City Loses Kudzu-Eating Goat, To Bring In Guard Donkey
posted September 26, 2006

One of 30 kudzu-eating goats placed on the side of Missionary Ridge has perished.

City public works officials said the goat may have been killed by a dog or a coyote.

"We are doing a forensic examination," said Lee Norris, assistant administrator of public works, during an interview with Jeff Styles on Talk Radio, 102.3.

The city is leasing the goats from a contractor.

A concerned citizen called 311 Tuesday morning to report the downed goat.

Mr. Norris said, The contractor in charge of the goats will probably try to put a guard donkey in the area to protect the goats. Donkeys raised with goats become very protective of their flock and can ward off attacks from coyotes or stray dogs.

Chuck Norris hunts chupacabra for relaxation, but only ill-tempered mutant chupacabra with lasers on them.

Hmm, I always wanted to LEASE a goat.  Oh, owning one crossed my mind, but who wants all that responsibility?

El chupacabra's range is generally limited to places where there is a large Spanish speaking population.  Maybe it was bigfoot.

If you lease a goat, keep it away from your car.  They like to jump on top of them.

Oh no!  What calibre for ill-tempered mutant chupacabras?

Wasn't there a joke about how different nationalities raised their cows?  The Japanese were miniature but produced as much milk as full sized ones etc?

Where in the US do we not have a large Espanophone population?
