Next to the chair was a riding lawn mower with the key in it. He tried the mower and it worked, and he said "Wow! I could use this!" I said the mower isn't free - the CHAIR is!! He said "No, it must be the mower because it has the key in it." I knocked on the door but no one was home. And he went home and got his truck and came back and loaded up the mower. I still to this day think he stole that mower.....SunSpotBabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01458795387822122072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155420.post-91635175235799912382008-07-01T22:26:00.000-04:002008-07-01T22:26:00.000-04:00I've never grasped the "take it free if it's by th...I've never grasped the "take it free if it's by the curb" bit. Why not put a sign on it if it's free or just throw it away and let someone retrieve it from the dumpster?
