Due to the unsanitary handling of feces, this video has been banned for younger audiences!

    I accidentally played this video for my children, aged 13, before noticing the disclaimer regarding ‘younger audiences’. They now have questions regarding the handling of feces. What do you recommend I do now?

  7. Mmmmm, good question Matt! (I’m thinking about the mind eraser gadget that Will Smith used on MIB!)
    Seriously, bodily fluids are not a joking matter, and we take all comments seriously….. the use of sterile gloves, and proper disposal of feces is my recommendation.
    I understand that YOU are the bike rider! Care to join me for some days on the prairie?

      Brad, sorry for the levity, but we take very few matters seriously around our house. Rest assured, however, that we use clean technique in handling all human waste.

      I can but dream of camping on the prairie, as my employment offers no sabbatical. I am sincerely looking at a sponsorship, however, and will contact you when I know more.
