Weed Eater
Why has my weed eater stopped working?
My weed eater won't start. I prime it and it sputters for a minute and then dies. Could it have junk in the line? How do I fix it?
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the spark plug - 2 cycle motors are rough on them, since its an oil mix - just take it to local autoparts and match up a replacement.

Choosing the Best Weed Eater
One of the great time saving devices for trimming a lawn is a weed eater. A weed whacker can mow down a large patch of weeds and grass in no time, leaving you with more time to do more productive things. Weed eaters all basically have the same design but they do come in different sizes and power ranges. You will also see a variety of power sources for different weed eaters, from the old traditional electric weed eater that uses an extension cord to the more powerful gas powered models and now days you can also buy battery powered models that set you free from extension cord hell.
So what do you look for when it comes to buying a new weed eater? Well it depends on what how big your yard is, how many weeds and edge trimming you need to do and how much you want to spend. You don't want one that's too small and can't handle the job but if you have a small yard you probably don't need a gas powered behemoth either. You do want to make sure the weed eater you choose has the power to do the job you want. Weeds can be notoriously stubborn and you want a weed whacker that easily powers through the thickest of weed stems. When choosing a weed eater you want to get the most power for the amount of money you have to spend.
When it comes choosing a new weed eater price is of course going to be the deciding factor as to which brand and model you ultimately purchase. If you have plenty of money then the choices you have are unlimited. Of course if price is no factor for someone they probably have someone else taking care of the lawn. Be realistic about what you can afford and get the most weed whacking power for you buck.
The final consideration before you plop down your hard earned cash is the size of your new weed eater. Most home improvement stores have demo models on display. Try them all on for size. You don't want one that's too heavy or awkward to use. Try to find a model that's adjustable as that will give you the best fit and comfort level. If you're going to be spending the better part of the day whacking weeds you want to be as comfortable as possible.
Weigh all three factors equally and when you make your purchase you will have a weed eater that is the perfect size with the right amount of power for the right price.

Because of Obama Hero – a crazy idea for a computer game based on the art of speech-making? I have not seen a scooter like that, but I would like to. The dragonfly wings really take it in to crazy territory. In fact, they make me think that I am not being crazy enough. I'm putting a crazy kind of English reserve on my crazy tendencies. In future I will call lawn mowers 'weed eaters', which in some places will be enough to get me called crazy all by itself.
Cheers for comment!

Not really, just another cool little machine from the past.

You use it in a double-handed swinging motion, not unlike a golf swing, keeping the blade level to the ground. Keep the same speed on the back swing as the forward swing. You can get right up against the foundation with one and closer to trees with greater control so you don't knick the bark. There are several kinds, the double edged serrated (my favorite), the double edged smooth, and the half-n-half (one side serrated, the other smooth). It shears through grass and weeds like a dream faster and nicer than the weed eaters. And, if you play golf, it improves your golf game amazingly well.
For heavier stuff, you'd want a shuffle hoe, and the name is descriptive of the motion used – a sweeping back and forth in front of you like you're playing shuffle board.
