Frazz by Jef Mallett for July 25, 2011

Meadow muffins.

Dog poopCat droppingsCow manureHorse manurePolitical manureManure politiciansPoliticians full of manure.Politicians talking manure.Notice how two words go together.

Is Jef testing us?Grampa used to say cursing was a sign of a weak vocabulary,but that may have just been masculine bovine excrement.Now scat.

A friend of mine, when in his cups, would sing this little ditty :

♫♪ Well it may be so, or it may be noBut it sounds so awful queerYou can spread your heifer dust on the farm,But your bull ███ won’t go here. ♫♪

The House of Representatives?

Justin Bieber’s career?

Network news.

Sarah Palin

Manure during the worst heat wave in 15 years? Well, at least no one is going to school, except for this little girl.

right wing and left wing extremists?

From http://historymoment.blogspot.com/2011/03/trumans-manure.html:Harold Truman made a speech at the Washington Garden Club. He praised the ladies for the good “manure” that used to fertilize the flowers. One of them asked Harry’s wife, Bess if she could make him stop using such a vulgar word as “manure”, especially since he was the President of the United States. She replied, “Heavens no. It took me 25 years to get him to say ‘manure.’”

but I’ll be you wish you had one tenth of one percent of the dough raked in by Justin Beiber’s career …..so far

I think Jef’s point is simply that there are hundreds of different words for manure, from crude to obscure to euphemistic. Manure for every occasion

“What’s brown and sounds like a bell?”

Dung!

Posters.

“I can say ‘ca-ca,’ I can say ‘doo-doo,’ I can say ‘excrement,’ I already done said ‘feces’ in another song, but I can’t say the word that rhymes with ‘fit.’ But those folks in the bar, they’re sayin’ the word. They’re all goin’ ‘fit! fit! fit! fit—!’ " —Mojo Nixon

Congress?

Better yet, government.

Wrong, kid! Dry manure has no offensive smell.

Now that’s just offal!

Holy organic matter Frazzman!

The word he wants to say is: SHaving Cream, be nice and clean. Shave everyday and you’ll always look keen.

I like the early ones where they refer to a lump of, well, you know, as a “doggie doot.”
