But is he better than Pooka?

Odd thing is the kid who got tossed might have found Jones’s HR ball in the parking lot. He was the only one leaving the park early.

Skattebo?

Our trip to Rome is set for May 20-25 and then a Med cruise. Probably will have a new pope by then but Rome will still be a zoo.

Vatican tour for the 21st has not been cancelled … yet.

With the Jubilee also being celebrated, this could turn into a Mardi Gras thing.

So much for a quiet journey to Roma.

Well, here’s kind of an oddity.

One particular night in Vietnam I was in the middle of a full-fledged, running battle of 6 hours. I was wounded by grenade shrapnel and three of my Marine buddies were killed within yards of me and we killed 81 NVA soldiers.

It was in pitch dark, however, and none of us could account for seeing a single death outright. Bodies and parts everywhere around us but none witnessed.

Other days and nights were quite horrific.

Who in BR can I call? Have similar problem. Too old to tackle this myself. Am a Vietnam vet and can demolish anything. lol but not going to tackle this.

Contact insurance before anything else?

The only movie my wife and I ever walked out of … Annie Hall.

I read 2001: A Space Odyssey in Vietnam and went to watch it first chance I got when I went home. What a letdown.

Quiz Show, Casablanca, There Will Be Blood, The Departed, Oppenheimer, Tenet, Hateful Eight, Once Upon A Time In The West … just didn’t like them.

And most Netflix movies.

I thought this was going to be about former BR mayor Sharon Broome shoving talk show host Richard Condon.

Now, that would have been interesting.

I ordered the Greenworks 60v self-propelled with dual 5.0 aH batteries. Walmart sale $475.

Almost bought the 80v Ego from Lowes but is was nearly $300 more. Don’t need that much for mostly just trimming.

We’ll see.

Thanks for tips, fellas.

I have a Big Dog 42” ZTR for main yard mowing. But back yard is smallish and I like to use my Honda self-propelled for back yard and some trimming.

But my daughter’s mower crapped out and I’m giving my older Honda to her.

So I’m looking at another new Honda HRN216VKAD ($550) or the Ego Power+ 600 Series 56-volt battery type mower, also for $550.

The Ego intrigues me but you guys know a lot more about these than me. What say you?

Oh, yeah, I’m 75 and this will likely be my last backup/trim mower.
