A few weeks ago, I had been cleaning the stall that our cow and pigs use, and of course it was a lot of manure. I loaded it into barrels, threw them in the back of my van like I always do, and I was going to head off to the dump to empty the barrels as I always do.
I just barely pulled out of my driveway and I heard a grinding noise. The rear axle on my van broke. Well, that sucks. Time to get a new vehicle as this one is not worth fixing. So we purchased another vehicle and I am currently waiting on picking it up.
So we started wondering "What do we do with the busted van"? We decided to just call up a junkyard and have them tow it away and keep it. So I call up a place and this guy answers the phone, all groggy like he just woke up. The conversation went like this.
Guy: Hello
Me: Yeah, Hi. I have a broken down vehicle that I want to get rid of.
Guy: Make and model?
me: 2004 Dodge Caravan.
Guy: Where is it?
Me: At my residence in *******.
Guy: Ok. We can come and get it.
Me: Yeah, the only thing is, it's got a bunch of shit in the back.
The guy perks up a little bit, probably thinking I mean garbage.
Guy: Yeah, what kind of shit?
Me: Cow and pig.
Guy: Ok well I... WHAT?!? Cow and pig shit?!?!?
Me: Yup. It's in barrels. See I was on my way to the dump....
Guy: What are we going to do with that?
The guy is laughing his ass off at this point.
Guy: I've never gotten a call like this before. How are you going to get rid of it now?
Me: I don't know since I can't bring it to the dump anymore. Do you have a garden?
The guy can barely spit a word out because he is laughing so hard. My wife and I are cracking up. I had to tell the guy "Seriously, this is not a prank call".
In the end, he told me he can help use bring it all to the dump. Best phone call I have ever had.
