Saw this sticking up in 2ft of tall grass while mowing a ditch today. Really nice find....I don't think it would have taken anything more than one hit from a toro 20hp 62" z-master though...

I found a half eaten Quarter Pounder with Cheese while I was mowing the other day. Not as nifty as what you found I must admit.

Too late. I kicked in over into the neighbors yard and their 2 year old ate it.

Peechland sells her quarter-pounder to buy DM a leather sheath for his knife.

When Christmas comes they get into a huge fight, but end up having sex on a riding lawmower. Thus recapturing the true spirit of Christmas.

I've found lingerie in tall grass, dead animals, cars (Out in redneckville), people sleeping, big holes (it was tough getting out, let me tell ya), 24 pk of small condoms (Unopened. UNTIL I ran them over, whoops. Can't stop 500 lbs of mower that quickly!) Cases of beer, etc. Ran over someones Razr phone not to long ago. They lost it in the grass and I found it. Bags of weed, bags of cash....

I was under the assumption they would both be riding the lawnmower... the lawnmower riding them would be very painful.

Glad you didn't run over it. major damage to either you or the Mower.

the knife would've been toast, but chances are, it could've ended up under your skin.

You people never cease to amuse me! 13 hour long workday and I come home to find this!

Methinks a ground patrol before mowing would net you a tidy profit...


how tall do you let your grass get to have people sleeping in there.

remembers OP. :headbang:

It probably would have flown through someone's side window and into their head...dangerous.

People usually call us out when the grass is 5-6 inches tall (in the country, IF they call us. Countryfolk usually do it themselves-either cows or tractors) With city folk it's every week or other week.

Of course, some places (Like the GE engine test facility in Dallas) we go to every six months. Grass is 5ft+.

Did you think at all that it could be a crime weapon. Prehaps the best way to have treated your find was call the police and let them handle it?

You might be a Redneck when you mow your lawn and find 3 cars in the grass...

If there was blood on it, I probably would. I didn't find any, so probably not.

It would have been massive overkill to call the police out for a knife....most likely it was dropped by an industrial worker-there were industrial parks on both sides of the street.

Either way,I am up a good quality knife....

Yep.

'Tis true. I mowed my own yard and found a 1984 300SD benz I had forgotten about.

I'll post pics of my own yard as proof, with myself as the measuring stick showing how easy it is to lose a car in high grass/weeds/sunflowers.

10 hours, 650$.






And I have to hire a contractor from Dallas who knows cornrows and how to braid. I don't know how! :p

Probably not, there are lots of knives that people carry around and never do anything more criminal with than open packs of food.

Er... returning to the original topic...what happens if severe damage has been done to your groin due the repeated kicking and you need to go to a hospital to get it sorted, but no one's payed enough taxes for the hospitals to remain open? you're screwed, well, actually, you may never screw again

You might be a redneck living near water if you mow your grass and find a bass boat.
