Grex Scruples Item 63: The lawn
Entered by carson on Mon Aug 22 05:34:32 UTC 1994:

(your neighbor's lawn hasn't been mowed in months! it's beginning
to look rather unsightly, much like a nature preserve in the middle
of a parking lot.)

(do you offer to cut it?)

At my age I'd maybe ask if they'd pay me.

What sort of neighbor?  If it were a neighbor who I knew pretty well, I
might.  OTOH, there's this coop near my house where the lawn almost never
gets cut.  Nobody complains, however, because they never make any noise,
unlike the fraternities (and yes, I probably would offer to turn down the
sterios for the frat people, if I though they'd let me).

I would pay attention to what people say in the agora
item related to this....

yeah, I like unmowed lawns...

I'm out of practice at cutting grass anyway.  If I had a chance
to speak to the neighbor, I might ask permission to pull out any
ragweed in there.

Offer a lawnmower or check on neighbor
