Flame throwers and leaf blowers

I know I've used this metaphor before, but today I fancied myself the Private Jenette Vasquez of yard work. Though instead of a flame thrower, I wielded a leaf blower. And instead of toothy and drooling aliens, I slayed moldy leaves. 

And, to the tell the truth, 15 minutes into the task, I actually would have preferred the flame thrower. 

And the aliens.
