I hear 2J is thinking of getting a goat.
I just figure...it may be a long time before I get my bit of land. And after all, I have a pretty good size bit of land already (quarter acre). More than enough to keep a pygmy goat on...they don’t get much bigger than a laborador retriever.
Would make a good pet like a dog, but you can’t eat puppies.
Some do... I guess it depends how difficult it is to pronounce your name. I don't think most people eat pygmy goats either.
I read somewhere that they’re actually considered meat goats (as apposed to milk goats.)
I can’t remember where I read that though...
I’m still in the research and feasibility phase of this. It could get nixed. I am usually pretty good about researching things before I do them. Did you know I researched having a baby for three years before I had Matthew?
Heh heh! I’m not even kidding one bit.
Oh I don’t doubt you. :~)
And you weren’t even planning to eat him...
~chuckling~
We loved “Good Neighbors”! The snooty woman next door was always hilarious in her astonishment, then disgust, at the goings-on of her neighbors.
Yep, we do!
I’d have a really hard time eating pygmy goat. One of my best friends when I was growing up always had a couple of ‘em...they kind of used them as lawn mowers, but mostly they were pets. Fun little personalities, for the most part.
One was named Jedi, as a matter of fact... He was blind in one eye from birth, poor guy. It was blue and clouded over. Didn’t seem to bother him much, though.
Cat’s just don’t look right wet. :~)
Eeek!
Those eyes look like Gollum’s!
Heh...
It’s still raining in Iowa?
No rain here...
Whoohoo - those little coupon things are pretty cool. I took mine to radio shack. Not sure which place is best but I understand that the coupon doesn’t cover all the cost, most of it, but not all. It’s usually 10-20 bucks extra to the coupon. That’s okay, still more than I would have had without the coupons.
That was really cute, and I recognized all the fonts! Clare and Joseph loved it!
