NOT A `PRIVY' SIGHT: MAN DIGS UP OLD TOILETS

YPSILANTI, Mich. (Wireless Flash) -- A Michigan man has a hobby that stinks: he looks for old relics in ancient outhouses. Self-proclaimed "privy digger" Scott Colf spends almost every weekend unearthing booty he finds in the underground remains of old privies and toilets. The 31-year-old says a typical potty site yields around 50 antique collectible bottles -- but he once unearthed more than 200 from an outhouse in Detroit. Colf claims his bizarre hobby isn't as crappy as you might think -- mostly because he only dives into toilet sites that are over 100 years old. By that time, the poo has decomposed into harmless matter except for any seeds consumed by the ancient potty users.
