Wheat grass and bad dates

Anonymous Poo had a bad date this weekend. It wasn't just that the guy was self-absorbed, or that he took himself way too seriously; he was also, well, anal-retentive.

One of the best first dates AP ever had was with a guy she'll call Esteban. While walking back from lunch, AP and Esteban passed by a juice bar advertising the health benefits of wheat grass juice.

AP mentioned that she had never tried wheat grass juice and wondered if her bowels were suffering because of that.

Esteban responded, "Really, I find that my morning coffee and a croissant have the same effect." A poo discussion ensued. AP and Esteban dated for a few months after that.

So, while AP was listening to her recent date ramble on about his award-winning film and all the film festivals it has been in, she thought to herself, "If this guy would just allow himself a good crap, he'd stop with the verbal diarrhea."

No such luck. AP is not sorry to say that she won't be going out with this guy again.

Sprinkle Brigade

Anonymous Poo's friend tells her that there's a guy in her neighborhood who sticks photographs of Dick Cheney in piles of sidewalk dog poo. While AP believes that dog owners should be good citizens and pick up after their pooches, she must admit that leftover poo is as good a place to slap a political statement as any.

For those of you who don't want to mix your poo with politics, but still want to celebrate the beauty of "poop trouve", there's Sprinkle Brigade.


Sprinkle Brigade patrols the streets of New York in search of doggie dung to poke, prop and photograph. This is alchemy of the highest order - transforming ordinary poo into brilliant works of art, and hilariously naming them with clever titles. Holy crap!

Holy crap, indeed.

What is your poo trying to say?

According to the publishers, this book is "A tell-all tribute that demystifies the digestive tract, once and for all. Complete with trivia, case histories and yes, illustrations."


Who hasn't experienced D.A.D.S.?


Finally - a book for you and me! It's even co-written by a doctor, so you know it's not completely lowbrow. What's Your Poo Telling You? is available at Urban Outfitters.

Fossilized Feces

From the BBC News:

"Fossilised faeces found in a US cave may help solve the riddle of when and how humans came to the Americas.

The samples date back just over 14,000 years, before the time of the Clovis culture.

... This and 13 other coprolites - fossilised faeces - proved the star attraction, because they contained tiny quantities of human mitochondrial DNA - genetic material found outside the nuclei of cells which is passed down from each mother to her children."

Who knew feces could fossilize? Anonymous Poo always assumed that such a thing would just decompose and eventually become oil. Well, AP is glad to have learned something new today.

In today's news...

From Fox News:

Woman Goes for Leg Surgery, Gets New Anus Instead

A German retiree is taking a hospital to court after she went in for a leg operation and got a new anus instead, the Daily Telegraph is reporting.

The woman woke up to find she had been mixed up with another patient suffering from incontinence who was to have surgery on her sphincter.

The clinic in Hochfranken, Bavaria, has since suspended the surgical team.

Now the woman is planning to sue the hospital. She still needs the leg operation and is searching for another hospital to do it.

Hmm...

This was - no kidding - part of my lunch today.
