plus. What’s weird is two days in a row we’ve had a wind coming out of the south. I can almost smell the tear gas. 😂😂😂😂

I can’t remember what the heat shield looks like. If I remember right, it could be used on one arm and you could fend them off with a section of the exhaust. I hear those big riots in rural Tennessee can get crazy. Got to protect the mower at all cost.

Skags, have you ever used a Walker? My guy wanted to leave one with me to use while I was waiting on my new Toro. I think he was playing me because he knows my weakness. He figured if I used it I would become obsessed with it and have to have it. I refused to use it because I'm not paying $8-9k (or more) for a mower I'll use once per week. My new one has 3 blades and it cuts noticeably better than the old 42" one with the 2 blades. I didn't know if the Walkers lived up to the hype.

Walkers........well for once I'm being serious. I've used them
1) obviously a lot of walking
2) very maneuverable in tight spaces ( speed sensitive)
3) hell of a lot safer on slopes

Another option you put on walkers is a foot platform stand on thing.
Ride around standing up. Get in a tight spot coming up, clip the platform up, walk your bad spot, put platform back down, keep mowing

All day mowing, 8+ hours, I would go rider
