Of all the varieties of weeds in my yard, this is the one that I hate the most. I don’t know what it’s called. It has deep roots and an annoying yellow flower at the top. The flower seems to serve as the weed’s victory flag. It’s saying to me, “You dug me up, sprayed me with poison, and ran me over with your John Deere lawn mower. Is that the best you can do?”

This has become personal.

I’m on my way to Lowe’s Home & Garden to pick up a bottle of Roundup. We’ll see who gets the last laugh….
