Good morning peevers.

It's yet another totally gorgeous sunrise out there- really sunny and is set to be another warm day.

With the recent weather there has been more outdoor activity with people starting to cut grass and others having tree work done.

I noticed a strong smell of gasoline a couple of days ago and traced it to a neighbour who is about 100 yards away. It was his lawnmower.

That gave me the idea for today's peeve;

Smelly motors (of all sorts).

Yep, getting behind a bus or diesel truck emitting all that black stinky smoke into your system.

My neighborhood has no grass lawns so we don't have to put up with any lawnmower nuisances.

As a kid I used to chase cars from the side of the street, thinking that smelling the fumes could make me fly like Mighty Mouse. Oh the things a 7 yr old does.

That's nothing to worry about.

If you're doing the same thing at 27 then maybe something's going on!
