I am sick and tired of stepping out each morning to retrieve my newspaper and that unmistakable squishing sensation underfoot triggers instant resentment. The mess, the stench, the indignity. Some dog owners here are pigs.

I wish the day comes soon when The Villages enacts a rule that requires residents to submit DNA samples of their dogs in order to build a DNA library and this information will be used to track-down unproperly discarded dog waste and fine the dog owners. Dog poop DNA testing is entirely legal in the US and attaching a financial incentive not to improperly discard fecal matter has worked in Europe for years.


Dear OP,

Because of your deep interest in this topic, I would like to recommend a book I think you might enjoy reading. Perhaps, when you finish it, you will enlighten us by writing a review here on TOTV. I think you can buy this book from Amazon or maybe a library will have it.

Speaking of libraries — about that one you suggest be established — to run said library, what degree would be required? MLS? MLIS? Or maybe a PhD? That’s it! A PhD because everybody knows PhD stands for “Piled Higher and Deeper.”

I have not read the book I am recommending, but I have been hearing about it for many years. The book is titled The Origin of the Feces. The author is Charles Darwin.


You’re welcome,
Marian Boomer
