It’s a jungle out there. | The Bull Speaks!

From Fox News Online:
BLACKEY, Ky. (AP) â€??? “The mayor of an eastern Kentucky town has decided not to mow his overgrown lawn and he’s turning down offers from neighbors to do it for him.

Blackey Mayor Mike Dixon hasn’t mowed his lawn in the Letcher County town since last year.

Martha Burns of the Blackey City Council says Dixon likes to be his own person. She says she has no problem with the mayor’s tall grass and neither do the neighbors.

Dixon says flowers began popping up in his yard when he stopped pushing a mower across it. He says birds and squirrels also moved in.

Now he’s given his mower away and wishes others would do the same because he doesn’t like the noise they make when he’s trying to relax and enjoy his surroundings.”

Try that here in Mobile, AL and within a month the entire house would disappear behind a real jungle! Heck, if we get so much as a passing evening shower the yard springs up like some Chia Pet on steroids.

Bull, out.

    It would be a fire hazard here. I wouldn’t want to risk. However down South I would fear the killer kudzu

    The strange thing is that there is less kudzu here in South Alabama than back home in the Carolinas. Go figure.

    That is funny.

  4. I think he’s full of it. He’s too lazy to mow his yard, too cheap to hire somebody to mow it, too prideful to get a neighbors help, and probably mad that since he’s the mayor the city won’t mow it for free. I live in Kentucky and they’ve been covering this story for the last couple of days. The guys yard doesn’t look like a jungle or a forrest-it looks like a mess, and a health hazard. A few rattlesnakes or copperheads gravitating to that eyesopre yard of his might make him see the light.
