I followed a woman here to get married. Left Long Island, which had
advantages and disadvantages. I don't miss the traffic, or the fact that
women there put on 12 pounds of makeup just to run to the grocery store
for
a gallon of milk. But the beach....at least there was the beach.

Your worried about leaves? Wait till it snows. Glad I left Rochester 20
years ago.

Rochester NY: We're being buried in leaves. My son and I raked up 40+
bags
of leaves in about 2 hours this past Sunday. We seem to be alone in the
use
of that prehistoric tool, the rake. I'm surrounded by neighbors in
their
early 30s to mid 40s, in good shape, all of whom use leaf blowers and
take
all day to gather the same amount of leaves. And...cripes....the noise!

generation.

What's with these things? Is Home Depot putting guns to peoples' heads
and
forcing them to buy leaf blowers?
