I seem to remember a previous day's post and that some guy

with a sexy voice had no effect on you whatsoever because there was a $2K riding mower involved, and a monster mowing grass that didn't need it... But maybe I was hallucinating. Dreaming... maybe.  I do love your stories, Joe, and still wonder from time to time about Georgia's pedometer.

Tell me it was a down payment, Joe - or perhaps a 'per month' price?

One thing this entry shows is to look hard for the best deal. So many places try to hide them.

No doubt about it – you know how to tell a story and make us smile.  So the $899 one DID exist but I’ll wait and see what The Monster convinced you to buy….

Man! I love Corbin's contraption! I might even start mowing the lawn myself, something usually handled by my LSW. But then she'd have to find another form of exercise...Another thing that occurred to me: Instead of buying a lawn tractor, have you ever considered getting a goat?

LMAO... Monster?? LMAO ! Awesome !!! Take that Monster !!

My 2yr old grandson is obsessed with lawn mowers and snow blowers. He asks about my lawn mower every time I talk to him...so funny.
