14 Mar 05 - 04:13 AM (#1434175) Subject: RE: Goat From: GUEST,Mingulay at work In the English tradition the goat is "Roasted" from both ends at once (so I have heard). This, apparently, stems from naval custom and practice but is now more prevalent in certain scholastic establishments located within the Thames valley, there is also talk of Royal Households being involved. I am at a loss to understand what is done with the 'un' roasted central portion of the goat. Perhaps someone out there is in the know. |

Nubians are measured as if wing span, Alpine's ears stick straight up and La mancha are like little flap of skin like a seal or sea lion. theri horns are warm because there is blood flowing inside them, not like antlers which fall off each year. ok that's enough goat lore. i used to milk 22 goats each day for a neighbor. She had to work to make money to feed them, and then had to hire someone to milk them also...she worked cooking for fir fighting crews. baaaaaaaaaaaaaa trip trap trip trap |

15 Mar 05 - 05:15 PM (#1435561) Subject: RE: Goat From: Ebbie The only goat that smells as far as I know is the billy. I don't know what makes HIM smell so bad and I'm afraid to ask. Nannies and wethers (neutered males) sre fine, smellwise. I used to have an Angora wether and he helped me clear my land. I broke over the slim branches of thorntree saplings that I was going to dig out and he was in (goat) heaven. Angoras and some others are browsers while milk (milch) goats are grazers. |
15 Mar 05 - 05:31 PM (#1435569) Subject: RE: Goat From: Azizi Well Troll, the last Billy Goat Gruff made sure that no troll remained under THAT bridge. And the memory of what happened there that day lives on in folks' memory that no troll would ever think of setting up house anywhere near that place. So I don't blame you for hiding out in a cave. I mean, present company excepted I'm sure, trolls aren't known for being the nicest people on the block... But if you are really a reformed Troll, maybe you need to see if someone would make a hit movie that will improve your folks' image like was done for that green ogre Shrek. And, btw Troll, some people would see you feastin on goats' meat as being retaliation for what happened under that bridge long ago.. but, hey, I'm sure that thought never crossed your mind. :O) |

I didn't even know he had come out of his room and I cannot imagine what he told the Governor to convince him to commute Freddies sentence, but.... I mean I really think that Ten years for jaywalking was a bit severe. Anyhoo, The Other Guy has gone back into his room and locked the door and, while I'm grateful for what he did for Freddy, I'm just as happy that he didn't stick around. Just between you and me, he scares me sometimes. Azizi, I am NOT reformed nor am I hiding out in a cave from anyone. Bridges, culverts, etc are cold and damp. I happen to prefer a nice warm, dry cave, that's all. As far as eating goat, meats meat. What I REALLY like is the curry. troll BTW, that's "troll" with a lower case "t".

And if he is real, "my bad" for that too.. **** Editorial comment: Being new around here has its disadvantages since some times references are made that seem incomprehensible.
