For Sale or Trade: Manure Spreader

YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT INTERESTED IN USED FARM EQUIPMENT,

BUT YOU MIGHT ENJOY THIS AD TAKEN FROM CRAIG'S LIST.

Fifty-year old manure spreader. Not sure of brand. Said to have been produced in Kenya. Used for a few years in Indonesia before being smuggled into the US via Hawaii. Of questionable pedigree. Does not appear to have ever been worked hard. Apparently, it was pampered by various owners over the years. It doesn't work very often, but when it does it can sling crap for amazing distances. I am hoping to retire the manure spreader this November. I really don't want it hanging around getting in the way. I would prefer a foreign buyer to relocate the manure spreader out of the country. I would be willing to trade it for a nicely framed copy of the United States Constitution.

Location: Currently being stored in a big white warehouse in Washington, D.C.
