Three people wearing full body suits and weed-whacker backpacks were trimming the grass on the median. This grass barely even exists for 3/4 of the year; it's nearly impossible for it to grow. People are constantly walking all over it and there are permanent footpaths to the T stop to mark that. I wondered, was there even enough length for them to be cutting? It seems so ironic, we (humans) put grass there, told it to grow, then beat the s*** out of it constantly, and when it gets enough moxie to grow longer than 2nd day beard stubble - we cut it. I have to wonder what the point is of growing it the first place..Beantown Veganshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14767853951135139429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7139461648549034691.post-89971392255664025692007-05-15T10:36:00.000-05:002007-05-15T10:36:00.000-05:00Isn't is just amazing?
