Hello!

History......

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%A4vle_goat

Liked this part:

"
The Goat Committee says that this year's goat is not going to be able to be set on fire because it is fireproofed with "Fiber ProTector Fireproof", a fireproofing substance that is used in airplanes
"

We'll see.......

Thanks!

John

Hello!

Spotted this link today - bit more info about the fireproofing:

Last years goat fell when a pair of men appeared from nowhere - dressed as Santa Clause and the Gingerbread Man - fired flaming arrows into the goat and vanished into the night...........

Have Fun!

John

Hello!

I am asleep at the wheel here! Not so much asleep as chained to my bench trying to get all this new stuff done.....

Thanks so much for posting the new links - made my day! A few weeks back I had a quick search but did not spot the 2007 Goat.

Why this strikes me as so funny I can't say but I can't look at it without cracking up. It falls deeply into the realm of 'why'.......

Merry Christmas to all out there!

Thansk!

John
