I have this small problem with misdirected anger. The object of my anger lately is lawns. I simply despise them. The idea that people spend time and money trying to make their front yards look like green shag carpeting is insane to me. Mind you, I spent a few too many years as a teenager working for landscape companies, so that makes me both a hypocrite, and predisposed to the distain of lawns everywhere. But, this does not quell my anger in any way, and when I see people wasting water (the spice is life) to water their ego…err lawn, it drives me batty, not to mention the tons of chemicals and fertilizers that wash downstream every year to create a greener and more surreal front yard. Is a dandelion such a crime? What is so hideous about clover? I say let it grow, weeds, crab grass, let it all grow, and if the drought comes in summer, let it die. Kentucky god damned blue grass my ass.
