Today I was mowing the yard (in my head the Regal "Real Man's Man" theme was playing as always the case when I'm doing manly things), when I noticed the mower was excessively smoking. I thought, eh, that happens sometimes, no big deal. Pushed it a bit more and looked again and the damn thing was on fire! Never in my life had I experienced some crap like that. And to top it all off, now my cell phone is broken. Blah!!

I had a riding mower catch fire while I was using it. Good times.

It was weird at the time, because I was fairly young, but it was a small fire, so I didn't want to cause a panic or seem chicken. So I lightly went 'Fire'. over in the general direction of my house until my dad came out.

Sounds about like what I did, I wasn't sure what kind of fire it was exactly (one involving oil or whatnot) so I wasn't sure if I should douse it with water or not, so I just went inside and cheerfully announced "MOWER'S ON FIRE! ^_^"

Your mower be burning, lol!" And I am now laughing uncontrollably.

That'd be scary as hell considering he's been dead for a decade. >_> Also, to add to the craplist, I went to Gamestop (because my local mom and pop shop I know doesn't have it, they told me yesterday) for a used copy of Oblivion, the online thing said they had it. Well, they didn't! Boooo! I did get Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars for 21 bucks though, I guess it wasn't all bad. more whining later? perhaps.

A neighbor once ran over my foot with his mower, it cut my foot up pretty bad, but it broke his mower and I punched him in the eye so it was all good.

How can we sleep while our mowers are burning? How can we dance when our earth is turning?
