Top 10 Reasons to Hate Lawn Mowing (by Matt Oyen)

10. It cuts into my fishing time
9. Its not just mowing any more. Picking up toys, cleaning up dog poop, removing fallen pine cones etc. all ads up to 30 minutes of preparation. That's 30 minutes less fishing.
8. Somehow mowing over immature dandelions makes them grow faster and taller.
7. When I'm all finished mowing I get to step back and think "well that wont last long".
6. There is a delicate balance in the world of those who love to mow and those who hate to mow. I am on the opposite side of the balance from my dad. An it needs to stay that way.
5. It makes me smell like gas (petroleum and methane).
4. Now I have a pile of grass clippings to take to the dump. 30 more minutes out of fishing time.
3. All the grass is the perfect length now, except for the strips around all obstacles. time to bring out the weed eater. 10 less minutes to fish. (however this is slightly of set by the fact that its fun to chase the dog with the weed eater).
2. I'm all tired out now I don't really feel like fishing any more. Thanks a lot stupid grass.
1. I'm pretty sure the lawn is one God's punishments given in the garden of Eden. You know, weeds shall infest ground..., By the sweat of your brow..., and all that stuff. I have come to believe that grass is one of those weeds. The old snake himself has tricked us into believing it is beautiful to behold. Kind of like the forbidden fruit. I cant really prove this from the Bible but I am willing to twist scripture! The Bible also talks a lot about fishing in the New Testament. Again willing to twist.
