This month someone is seeking a new home for their goats.

.

.

Nothing wrong with that… but the reason?

.

.

Now that’s a bit disturbing. If you have to re-home your goats because of rats? You might want to re-examine your current living conditions as well as your livestock’s.

.

.

Do you have a guy? We have a guy. I can’t tell you the name of our guy because then he would be your guy and wouldn’t have time to be ours.

.

.

Aww. I haven’t seen the lost pig, but if these people are really the owners…. shouldn’t they know the pig’s gender by now?

.

.

Okay, so not everyone is polite in our town.

.

.

Bunny! In all the years we’ve lived here we’ve never had a visiting bunny. And from the text of the announcement, it’s now abundantly clear why. We simply don’t have the right kind of weed.

It’s official, I can no longer be shocked.

I have a gift. It’s not a gift I wanted or asked for, but it’s mine all the same.

My gift?

It’s finding the most ludicrous news stories on the planet. … like this one.

.

.

No need to reach for your glasses, you read that correctly.

.

.

A vagina beauty contest? Of course a sex toy manufacturer came up with that. I would expect no less.

.

.

Modesty is so important. No one needs this trophy shoved in their face at a cocktail party.

.

.

There’s so much to unpack there, I can’t even…

.

.

There are factories full of stock vaginas? Why didn’t I know this!

.

.

Let that one sink in for a moment. 182 women voluntarily sent in pictures of their hoohaa… to be voted on.

😳

.

.

Talk about fear of not measuring up. And here I thought that was just men.

.

.

Modest, yes.

But come on…. if she didn’t think she could win, she wouldn’t have entered!

What passes for news in my little corner of the world might seem silly to some….

.

.

But I like to think of our Facebook page as the New York Times of happy living.

.

.

You’ll be glad to know this crisis was averted.

.

.

I’m not sure if this a thing in your area, but in Maine late spring means it’s time to thin and divide the perennials. Some people sell them in their front lawn, but more often than not the bounty is simply shared.

.

Go home Freyr. I don’t care how tasty the tuna is down the road.

.

.

That’s one fluffy little cock.

.

.

Damn. No one ever drops roosters off at our house.

The Great Goat Escape …. Update.

6 Comments

.

Sadly, the goat is still on the loose.

.

.

Updates are posted every few days on our town’s Facebook page.

.

.

It’s become a bit of a hoot.

.

.

Apparently this goat was given to the owners a few weeks ago and as soon as they opened the pen to transfer it to their yard… it ran off. They’ve tried putting out food, luring it with other goats and even set up a warm shelter near where it’s been spotted… but nothing works. It runs from everyone who tries to catch it.

.

.

In 2020, this is what passes for hard news in my town.

Ya gotta love it.

Sad backyard news.

I knew it would probably happen, but it doesn’t make it any easier to take.

.

.

Our little blue eyed Bambi is all alone now.

.

.

We haven’t seen his mother, the old always pregnant doe, for weeks. She was nearly skeletal the last time she visited and I think her poor old body just had enough.

.

.

I’m glad she taught the little guy this was a safe place for his daily nosh. I just hope he can hook up with the rest of the herd before the full brunt of winter sets in. There’s safety in numbers when you’re a little fella.

And I love their Facebook group page.

A moo disorder?

More likely the poster has a Budweiser disorder.

.

.

Okaaaay.

I’m not sure what Doug did to rate a shout out, but I’ll go with it.

.

.

Damn. All I have under my bed is dust bunnies… where’s the fun in that?

Here’s a random photo of ducks that were for sale at our local hardware store. I’m always tempted to bring home a few when the husband sends me up there for screws.

.

.

.

Now there’s a platform no one can argue with.

.

.

You do, you really do.

Does anyone know where I can score one of those beauties?

And what passes for local news on their Facebook page.

.

.

No, I don’t know what’s happening either. But turtles are involved so it must be good.

.

.

Goat shooing happens more often than you think here.

.

.

Now this is news!

While we do live in Maine, moose are more commonly seen up north. Having one stroll our river is a sure way to fire up the locals.

.

.

This is another type of wildlife sighting altogether. A traveling donkey who spends a few nights on your lawn by request. Made by a local artist, his name is Mr. H.

.

.

Goats are still on the loose.

Clearly their walkabout is causing concern.

.

.

But in happier news, the slandering chicken is back home on the drivay.

Perhaps if her owner learned how to spell she’d stay home more often.

Only in America

I read something the other day that literally made me snort.

It was a list of people’s thoughts on visiting the United States for the first time…. and what they found unusual.

Here are a few.

I dare you not to laugh.

Because really…

Sometimes you need more from 7/11 than a raspberry Slurpee.

Well, we do like to super size things.

Including our hips, thighs and waistlines.

That’s so true you don’t have to laugh.

Also true.

And before your uber patriotic fingers start typing hate mail… we’re a family of veterans, I love my country. But you have to admit, we are very in your face about it.

Ha!

They have a point there.
