There was nobody around, so I kept it... a lot of money to a kid who mowed lawns for like $3 apiece.

If you, like, mowed lawns for, like, $3 during the sixties, you like, were moving lawns, in, like, Hollywood, because like in the sixties, the minimum wage was, like .90/hour.

I really like the word like it's, like so, like descriptive, know what I mean?

The going rate in the Philly burbs in the early 1970's was 5 bucks a lawn.

you are right. I mowed lawns in the mid-60s for $.25 with a push mower.
