Manly Lawn & Garden questions
**DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS**
**Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer,** to get the most people matching you. Google or other research is allowed, if you desire. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.
Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
If any of you have ideas for Feuds -_and would like me to score them_- PM me and I’ll get you on [The List.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=10488145#post10488145)
_ **FORMATTING OF ANSWERS IS IMPORTANT!** _
**Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.
JUST LIKE THIS:
**1. answer \<\<—There is a space after the period!
2. response
3. rejoinder**
The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at **4:00 PM Central** on Friday, 01/02/09 whichever comes first.
Good luck!

11. Since it’s now winter, I was tempted to say snow-shovelling but that’s not really lawn & garden related.
12. Where I live, Monday is the day before the garbageman collects yard waste so it makes sense to do it then rather than earlier and let the grass clippings ferment in the summer heat.
13. Early evening during the summer before the sun has completely gone down.
14. Was $20 but the spike in gas prices during the summer necessitated a $5 increase. If prices stay where they are, it could be back at $20 next summer.
15. I know I’ll be the only one who mentions this but the grass and pollen sometimes results in a sneezing fit and runny nose after I’m done.
16. Never had experience with one, however. I think the excessive number of squirrels in my neighborhood provides too much competition for another rodent-live varmint to settle in. I wanted to put in wasps or hornets but they’re not really varmints and don’t damage lawns.
