When we were kids, a couple of twins spent the summer at gram's house next door to me. They were a couple of years older than I was: About 10 or 12. One talked a few neighbours into letting him mow their lawn. He raked in what seemed a fortune that summer: $3.

In late August, the carnival came to town and they wanted to go. Their gram would only allow this if the 'wealthy' boy took his brother, and paid for both! So, it was shell-out or stay home --- Some choice!

They came the next year too. Neither mowed any lawns.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. The 'lazy' one was the hunk! I had a crush.
