The Definition of Irony

You know when you try to get alot of work done in a hurry it is always nice to have an extra hand... Well at least I thought that was the truth. As the Burrito Bandit was mowing Saturday, I had a gentlemen offer to help. I was running short on time and gladly accepted the offer.

After a short while he comes to find me carrying my wheel to my push mower. He had broken the deck of the mower completely where the wheel attaches.

It still mowed with 3 wheels enough to get the job finished and then as I was putting it back on the trailer I noticed a stick hanging from the front. I immediately though it was simply a broken stick lodged. As I pulled on the stick I noticed that it was strategically inserted in place of the bolt that holds my gas tank and carburetor on the motor.

Now I am involved in alot of things here lately and I forget and misplace many things but I am almost positive I didn't break a small piece of stick and put in on my mower in place of a missing bolt!! LOL

So to finish up my story with a moral... Make sure that when you accept help from a generous person that it doesn't wind up being 1 step forward and 2 steps back!!!

Burrito Bandit Out!!
