G.O.A.T. (go-at) Grain Operated Anti Tree

Thu Jan 26, 2012 12:29 PM EST

On a blizzardy January night in 2001, friends called to tell us they had a little baby Nubian goat for us. His mother was a champion dairy show goat, so she wasn't permitted to nurse her kids. Apparently it makes her teats look funny if she nurses.

I love your way of thinking!!!!! I am with you 100%! Hondurus is their own country and their people can elect and kick out who they choose. I hope and pray America wakes up to do the same.
