Billygoat eats TNT. That a problem?

If it went off, you could describe the sudden lack of a male bovine as noble.

Silly me, I just thought it was a reference to having bullshit everywhere.

Which of course, is what all the best SDMB threads have. :wink:

Or feed him beans along with said TNT.

I guess banging the goat on Saturday night is out of the question!

There’s more than a chance. As someone upthread pointed out, nitro is a potent vasodilator with a very quick onset of action and it is absorbed through the mucus membranes of the mouth, no matter what your species. That goat’s going to drop dead of low blood pressure, and possibly start hemorrhaging on Uncle Andy’s petunias, before the stuff even reaches his *first *stomach, even if he manages to chew politely with his mouth closed and not set off the kaboom.

Could you imagine if it was eaten by a smaller animal like a rooster? Why, he’d be launched from here, all the way to…Bangkok! Of course, if the females ate it, they’d immediately become kung pow chicken.

Or what if a baby bear ate it? You could name him Cub Louie!

I could go all day, folks. And the goat could go any day.

Seems as good a time as any to mention my favorite cowboy joke.


A cowboy told his grandson the secret to a long life. He said, “You gotta sprinkle a little gunpowder on your oatmeal, see. If you do, you’ll live to a nice ripe old age.” So the grandson did this religiously every day, and sure enough, lived to the nice ripe old age of 96.

When he died he left behind 4 children, 8 grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren

…and a 16 foot hole in the wall of the crematorium.

That was me, among others! I was playing “what if”. As in, what if the absorbant holds the NG well enough that it can swallow a stick of dynamite without absorbing a lethal dose? Which if MachineElf is correct, is around 8g for humans.

The EGDN used as an antifreeze may be an even stronger vasodilator than NG.

Anyone got a goat they don’t need?

Obligatory link to a classic thread:

Do they make PVC big enough to launch a goat out of?

You would have … Kid Dyn-o-mite!
