Well, some folk say that the Devil takes the form of a goat, or is it the other way round...?
On the other hand, nobody would go see a movie called "Goatnado." Well, I would, but you can't build a major release on that.
Get a lot of shark attack victims in Springfield, do you?The hysteria in the media over shark attacks (five times more people are killed by cows annually)...

But seriously, I think shark attacks get more publicity simply because there are fewer of them. Cow and farm equipment related injuries are apparently rather common, so it's harder for the press to sensationalize them.
A goat? I've seen: "Bedazzled," and believe you me, Liz Hurley doesn't look a bit like a goat.Well, some folk say that the Devil takes the form of a goat, or is it the other way round...?
The excitement level correlates to which side of the gate you're on.I don't think it has to do with the numbers. Cow attacks are not exciting. hahahahahahaaaaaaa
This is one of the things I hated about "kids" shows even when I was a kid. Most of them in one way or another talked down to kids instead of speaking to them, and I felt I was being insulted.
Sounds like a lot of programmes for grownups nowadays!
This has been bugging me for a while now and that is what utter slobs people are and I'm far from being OCD!
I have a dealer space at an antique mall and every time I go there people leave it a total mess - - even more so than some of the other dealer spaces I might add. How hard is it to put something back right where it was??? I do that when I'm looking around over there. I don't know how many times I was elated thinking that something had sold only to find that it was merely moved.
I can't be there every day to keep everything straightened out but it looks like I might have to now.

You would think so. In the supermarket you see someone's potential purchase of a pack of sausages, that they have changed their mind about buying, but now they are in the bakery section, so the sausages get put back amongst the donuts. These are the same people who abandon their empty shopping cart in the middle of the car park."Oh don't worry about it, Camomile -- the help will clean that up. That's what they PAY them for. Ha ha ha."
This couldn't be more trivial, but it still irks me: There's a guy in my office who never lets the microwave oven count down to zero. He always stops it with seconds left, removes his food and leaves the display showing the remaining seconds rather than the time of day.

I'm exactly the same. I work as a volunteer in a thrift store and deal with the book section there. While I'm not OCD (though I am very tidy, which I blame on living in Germany for seven years ) I also have issues with folk coming in to look at books, pulling them out and leaving them all over the place, or in the wrong order, or putting them back upside down. Really, there is nothing quite as bad as the general public....!!
