I have no idea what it is that I could be doing to cause this. I have switched to another browser "Edge".

zila1 I seent that!! But that doesn't explain the box or the missing post?! Might I add like Aleslammers post got mysteriously moved from team section to F@H section. weird stuff going on in this forum. We should lock it down from the public for a couple weeks (IMO) I'm going to the priest. He has answers!

Yeah....hacked by me.
I've been editing.
It's not always there. If it were, there would be a large gap between the signature cutoff line and the top of where the square would be.
Has to do with Eddie's blank signature.
I will figure it out. Just takes time and a little experimentation.
It has nothing to do with the public.

I suppose that's your way of asking me to keep it cool about what I say out in the open forum?  Go get a Hot Tub already.... gosh. |

Nah. I've never suppressed anything anybody has said unless it was totally out of line.
Just wanted to figure out if it was the site or something else.
Got it figured out. Eddie's FF install in polluted. Any other browser he uses doesn't produce the box.

Yup, my FF is F'd.
Uninstall and re-install the browser. or maybe it needs to be updated?
FF DOES NOT auto-update versions as many people seem to believe... maybe you're version is old? My version is 67.

The latest version does and has no option to disable auto-updating, even within the about.config menu.
That's why I switched over to Pale Moon even though it doesn't run as well.

I'm on Edge for time being. I think I'm liking it too.
I'll do a total clean re-install of Firefox later on. I did do a re-install a day ago but the problem persisted...….but I did forget to manually delete the Mozilla folders. It's uninstalled as of right now including all it's folders.

Made an oil change for the B&S Classic II engine yesterday before mowing the lawn. Volume: 0,55 litre.
If some of you have followed up on F1 (Formula tour) then you'd recognize some of the names in this race :
Looks scary as hell, high risk of neck injury if the "machine" rolls over. Race begins at 1:40

Could be George but a Briggs as shown IS a tough little motor, we've known that as fact for basically all our lives.
If only they made them like they did back in the day.
Speaking of such I guess it's time to reboot the thread.
I do have grass starting up again, probrably by this time next month at the latest I'll already be mowing again. Will have to pull the zero turn into the garage at the next warm weather spell so I can do a spring servicing to it so it's ready for the mowing season to come.
Funny thing about how it ended last year, we had a drought that was bad enough from late August to mid October the last time any grass was mowed here was right before I went up to Harrisburg.
I could have tried mowing it but didn't want to scalp the yard and wind up with bald spots in the yard over the winter.
When the grass is dying off and turning brown it's best not to mow it or let anyone else do that.
You don't know if conditions will change to allow regrowing of grass to help avoid baldspots in the yard that can lead to washout spots/ruts when the rain/snow comes along later, that's why I left it alone during that time.
We've had enough recently the ground next to the curb is so soft your foot will sink down a few inches at least just stepping in that area, the entire yard more or less is really spongy to say the least of it and the mower would probrably go down right now if I try it.

Have mowed the grass 9 times this season. Replaced wheels and fixed a crack in the chassis. Reckon will have to mow at least 1-2 times more this year.

That's all?
We average 25 mows a season here.

Same here. We've had enough rain to mow about once a week.
Tune up and a new deck belt and blades this year.

25 times a season? Means, once every week for half a year. hmm . Sounds like a tropical area  |

Plants love it. But yeah, once a week for 6 months, but the growing season is more like 9 months. When it doesn't rain, you don't mow. This year so far it's rained just about every week. |

Weeds grow even without rain. You have to mow at least once a week. During the summer, you can get away with every other week for a month or so. In the spring, sometimes it's twice a week. If you wait a whole week, you'll be mowing foot high grass.
I'm only 10 miles from a Great Lake so our weather is influenced by that also.

Oh my God, those weeds. I hate them. Then there's the crab grass. I have to stay on it or the weeds will take over. Lots of rain this year. Laid some weed n feed down two weeks ago. Lawn is super green and weeds are dying off but damn if I don't have to mow twice and sometimes even three times a week.

Growing season here at 60'th is 5-6 months. Sometimes, I like the exercise the mowing can bring. The noisy piece of iron is 25kg/55 lbs. Then go count the miles of pushing mowers for years, just trying to keep the grass at bay.

This just reminded me that it's time to over seed now too. And pretty soon gotta spread some lime.

At our summer house out in the northern Baltic archipelago we have this. If it does not get cut by mid May, it will grow like.. 3ft in a week.

Last autumn I brought home our secondary lawn mower from our summer house, a self propelling rear wheel driven, china mfd. Strong engine, 190cc, 20", but heavy. Had used it long ago for a couple of seasons at the summer house, until the plastic belt guard broke, pieces missing. Some tree branch got mulched. Broken belt guard resulted in grass being thrown into the belt drive and causing many issues. Of course, a matching spare part was nowhere to be found, I let the junk be, and took and used the old B&S machine and a weed wacker instead. Today made a "home-fix" for the belt guard, and resharpened the blade. The mowing season will start in some three weeks, so I hope I can have some use of this lawn mower.
