You've heard of student exchange programs, but have you ever considered a lawn mower exchange program? 

South Coast AQMD is hosting a Go Green! Lawn and Garden Expo in conjunction with the Lawnmower Exchange events. These Expos will showcase eco-friendly lawn-care equipment and related green products and services that save energy, conserve water and allow you to maintain the garden you desire.

The closest exchange event will be held in Pasadena on June 9. Click HERE for more details, such as exchange dates and locations.

I agree Bill. Enough snippin' and tail bitin' and finger pointin'...I do find it amusing to think…Read More what would happen if people who wanted to have a parade/carnival just made it happen. Let's make a parade and carnival, not war.

The reason the carnival went away was because some in power thought gangsters and some rowdy…Read More elements at the carnival made the atmosphere a little to uninviting at times, that was nonsense. When they got out of hand they were kicked out or went to jail. It was ridiculous to end the carnival and to stop the parade based on financing could have been avoided if the problem of financing would have been attacked early enough. Or are people going to tell me there's not enough people in Monrovia willing to give their time, talent and money to make it happen? I grew up in town, haven't lived in Monrovia in a long time but am still one that would assist in seeing the parade and carnival return. As for the cost for police and city employees to work it maybe if they were approached and told it would have to be on a comp time basis only, not pay, they'd be willing to do so. That wouldn't result in some big unfunded liability as you're only talking about an event that's four days at most. This could happen, just takes time, effort and some willingness of people to co-operate with each other to get it done.
