I know of two.

When I was very small, the neighbor's kid was hit by a thrown stone and killed.

So that's one.

Which wouldn't have been helped by any kind of cutout switch.

A push mower can throw a stone just as easily. Neither of them would usually kill anyone. Probably just as likely to be killed by a fly entering your eye while cycling, causing you to be temporarily blinded and crash headlong into a tree.

Because of that, my Dad refused to ever have a power mower, so I mowed the lawn with a manual push mower until I left the house.

that's two.

How is it two? You weren't injured.


Whoosh!
A "push mower" is not a "power mower"
It works on muscle power.

Clare, just curious...

This is the second time today that you have responded to *my* response
to Mr. Birdbrain with a comment that seems to be directed at him.

I don't mind hearing from you, but I'm wondering why you aren't responding
directly to his (ridiculous) posts instead of mine.
Because I don't see birdbrain's posts.

No, because you want to respond to me even though you've killfiled me. You lack conviction.

It's some silly game that trolls play. They like to reply with no text, I think it means they're giving a blank look or something. Whatever it is, they think they're being clever.

Idiot. It was nothing more that an inadvertent tap of the post button on an iPad.

You think you're so smart, but you're just a fool.
