I bought a Fiskars Momentum Reel Lawn Mower. I decided to when my gas mower wouldn't start. Yeah. I could've tried to fix it, but I've been thinking of getting a reel mower for a.... real long time now.
The only problem. It can not get any tall blades of grass, and when I had that poison ivy about a week ago, and it being much hotter... I didn't have too many chances to take care of my lawn.
If/When I get my gas mower running again - I plan to use that mainly to get into corners and go around most of the 'obstacles' that are so prevalent in my yard.

Is this gonna be some sort of whacked out med drama plus murder mystery, or what?
I just watched the first episode, and found it rather cliche, but the art style is pretty cool IMO.

I hate spiders. Kill them. They don't have minds. Nobody misses them when they die. They number in the trillionsXtrillions so you could kill ten every second for the rest of your life and not endanger their numbers. Just kill them.
I see it as them or us. That may or may not be the case, but that's how I see it.

(if you feel like it...) Go back a few pages and look at the times the replies were posted. Some were on the same second, while others where anywhere from a second to 2 or 3. And that kept going for a good while. There might've been 4 or 5 red-line/page-break indicators go by. ...What Idkbutlike2 said.
But I quit at some point and mowed my lawn with my awesome mower.

Heh, not quite. Definitely keep watching though; it only gets better.
Well, I just finished watching the last episode that ark posted, and I am unimpressed with the huge plot whole that this series pulled with the "X years later" routine. How can a murder case drag on for nine years straight, and what's up with that cyborg cop guy? And the theme of "business vs. humanitarian empathy" better not drag on through this series. But anyway, I'm a bit ambivalent over continuing to watch Monster. I'm not a big anime fan to begin with, and this series only caught a bit of my interest.

it's not really any of those things. the show isn't about a murder case; it's about people. basically the first few episodes are just an intro to the series, used to give some background to the characters. the real meat of it starts after the "x years later" thing.
also there are plenty of unsolved murder cases that have gone on for years, so i don't think that's very unrealistic. at any rate, it's not like cop dramas where there are a bunch of people working on the case. in monster it's just the one detective who's obsessed with finding his man and can't let it go.
