Spring Rains bring flowers and GCB (Grass-Cuttin' Bud)

Well, the rain is here, probably to stay for a while, too. It's about time, though. The ground was starting to get really dry and brown. Spring rains help "purty" flowers bloom and brown grass turn green. As grass grows green, it also gets taller...if you are tired of this by mid-May, then I have a solution for you! It's called the Grass-Cuttin' Bud - GCB for short. The Center has one...we obtained our GCB about 1.5 years ago. To deploy the device, simply place it on top of any pre-existing lawnmower, and let it go to work. For best results, install your Grass-Cuttin' Bud on a lawnmower like the one seen here:


How does this amazing product work, you ask? Well every morning the GCB "wakes" up and literally gets itself to work...and when it gets here, it is ready to go! There are several primary parts to this contraption: Every GCB has a pair of legs and a pair of arms. All GCB's have a face, but you have to buy the software to give it emotion...ours came with the software already installed...a "turn-key" GCB if I may. We got the "happy, but sometimes dry humor and sarcastic" version. I am pretty astounded by the results of the GCB. If you choose to upgrade to the Version 2.9 GCB (the year 'round version), like we did, it can also be programmed to drive tractors and automobiles, as well as repair air conditioning & heat units, build stuff, and even participate in staff meetings.

Now that Spring is here, the GCB is primed and ready to begin annihilating the acres and acres of grass we have at the Center. Now, in order to run the GCB all day long, you have to also purchase the electronic charge-up and weather protection software. When you purchase this box, you will open it to find an iPod and a straw hat, like the pictures below:














These items will keep the GCB both alert and protected from the sun on those long summer days. Without the kit, you risk boredom and improper grass-cutting. Also, please provide your GCB with a bottle of water on a regular basis, as the device could overheat.

Now, enjoy your GCB responsibly, and it will love you back. It will return your affection with beautifully manicured lawns in a very efficient manner. The only downside to the GCB is that you have to remove items from your lawn before deploying the GCB device. The GCB device operates best in early light situations. The high speed device's warning labels state that all toys and garden hoses should be removed prior to grass cutting, or otherwise risk destruction. But any responsible grass grower can keep the GCB's "line of fire" clear from debris...just pick up after yourself.

Our Grass-Cuttin' Bud has been a relief. Before this, only mortal men could cut the grass. Technology has brought us many things: sliced bread, internet, the shoe phone, and the GCB. All GCB's look a little different, as they are all handcrafted and perfected by an engineer named Vicky. If you are thinking about getting one, check the classifieds to get one that is pre-programmed. We love ours, and know that you will, too!
