    I have this yellow stuff growing on my grass. Looks like dog barf or vomit. It has a yellow coating, and is black on the inside...dries after 3-4 days to a powdery gray/blue. This stuff grows about an inch thick, and is spreading over my lawn....


    I figure its a fungus, and a brief internet search suggests it might be a "slime mold." Well, I ran over this stuff with my lawnmower which quickly vaporized it - and sent it straight into my lungs!

    What the H*ll did I just accidentally inhale???

    I have images of black mold, blastomycosis, and everything else flying through my head!!! Landscaper will come out in 2 days, what do I do in the meantime???

    Argghhh...

    I fell like I should give myself a bunch of antifungals meds just in case...


    Any help appreciated...

    Has it been a rainy year?

    Actually, that sounds pretty dire, Bo.

    If you start having drainage out of your chest laterally between your ribs, go immediately to the closest VA.

    Can I have your Ferrari?

    Apparantly this stuff is "slime mold." Gee, sounds nice. Thought not to be pathogenic...

    As a safety maneuver I bathed in tinactin yesterday, and mixed some "Goldbond" cream with my coffee... I also forced some Monistat into my lungs by putting it on my lawn and then vaporiing it with my lawnmower.

    All should be good now... :)






    Of course, I am just kidding (This last line added for the benefit of anyone stupid enough to do it).
