Dead Like Me," a Showtime series that explores the lives (or afterlives) of a group of grim reapers who walk among the livingShe recalls the exact moment she dumped her own strimmer for good. “A mother I knew sliced through the leg of her small child. She was using a bush cutter and he came running up to her and she turned to him but the bush cutter kept going. My own children were small at the time and I stopped using a strimmer from that moment because I just didn’t want to take the risk.” Not that she had liked it anyway: it was noisy, polluting and limiting, and it left her with vibration white finger.

The use of a scythe was historically called mowing, now often scything to distinguish it from machine mowing. The mower holds the top handle in the left hand and the central one in the right, with the arms straight, the blade parallel and very close to the ground. The mower cuts along the mowing edge of the meadow, keeping the uncut grass to the right. The blade hooks the grass on the right and is swung to the left in a long arc ending to the left of the mower to form a windrow of cut grass on the previously mown ground. The mower takes a small step forward and repeats the motion, proceeding with a steady rhythm, stopping at frequent intervals to hone the blade. The correct technique has a slicing action on the grass, leaving a swathe of uniformly cut stubble, and forming a regular windrow on the left. [6] Men working in a field near Fort Frances, between 1900 and 1909 Latvians named Death Veļu māte, but for Lithuanians it was Giltinė, deriving from the word gelti ("to sting").

The legend tells that Giltinė was young, pretty, and communicative until she was trapped in a coffin for seven years. Her sister was the goddess of life and destiny, Laima, symbolizing the relationship between beginning and end.

When these visions come true, the protagonists manage to avoid harm, though many innocent people are killed.

We had a man who bought a scythe after he lost an eye from a stone thrown up by a bush cutter. It whizzes round at a hell of a speed and throws out stones at great speed.
