"An interesting fact about Manu In the 16th and 17th centuries,
everything had to be transported by ship, and it was also before the
invention of commercial fertilizers, so large shipments of manure were
quite common. It was shipped dry, because in dry form, it weighed a lot
less than when wet. But once water (at sea) hit it, not only did it
become heavier, but the process of fermentation began again, of which a
by product is methane gas of course. Since the stuff was stored below
decks in bundles, you can see what could (and did) happen. Methane began
to build up below decks, and the first time someone came below at night
with a lantern -- BOOM! Several ships were destroyed in this manner
before it was determined just what was happening. After that, the
bundles of manure were always stamped with 'Stow high in transit' on
them, which meant for the sailors to stow it high enough off the lower
decks so that any water that came into the hold would not touch this
volatile cargo and start the production of methane.

"This evolved the term 'S.H.I.T.', (Stow High In Transit) which has come
down through the centuries and is in use to this very day. You probably
did not know the true history of this word."

Here's the real bull**** story:

A young man with his pants hanging half off his ass, two gold front teeth, and a half inch thick
gold chain around his neck; walked into the local welfare office to pick up his check.
He marched up to the counter and said, "Hi. You know,
I just HATE drawing welfare. I'd really rather have a job.
I don't like taking advantage of the System, getting something for nothing."
The social worker behind the counter said "Your timing is excellent.
We Just got a job opening from a very wealthy old man who wants
A chauffeur and bodyguard for his beautiful daughter.
You'll have to drive around in his 2012 Mercedes-Benz CL,
And he will supply all of your clothes."
"Because of the long hours, meals will be provided.
You'll also be expected to escort the daughter on her overseas holiday trips.
This is rather awkward to say, but you will also have, as part of your job,
The assignment to satisfy her sexual urges as the daughter is in her mid-20's
And has a rather strong sex drive."
The guy, just plain wide-eyed, said, "You're bull****tin' me!"
The social worker said, "Yeah, well... You started it." .....

Herring is just seething with hatred for minorities of color, and his
anecdote is all the proof you need.

No, he's not a right-winger. What's funny is that my mother was a
lifelong Republican, but when Reagan ascended to the presidency and
served most of his first term, she became an independent and never voted
Republican again. My father was apolitical.
