    • The Ostrich Report On: Lawns

      Posted at 1:00 pm by ostrichreport, on March 13, 2019

      A luscious, green lawn is more than just a plant-carpet in front of your house. It’s basically the very essence of America and all that it stands for. Sadly, it turns out that lawns are also wasteful, dangerous, and they bring out the crazy in people which… OK, granted, are also the very essences of America. But more importantly, they’re things that I learned from Pete, a lawncare specialist from Colorado, and Dr. Smith, a professor of turfgrass science.

    • The Ostrich Report On: Working At A Nuclear Power Plant

      Posted at 1:00 pm by ostrichreport, on December 12, 2018

      The topic of nuclear power tends to divide people. On the one hand, you have those who think nuclear energy is the best alternative to fossil fuels that we have.
