I can't believe I wasted my time last Sunday at church and at the ballpark when I could have been in Pennsylvania Furnace, Pennsylvania, attending the 2010 Manure Expo. I can't day that I've ever given much thought to manure, but I'll bet if I'd attended the expo, I would have learned a lot of really interesting things about it.
