When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to
me that I should get it fixed. But, somehow I always had something
else to take care of first, the shed, the boat, making beer...
Always something more important to me.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.
When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass,
busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched >silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone
only a minute, and when I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush.
I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep
the driveway."
The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
