INTERVIEWER:  I suppose you don't just hold it? 
WILL DOCKERY:  No.  I let it out just like everybody else does.   
INTERVIEWER:  How? 
WILL DOCKERY:  Well, to pee, you just go out back and pee.   
INTERVIEWER:  How about to poop? 
WILL DOCKERY:  For that, you dig a hole.  Then you poop into the hole and cover it up.
