New Yorkers are crazy, some idiot just payed £486 for a piece of dino dung he says he’s going to use at trade shows to promote his pooper scooper business. “Poop is big business in the pet industry” said Steve Tsengas, the man obviously knows his stuff if he’s prepared to pay that much for something he could probably get free from any zoo.

I suppose in fairness I should say this particular piece of dino dung was 130 million years old but poop is still poop in my books even if it did come from a dinosaur.

But it had me thinking, he’s a guy who makes money from clrearing away pet poop, and now he’s just paid a record amount for some dino poop, and I betcha his marketing people have a plan. They’re just waiting for the market to realize poop is worth money, then they’re gonna be in a prime position sitting on mountain loads of the stuff. Clever people heh?

So it made me realize I need to buy a few dogs, collect their poop, figure out some way to store it so I don’t have to smell it, maybe I’ll hire a warehouse somewhere, then wait a few years and off load it on eBay to people who think its cool to have poop on the living room shelf.
