Wisconsin man mows lawn
Posted July 25, 2008
Or, at least, he tried to, had trouble with his lawn mower, and, well, things got a little crazy: Dick Wagner of Wagner's Garden Mart, 6075 N. Green Bay Ave., said shooting the mower didn't help Walendowski's odds of getting it repaired.

I'm so glad they printed the fact that shooting the mower voids the warranty.

the way the story reads, the reporter actually called a lawnmower retailer to see if damage from a shotgun would be covered under warranty.
I've had some wicked hangovers and might have kicked the dog once or twice, but this is something that never occurred to me.

How drunk do you have to be at 9:30 AM to think that shooting your lawnmower is going to solve anything?

reading about a guy named dick from milwaukee reminds me of my favorite deceased milwaukeean, who had the best name ever...Dick Bacon.

Kevin is right. There's drunk, and then there's Wisconsin drunk...

Whatever, I'm sure you could still return it if you bought it from Costco.

if you got it at wal mart, you could get merchandise credit for the mower AND for the buckshot.

Here's the mower I use. Wjen I was having some trouble with it a few years ago, they just gave me a new one. Nice.

Actually, he could probably return it at Costco if he *didn't* buy it there.

At least Bob's mower is cordless unlike my neighbor who can be hear yelling and cursing as he tries to avoid both the cord to his mower and the enormous dog turds while chopping his weed patch.
And how drunk is Wisconsin drunk? I may have crossed that line and not even known it.

my neighbors yell at each other all day and night. when we first moved in we thought it was a domestic distrurbance. then we realized that this is how couples in their 80's and 90's carry on a conversation. part pent up anger after being married so long, and part being deaf.

Example of Wisconsin drunk:
Having sex with a dead deer.
well, then, I guess I have been Wisconsin drunk.

I think I'll go get Wisconsin drunk right now!

I'll be getting SD drunk tonight...much more conservative and minus the dead animal sex...
unless you count Grote's mom...
Are you getting drunk with the one black guy in SD? I didn't even know there were that many until that one dude said so on Wednesday.

So sad.
Teucer's mom's been tossed aside like a used two-bit whore just because some fresh meat shows up.
How bout the mother of 'rote
You can paddle her like she's a boat
She's easy to please
But she's got mad STDs
I'm sorry to end the day on such a sad note

And then there's this guy. The story is curiously quiet on what constitutes "sex" with a motor vehicle, as opposed to merely foreplay.

I don't want to know where that invisible hand has been.

I propose a new category for strange stories called Wisconsin or England?
A strange story runs and the author asks -- did it happen in Wisconsin or England?
»» Submitted by »»» Rat at 6:59 PM on July 25
The story ran in an English paper, but the guy is from Washington state. Or maybe he's really from Wisconsin and they confused the two.

This guy is the face of Warsaw or Milwaukee.
