Janis: What's wrong with the leaf blower?
Arlo: I'll tell you what's wrong with the leaf blower!
Arlo: It's a noisy, smelly, wasteful, soulless symbol of what our society has come to...
Arlo: That won't crank!
I’ve got an extra spare Lemi Shine® (dishwasher stain reducer powder) in our under-the counter cabinet. Walmart is the only place in Sheboygan County that carries the stuff, and I don’t want to run up there all the time. “Extra spare” means a pending replacement plus a backup.
My daughter’s famiily has a 200-foot driveway with no plans to remove the thickening carpet of leaves. Guess the snowplay will take care of them some day. (Or maybe the snowplow.)

That’s why I have an electric leaf blower. Except for the annoying long cord, it works perfectly. No cranking, no smelly exhaust.

Not if you have more than one spare.

A leaf blower is the slowest way to collect leaves there is. I have neighbors who spend hours moving a pile of leaves 20 feet.

When women swept the driveway, they used manual brooms, now that men have taken over the task, it has to be with some noisy, smelly …..

My wife loves her new battery-powered leaf blower (still pretty noisy)!
