They found him after he’d been brutally tended to death by fifty malfunctioning Agro-bots.
His corpse had been thoroughly weeded, fertilized, pruned, fungicided, insecticided, mulched, and watered.
Closer inspection revealed that the Agro-bots were still waiting for more work.
The forensics team suddenly realized they were not alone.

“Sir, did you just say ‘beep’?”
“No, why?”
I can just see them looking over their shoulders to find the fifty malfunctioning agro-bots sitting there.

It was in a box lot that someone else had bought and the new owner didn't know what to think of it, so my wife offered her $15.00.
It now sits on a shelf by the front door to greet peeople.

"It now sits on a shelf by the front door to greet peeople." Somehow it seems appropriate that a vacuum cleaner should be shaped like an aardvark.
It has that organic, ergonomic thing going for it.

The snow is rotting? yes it gets warm during the day and when you walk on it you fall through. We call it "rotting"

I remember that from Rhode Island, but I didn’t know there was a special word for it.

It is what the locals call it. So it just may be a local thing!
