I wouldn’t worry about these “vigilantes”. Sounds like they had a little too much to drink.

This is one of those posts that warrants a picture or two. We were wondering what kind of goat -- a Boer, Alpine, Kiko, Myotonic, Nubian? It might be important evidence.

The old transform-yourself-into-a-goat trick. So simple, so predictable, yet it always seems to work, that’s the frustrating thing.

“Was it on the lamb?”


Only the suspect’s Nigerian goatmail account was.

The police got right on the case so it was quickly muttoned up, I herd. Besides, everyone knows that a real goat would have eaten the newspaper.
