You guys in West Virginia are lucky. My crack dealer won't take pygmy goat meat, just cash.

Police said Albright told them he intended to get money or drugs for the goat, but got neither.

Wah, wah, wah, waaaaaaah.

You can butcher goats in WV? Or did they not kill it quickly enough? What makes this animal cruelty as opposed to someone who butcher's their cows?
Cause it's a pet maybe?

They started with the sheep-for-coke plan, but it turned out to be a baaaaaa-d idea.

Idiots. Everyone knows Llama meat is worth more pound-per-pound than goat meat.

They killed the goat? That's harsh. Why didn't they just pimp the goat for crack?

There's another thread today about a butcher trying to trade a chicken for sex. Are we in some kind of meat oversupply?

This happened in Pennsylvania, thank you very much. West Virginians get bad enough press as it is.

It's frustrating because you have to compete with the meth dealers who do accept goat meat.

Doh! Oh well my post was riddled with spelling and grammar mistakes. We might as well toss in factual mistakes ;)
