You are absolutely the most ignorant person to post !

It’s pretty rare for me to be singled out as the highest achiever, so thanks.

Another point which somebody has raised in the past. When people blow grass into the road it can be a hazard for motorcyclists, as it’s like hitting a patch of ice.

I put a mulching kit on my mower to keep the grass under the deck, mostly for that reason.

My guess would be already unconscious or dead too. I couldn’t imagine being the unfortunate operator that was probably just sipping his morning coffee and rolling through some familiar tall brown weeds that he mows every year, and seeing that pop out from under the mower. That would shake a feller up.

"hold my beer"....

Probably caused him to spill his coffee too! Darn shame!

If her sister was so distraught and upset, why in the hell was the woman homeless. How come the sister didn’t give her a place to stay. yeah right, family demands answers, the family was not there for the homeless woman. The family is wanting a paycheck and that’s all.

Yup, well said

Once stupid, always stupid. You just can't unteach that.

IME the safest "brush hog" is a flail mower.

Wow a lot of eye opening mowing stories. I feel lucky that in all the years of mowing my property, I have never hit anything substantial with a mower.
Working the night shift as an RN, Driving home , my wife hit and killed a homeless man that was drunk walking in the roadway. It was dark, street lamps weren't working, he was wearing all black clothing. He had just been released from the ER at the hospital where she worked. Local PD had brought him in to the hospital because he was having trouble breathing, turns out he was just really drunk , so they just released him out the door in that condition. Six months later the same thing happened to another homeless person, hit by one of my wife's coworkers on the same street. PD wont keep homeless drunks in custody, shelters won't take them if they are drunk or on drugs, the hospital ER doesn't have room for them.
I have a friend that I grew up with that ended up homeless. He had mental health issues and was a drug addict. He chose to be homeless not because his family wouldn't take care of him but because, he wanted to use drugs, be left alone and hang out with people that did the same. If I saw him in town. I would visit with him and buy him a meal. I gave up trying to help him years ago, he didn't respond well to people telling him what to do. It made me sad to see him like that, but I tried to provide him some comfort.
