Hermatige, PA (PRWEB) January 24, 2005 -- Richard Mudrinich, Rescue Rick the
Grass Cut Man (sm), has written the Rescue Rick Opera©, a short opera, to tell
his story and express the pain and emotions associated with his lawn mower
accident. The opera is a combination of an opera buffa (comedy) and verismo
(real story). In an operatic baritone voice, Rescue Rick (sm) belts out the aria
“I Cut Off My Big Toe and Some.” The libretto (text) of the opera offers a
first-hand account of the experience, treatment, and recovery process.
Furthermore, it drives toward a national and global revolution toward the
mission of eliminating yard accidents. Please visit the Rescue Rick the Grass
Cut Man (sm) website for the full text of the libretto. Rescue Rick (sm) is a
renaissance yardman, utilizing various art forms to communicate his safety
message.
“I want to try a different approach in getting the attention of
the general public, so they will think twice before they cut the grass. Lawn
mower accidents happen in a split-second, often resulting in a life-altering
outcome that sometimes includes amputation. I learned from first-hand experience
when I amputated part of my left foot while cutting the grass,” shares
Rick.
Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) wants to create awareness
regarding the frequency and severity of lawn mower accidents and to promote
preventive measures to rescue individuals from lawn mower accidents. Each year,
there are about 100,000 lawn mower accidents. Furthermore, the U.S. Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CPSC) reports that hospital emergency rooms treat
more than 400,000 outdoor garden-tool-related accidents each year. Estimates
from past statistics indicate that yardwork accidents fatally injure more than
3,000 people. I want to present preventive measures to rescue (hence, Rescue
Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm) - a real-life caped crusader for yard safety)
individuals and families from going through the dreaded experience associated
with yard accidents. According to Rescue Rick the Grass Cut Man (sm), "Think
before you cut! It hurts! I encourage you to heed lawn mower safety precautions
and promote yard safety!"
