When It Hits the Fan
Despite my chosen title, this isn't about healthcare (At least for those outside the potential blast radius). This is an article about a significant volume of crap generated outside of Washington, DC.
This quote makes the entire article worthwhile:Democratic Rep. Hank Johnson of Georgia is watching the situation closely, worrying that if the bubbles in the hog lagoon get too large, Indiana could tip over.
Last year, a hog farmer in Hayfield, Minn., was launched 40 feet into the air in an explosion caused by methane gas from a manure pit on his farm. He sustained burns and singed hair.

Just watched that pinnacle of the evolutionary process, Hank Johnson, on You Tube. I wonder why our country is in such a mess...

Johnson, by reports, has hepatitis-C which appears to have affected his mental capacity. Which leads to the question: Why haven't his fellow Democrats prevailed on him to take medical retirement? It's not as if the Fourth Congressional District -- Cynthia McKinney's district -- is about to elect a Republican.

Johnson is sharing an old joke with an old friend in that clip. Look around. I think American Digest has the context.
