Who invented leaf blowers and WHY????????????????!!!!!!!!!!
What is so wrong with simply sweeping leaves off the sidewalk and/or raking leaves? Does anyone care about the noise pollution?!

Come work with me for a day I will hand you a broom and say go for it. You will be begging for a leaf blower within ten minutes.

2. One of the most useless pieces of equipment ever.
If you really want to do it the easy way. I saw a guy mowing leaves with his riding lawn mower with a bag attachment. Seemed to work ok. Or you could probably mow them with a mulching mower. Not sure why leaves gotta be bagged.
I will tell my boss on Monday that I need a riding mower to replace the leaf blower. :mental:

3. How About Commercial Landscapers?
Their jobs are hard enough.
Yeah but when they wake up primitives at the crack of noon with all that noise it really sucks.

...and they use the shit out of leaf blowers, morons.

You know... the OP of that thread has a point. We should put the leaves into a pile with highly flammable materials and other environmentally hazardous things and burn them all. He wouldn't have to worry about the noise.

But the screams of the leaves as they burn will haunt the DUmmie till he/she/it dies. :fuelfire: :stoner: :-)

Tell ya what, asswipes--come up to NH and try to fantail rake a couple of acres worth of leaves.

I used to have a neighbor that was a real pain in the ass (probably was a leftist but I was young and didn't care about such things). Constant complainer about whatever we were doing. One day I am using a steel flex rake on concrete. He comes over and starts bitching about the noise the steel is making on concrete. That was not smart on his part. I then needed to rake almost everyday, sometimes there were not any leaves, go figure. Finally, the guy brought over a case of beer and the raking quit except when necessary. If this moonbat came and pestered me about my blower, I would just turn it on and go watch TV for an hour. It would be a triple bagger, piss of a moonbat, belch two stroke exhaust, and bring a smile to my mug.

I'll bet if this DUmmy lived back when the car replaced the horse it would be complaining about the first automobile.

DUmmies gotta piss and moan about something. It's in their genes!
Maybe they need a poll over there to find out how many DUmmies also use leaf blowers........

Especially if one of the leaves comes back as Oaky the Ghost Leaf, and starts telling them all about the plight of the other screaming, burning leaves.

Gotta clean the monitor! H5!
I've got a couple of leaf-burning stories. One, a long, long time ago, I was working with a friend in a neighbor's backyard, burning leaves in a pit in the backyard. Well, I looked out to the street in front of the house, and a gold-and-blue Chrysler sedan marked 'New York State Police' drove by . . . So, I ran over to the gas can and picked it up . . . and threw it into the fire pit. No, it didn't blow up, and the Trooper just happened to live across the street anyways.
The second one--a few years later, I was making a big pile out in the backyard, and my father asked me to pour some gasoline on it, so he could light it in a bit. The can was over half-full . . . and the pile got every drop. The thing is, my dad didn't light it right away. A minute or so later, he did--and it was quite the flash. I got a bit of a dirty look from my dad, and a laugh out of one of the neighbors, for that one.

If they are anything like the moonbat neighbors I used to have they would then bitch about the horses.
Of course this is the same woman who threatened to sue me after my mare kicked the crap out of her dog. She didn't like my reply about the fact that if I ever caught her dog chasing my horses again she would be picking up a dog carcass.

I have a leaf blower, as do both of my neighbors.
We have better things to do than sweeping leaves and grass from our sidewalks.

:bawl: :bawl: I had two neighbors show up at my door to politely ask me to send my kids to school-----they could walk there---- by another route. Seems both neighbors had husbands that worked the night shift and could not sleep for the noise the kids made in their 30 second walk past their home in the morning. Incredible, just how much noise were these children making ??? Did they yell and shout all the way to school or just when they passed these two homes.
Were my children EVIL and know somehow that these strangers needed to sleep, and venting anger at them ????
When the 3, one 6 years old ,one 8 years old and the third 10 years old went off to school I would take my coffee out to drink on my front porch and watch until they rounder the corner. I watched as they walked past these homes and as they were only 3-4 homes up the street I never heard any kind of noise from them.
So strange that these woman wanted my kids to not walk past their homes. Totally at a loss I did try to figure out if there was anyway to alter their route. Nope, to do so would involve these kids to cross a dangerous intersection and have them walk another 10 minutes to school.
I began to walk the kids to school myself making sure we crept past the homes, I took my dog along for a walk and next thing I hear is the neighbors complaining that my dogs barking was now a problem. My dog was a Saint Bernard and only barked when there was trouble a foot at home. [someone trying to break in or strangers in the yard. meter readers etc ]
I freaking gave up, what ever the Hell the problem these woman had was not my children's problem and I had it with these nut cases. One can only do so much to accommodate neighbors and strangers. I went back to allowing the kids to walk on their own 5 minutes to school, continued to walk my dog past their homes, and when the woman sent the police to my home for another complaint the Cops told me that there are Nuts out there, and I had their number if these woman bothered me again.
What their problem was I will never know but darn if it did not effect me and the kids for a few crazy months.
