    What is the worst job you have to do in the house?

    Normally, I would have said toilet scrubbing, but I just had to scrub and scour our stupid propane grill for the spring. Besides busting and abrading my knuckles, I'm covered from head to toe with little black grease spots. I look like a 1/2 gallon of Hersey's Cookies and Cream ice cream.

    Cat litter box. With four cats in the house I spend at least 10 minutes a day cleaning it. Second would be bathrooms.

    That's about the easiest thing we have to do. We have a rolling litter box. Just close it up, roll it and the shit ends up in a removable tray. No mess and easy.

    The worst I have to do is remove a rotting deer carcass from the back lawn.

    You guys don't have self cleaning ovens? A little oven cleaner spray, then kick the oven up to +500 degrees F and everything is a little pile of cinders to be wiped up at the bottom of the oven.

    OK Kelli, you might have me with the cat Litter box, but I never had cats. I do have to clean up the dog poo from the yard before mowing. That is just to keep the ol' joke about "Who flung Poo!" from becoming reality. The wife hates it when she finds dog excrement in places it shouldn't be.

    .
    Our gas over has a self clean function. Basically it heatsd up to a very high temp and burns away the baked on crap to ash. But one problem. The self clean cycle is very hard on the glowbar igniters. Twice I had to change them after running the clean cycle.

    Old oven, but one that works very nice, hate it to use chemicals in cooking ware, so i do it the hard way with scalding hot water, wirebrush, etc.
    Takes 10 minutes to do.

    An autopsy on an 800 pound hog that had been out in the August sun for 5 days. It was like popping the Hindenburg, only with smell. Oh, shit that was terrible.

    OK Quincy. You win, end of discussion. But why??? Even us rednecks in Virginia know to grab roadkill within a day so it still tastes good.
