Notes on Suburbia

1º The best way to help your city government and have fun is to come out on a Saturday morning and pull weeds in a median strip.
2º I bought the lawn in six-foot rolls. It's easy to handle. I prepared the ground and my wife and son helped roll out the grass. In one day you have a front yard.
3º We're really happy. Our kids are healthy, we eat good food and we have a really nice home.
4º I wanted Christina to learn some responsibility for cleaning her room, but it didn't work.
