Company Makes Paper Out Of Wombat Poo

Creative Paper attracted worldwide interest for its paper made of kangaroo droppings in 2005. Well it's been four years and the best and brightest at Creative Paper haven't been sitting on their laurels. What's their great new idea? They have now launched a kind of paper made from wombat poo. Scat-obsessed Darren Simpson from Creative Paper says the paper is green or gold depending on the time of year the droppings are harvested. The wombat paper will be unveiled at an international paper conference in Burnie, Australia later this month.

Valentine's Day Cards: Imagine the Possibilities!

[linuxmeepster]

I'm going to make a fortune selling Valentine's Day cards made out of wombat poo paper. Imagine sending this beautiful poem:

Roses are red
Violets are blue
This card is made
Out of wombat poo

Instant success! Especially if you hand it to her and say, "this card reminded me of you".

I'll be sleeping on the couch tonight...

Finally, the world's various currencies can actually be worth the paper they're printed on.

Just the thing

For sending anniversary greeting to your ex! Accompanied, of course, by the obligatory dead flowers!

I have to know, why do you travel the world seeking out poo paper?

Maybe, but the wombat is an inherently funnier animal than any of those. In green technology, humor value counts for more than you might think. I hear the next project is kookaburra poo paper.

"Used for communication"???

FTA: "Mr Simpson says they are careful to use only scats from wombats in captivity, because animals in the wild use them for communication."

And now, apparently, they want humans to use their poop for communication. Clearly it's a conspiracy by wombats, trying to take over the media...
