"Wanted: Goat Checkers."

"Madison Parks is seeking volunteers to assist with daily goat checks. Goat checkers will ensure the goats and their area are in good condition, ideally each morning and after a storm."

A good comedic troupe could do a parody of a NSFW NiN song with the same syllabic rhythm.

Um, John Henry, how do you know having sex with a goat is a *benefit*?

That sounds like fun actually. If/when I retire would be a great activity.

Goat CHECKER, John Henry, Goat CHECKER.

I suspect Themis Matsoukas would need that clearly spelled out for him, though.

I'd like this. It would be a great addition to my busy retired guy schedule. If I lived in Madison.

Who wouldn't love to have added as a last item on their CV..."Goat Checker"?

Wishful thinking at this point.

To think of the beyond outrageous property taxes you (Ann & cohorts) pay in Madison, I would think should cover the cost of paid help to cover this municipal budget item.

I'd do that job. The side driveway of our office building borders the overgrown laydown yard of a tweaker muffler shop. A couple years ago they added a couple of goats to the yard. They're affable, and comic, animals who, despite their grim immediate surroundings, thrive on the food offerings and attention of the women in our building. Goat welfare isn't taken seriously enough.

We had a strong thunderstorm last night here in Austin that moved a patio umbrella from back yard to front, and left lawn chair cushions in the neighbor's yard. After that, goats would be easy.

How about a nice game of goat chess?

No, let's play goat global thermonuclear war.

I read that as "Goat Chuckers" and thought of dwarf bowling and then got very confused.

My immediate neighbors are two fields of goats, an unhappy cow, and a water tower.

You check the goats after storms to make sure they're still there. It only takes one tree to knock down a fence.

They're better neighbors than people or roosters, even if they do pee on their own faces.
