"one punch man? Yea, I know him"

I go to Webster Square too, but usually look up what rebates the manufacturer is offering first.

I'm doing this next week. Running the mower with and without the bag attachment. Gotta bag some for the chickens to play in and dig through

As long as they’re not using them late at night. It is what it is. I don’t enjoy the sound of them either but people do indeed have the right to use leaf blowers. Especially if you have a huge yard. Wet rotting leaves are a welcome mat for termites and other bugs. Along with a ton of other problems. I always bag them and take them to the yard waste places. People that are putting them into the streets right now is annoying. They haven’t gotten signs up about it yet.

As for the noise of it, that’s city life. Cities are loud. There are a million other noises that are problematic, but the sound of a leaf blower for an hour isn’t going to hurt. The only way to avoid it is to live far away from other neighbors or have a large plot of land where there aren’t any trees around to drop leaves.

That’s wild lol

Giving

I use an electric leaf blower after doing a mulch-mow to help spread it all out more so that my yard doesn't suffer too much... Because you can't really rake them once they've been mulched. I don't do this to protect my lawn (fuck grass, I mostly have creeping clover, dwarf fescue, and moss) but rather to avoid issues with pests and as a natural and free nutrient to the yard. If I have extra / excess leaves then I will gather them all up and either use them in my firepit or add it to my compost pile.

I also then use my blower for several neighbors who are elderly. They can't rake their lawn, they don't have money to pay someone else to do, and my stamina is on par with someone twice my age because of bad life choices - so I'm not able to spend the time and energy raking everybody's lawn.

I also make sure to do it in the middle of the day to minimize anyone being disturbed by it. It doesn't take a terribly long time because I live in a very wooded area and wait until most of the leaves have come down (because fuck doing it 2-3x a week).

How about you go talk with your neighbors if it bothers you so much?

Go over them with the lawnmower several times and mulch them into the grass. It's good for the soil.

I switched to an electric leaf blower. So quiet compared to those gas monstrosities

Truly a Worcester classic

The ones giving or receiving the punches

Darn things should be banned, with exceptions for folks with disabilities or aged 70+. Rakes work fine.

I like ten ten dental but not sure if anyones had negative experiences

Bryan Dental in Shrewsbury - everyone there is incredibly kind and compassionate

This is necessary. Wet leaves are slippery (don’t ask me how I know.) They invite vermin, not to mention ticks. They can get moldy. They block storm drains. As far as leaf-blowers go, the lithium-ion battery ones aren’t awful. I still use a rake, but my raking days are numbered, so I mow them (cheaty mulch.) I hope I can stay leaf-blower independent, but if I need one, I’ll buy one. I don’t want wet slimy moldy leaves around my house.

Are you asking about clearing leaves at all or just using a blower to do the work?

I also go to Shustak. I love Sally, she’s a fabulous hygienist who puts you at ease. Mary Ellen is also awesome. Dr. Shannon has a very calm demeanor and would probably be good for someone with anxiety.

I think he was trying to tackle him ;-) Lol

Can't find it anywhere, but here's a bonus fight outside of Compass

I have dental anxiety but Dr. Levenson on Linden has done great for me.

Got a link to that? Lol

Owner is amazing and has been in business for almost 40 years for a reason. He gives a shit.

Perfect fit tailoring

A classic, and legendary

When I was a smoker I occasionally went to the Owl Shop to indulge in a pack of Balkan Sobranie cigarettes. For a regular smoker they were too expensive to smoke every day and so I rationed them. For the rare smoker, these cigarettes are like an expensive dessert or fine liquor. You should never mindlessly smoke one just to feed your nicotine jones. This is to be enjoyed after a special meal or with really good coffee. They are an exceptionally smooth smoke with a nice flavor. As an ex smoker I don't preach nor support smoking and am only suggesting this to those who do smoke. The Owl Shop is the very last vestige of the old downtown that once bustled like Herald Square in NYC where 34th Street, Sixth Avenue, and Broadway converge. It's nothing like that now. So I'm a little sad about this but time constitutes change. I wish the owners good luck .
