For leaves, we have the venerable "Vark Fart." *An RF-111

a purpose for this other than burning off excess fuel when they have
to dump it. *However, I looks cool as hell when a Vark does a
highspeed pass down a runway just after dark with a totally

take care of those leaves?


Yeah, that sounds about right. Tell them to watch out for the
trellis and the hedge.


Tell your neighbor to wear a hat or he'll not be able to do a comb
over for 6-8 months.
