Attention Northern losers while you loafed inside the house watching Judge Judy all winter. I have enjoyed the warm sun and sand of beautiful south west Florida. I now sport a real Florida suntan and a healthy glow of 20 lb less from working and playing in the lovely Florida sun. My southern host whom is royalty in his own right has benefited from Royal presents and my vast knowledge of computers, marketing and commercial estimating. After taking my host's 5 week post grad education in southern turf I will be purchasing a brand new Walker 25 hp GHS 48". Therefore I will be throwing out my present Toro junk mowers and allowing you northern peons to dumpier dive for what parts you so desire. For the next several winters I will be returning to the sunshine state to complete my education in southern turf grass management while you northern losers freeze you tail off watching Judge Judy.

losers, peons. hmmm i do not know who you are but maybe while you are at school you could learn more intelligent words to use in your post and think before you start calling us losers or peons. me thinks you are just jealous or making up for something else. if this is how you refer to others on this site then this must bode well for your business.

best of luck!

I knew one day Stone would figure out that riding was better than w/b's. It just took him getting educated in the south to find that out.:D

What were some of those statements about people buying new equipment?;)

After you weed out the rubbish, you can clearly see that Stone has come to reason with new technologies and productivity.

So let the I told you so's begin.

I didnt know that you were a Walker owner Mike???

I also wouldnt call Walker's in the same category as a Z. I realize that they are both riders but they serve two totally different purposes.

Its almost like trying to say that someone who always drove trucks bought an Escalade and your comparing that purchase to a Ford Explorer. Are they both an SUV -yes. Are they comparable - Id like to think not -LOL!!!

Heygrassman,

I understand your confusion. That quote is written in stonetalk. Let me see if I can translate it for you.

Basically, what he said in that line was, "Hi everyone. It's great to be back home. I sure missed you guys. Love and peace to all of you."

I think that is the PC translation. Hope it helps.

By the way, Mr. Stone is from Pennsylvania concerning the war between the states retort.

Did you still retain that 52" chest, Stone? Or did you lose some of that too?

Just hope you didn't leave Ric's lawns the same that you posted of yours. LOL

I ain't buying it.

A leopard doesn't lose it's spots :laugh:

Stone's post was composed for shock value and indeed it has succeeded...

Next, Stone will trade in his antique motor home for a new one?

That's not the Lawrence Stone I know LOL

WHAT???? The KING of TORO WB's is buying a "JUNK" Walker as he used to refer to them. I'm a PROUD Walker owner and remember that Larry used to CURSE a Walker Mower. The Toro 52" WB was the only way to mow. So WHAT's up Stone????? Why the change of HEART? Explain this to me!!!!!!!!
I know that you will like your new Walker over your old Toro WB's.

Good Luck,
Mowman

Gotta see your mug on a Walker to believe this one.LOL. IF it was a Walker it sure wouldn't be a 48"GHS ,maybe a 52" discharge and I do mean maybe.Good laugh though.

The above translation is very accurate. Stone will play with your mind while taking the shirt off his back to give it to you. Under his ruff exterior lies a heart of gold. Many of you are to up tight to give Stone the credit he deservers. But the beautiful thing is, he does not give a crap what you think. Take this from someone who knows. ah yes Stone can be a little to much to handle at times a lot of times. But I would like to think Stone is a true friend of mine not a fair weather friend.

I will post more about this thread at a later date.

Lmao, as much as I HATE to admit it, I do like Stone, he's good people. Lmao. That just sounds so funny. He's a tad cocky/weird, but that's okay, so am I. I truly think the forum would be rather dull without his occasional posts here and there that make you laugh.

That 32" Toro rigged up thing that he had with the spreader and sprayer etc. was actually pretty cool.

Lol, welcome back Stone, maybe you should come down to Oklahoma next winter and yack it up with some of us hicks. Just don't expect to stay around here. Hahaha.

We want pics of the Walker! This is what I think it'll look like....

Hey Stone, when you put those worn out Toros up for sale, be sure to autograph each one so it will bring top dollar.

Love those 'free mumia' signs - but don't include those in your price! :p

I knew Ric would convert ya to join our "Walker Cult" LOL

please send me any ideas and refinements you do to your Walker

if i was you, i'd look into the 26hp EFI, they are sweet.....

kutnkru

are you confused?

A Walker is a Z just like Exmarks, Dixies etc....

to be correct....

Walker = front mount ZTR

Dixie, Exmark, etc...= mid-mount ztr

Im not confused at all -LOL!!!

Its just my personal opinion that if I had to compare a Walker/Z-rider in the suv world I would be more inclined to view a Walker as Cadillac's Escalade and a Z more along the lines of the Ford Explorers.

I just think that they each have their own place in the arsenal, but they shouldnt be thought of in the same class regardless of deck positioning.

How do we know this is the real Mr. Stone? Maybe the trip to fla. was just a coverup and he was really abducted by aliens and this is a clone.

My suspicions were aroused when several people tried to slam him on this thread and he didn't respond with his usual flair and panache.
