When our lawn mower broke down, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.
But somehow I always had something else to take care of first...the truck, the car, metal detecting, fishing...always something more important.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.
When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors.
I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a few minutes.
When I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush.
"When you finish cutting the grass," I said, "you might as well sweep the sidewalk."
After whomping on me some, she said the LEAST I could do was get her a new "riding" mower.
I can now walk but I will probably always have a limp.
