Thus, it should come as no surprise that I have a few turds in my office. One of them is a very real looking plastic intestinal sculpture I reserve for the truly fresh, stupid consultant reports. And another is a coprolite, which I use for the unoriginal stupid reports. Most people have no idea what it is, until I point out that it's a fossilized dinosaur turd. You can clearly see the intestinal ripples in the cross section... Working for a water and sewer company, one must maintain a sense of humor.
