I am getting rid of my toilet!

I was watching Spike TV last night and they were showing a program about the "Worst Jobs in the World". Anyway, check out this bizarre ecommerce project a lady has undertaken. She has two dogs. She feeds them this mixture of dry and wet foods, waits for them to poop, collects the poop, puts them in a bag, puts messages on the bags and sells them on the internet. She says her best customers are ex-lovers. The interesting thing was that she had some 10 USPS boxes on her table ready to ship. Is this a crazy idea or what? Inspired by this lady's creativity, I am going to start an ecommerce site right after I finish my burrito. :D

Wow. I wonder if she could be sued if someone got worms or something when they opened the bag.

there was a site that about 2 years ago, smellypoop.com, that would do the same but with more exotic types. Camel costed $45. They are now shut down I think. Health Standards were not met in that company.

man that proves it, if marketed properly you can even sell crap.

Yes it proves that.

But from that the inferences are more interesting:

Society has materialistic people in it.
Society has stupid people in it.

I blame it on the education system and not screening embros for extremly low iq genes.

I'd rather sell information than crap; much easier, cheaper, and smells nicer.

wow

With a large dog and 2 people, not including myself, in this house I could really start quite an operation.

Imagine the stock control problems if you misjudged demand and were left with all of your christmas surplus ;)
