I keep the transmitter in the house (it’s concealed). In the unlikely event the mower were to be stolen, it simply wouldn’t work.

Thanks very much. Most helpful. Have another “Like” - I would say it’s the least I can do, but I guess it’s the most, here, too. :wink:

De nada. I was curious about the source too, so no trouble at all.

I wish to be clear I’m giving this a like because I know you’re drawing attention to the sheer amount of chauvinism in Popeye, and not because it’s in any way funny.

Why Gandhi, though? What had he done to offend US sensibilities?

He’s an “Indian” too.

I thought it was because with one punch Popeye turned him into a non-violent Indian.

That just never occurred to me. Naive of me, I suppose to think there were depths to which they couldn’t sink.
Mind you, TinTin was pretty awful too. But then a check on the record of Belgium in the Congo suggests that was only to be expected.

Looks good, but the wheel covers make it totally impractical. The grass would pack in there very quickly, especially if there had been a little rain.

Utility be thy king.

I always give a pass to the verb ‘Macgyver’ for the same reason.
