My neighbor insists on mowing his lawn in the shape of a giant smiley face. It's quirky, but is there a polite way to suggest a more traditional approach? Shirley

Hi Shirley! The answer is maybe. Why would you want to ask your neighbor to change the shape of HIS lawn? Traditional is YOUR way of thinking- and there's nothing wrong with that. Unless the design is derogatory, or brings down home values (which is doubtful) let him express his happiness the way he sees fit. It truly IS his business only. May you find your happiness as you see fit too!
