80 acre former dairy farm: $300K
Herd of goats: $400 plus some years of breeding.
Custom-made Adirondack glider to relax in: $500

Realization that all you've done is build a goat spa and you're staff: Priceless

LMAO, I couldn't stop laughing. And the goats look so...dumb. Well, WHO is the smart one here, eh? :)

I bet that the hair on that goat is worth more than the porch glider, but in any case, don't piss off the goat....those horns look to be needle-sharp...

Looks like the critters got your goat, Armorer.

Oh, life at the Castle ain't just cleanin' out moats,
Ya gotta make sure there's a glider for the goats.
The slats can't be rough or they'll snag their goaty coats,
Thank Gawd we don't raise elephoats...

Thank you. Thank you very much. Now, a little tune I wrote for Bruce Springsteen, titled, "Filed With The FAA"...

Well, Beth did inform me that you shouldn't pet the goats on their heads, as that is pretty much an invitation to butt you....

I used to pet my goats on their heads to remind them who was in charge. My brother didn't, and they pounded him regularly.

Been threatening to get a goat for years.  Husband threatening to Bar-B-Que said goat about an equal number of years.  So last Christmas was cleaning out the baking cupboard as the fruitbread & stollen season was upon us and tossed some brown apricots (no preservatives) out for the birds.

Husband comes home.  "Honey, did you buy a goat today?"
Me: "What?"
Him: "A goat.  Did you buy a goat today?"
Me: "No!  What makes you think I bought a goat?!?"

well, the birds hadn't eaten the dried apricots yet and he though it looked like goat scat ...

oh well ...
