HOW CRAPPY
I just finished reading an article that I thought was funny. There's fellow living in Loxahatchee, Florida who is being charged with running an illegal composting site. Now, we're all familiar with composting, so what exactly made the authorities charge this guy?
Well, it seems he has 20,000 cubic yards of horse manure on his property. In some spots, this stuff is piled 15 feet high. I suppose he could use the Paul McCartney marijuana defence and say it was for personal use (not to smoke but to help his rose bushes bloom) but that might be a bit iffy.
Neighbours complained about the smell and called environmental regulators. I've never found anything too offensive about horse manure, unless you're at the back of the parade and have to walk through it, but 20,000 cubic YARDS? Yeah, that might be a bit much. It sure would clean out your sinuses. Okay, not as well as pig shit, but it would do an admirable job nonetheless.
The authorities say they suspect he was receiving dump truck loads of manure from neighbouring equestrian communities in nearby Palm Beach. Ya think? I don't know much about horses, but this just a little too much output for one animal. Even after you give him an enema.
Obviously he was trying to sell the stuff but I guess the locals now prefer Zoo-Poo to the humdrum horse or cattle manure. Makes your lillies roar like a tiger, you know.
The authorities have issued three misdemeanour charges which might end up putting the guy in jail for up to 18 months and fines of up to $30,000. I can just see the guy going to jail and telling his new best friend Bubba that he's in for horseshit. Bubba would agree that everyone in the joint was in for horseshit, but what was he really in for? What can he say but repeat, "Horseshit"?
The article didn't state what was to be done to remove these piles of 'compost' but I'd be willing to bet they could ship it off to government offices and replace some of the people who run the state or country at present. Let's be honest, the pile couldn't do any worse.

omfg...that poor guy! I mean sure, horses can put out a lot of manure, and several of them can fill up a paddock right quick, but THAT amount of horseshit!?
Uh no...I can't see anyone getting that much from one equestrian stable!
They must be putting out some major doo doo over there for him to end up with 20,000 cubic yards of it!
And the fact that he's gonna be fined and possibly jailed?
Well that's just...well, shit!
LOL
Take care,

Thanks for stopping in, buddy.
even though I'm an equine veterinarian, I don't "love the smell of horse shit in the morning!" either...
Try not cleaning up a paddock for one day after one horse, and you'll start to see what I mean...
I don't blame his neighhbors one bit, but comeon, jail time for crap?
Too much...
Take care,
Nick
