I wonder what the reaction would be if the headline were “Man allowed to marry goat”? After all, that describes the situation just as accurately. 🙂

I hear there’s a new dating service that matches interested parties with single goats. It’s called “It’s Just Grazing”.

Surely you meant, “Big-Game-ist?”

Ok…I’ll shut up now…

So _that’s_ what Jude Law’s been up to nowadays!

Get it? _Nanny_ Goat? Aww, throw me a bone here, people. It wasn’t _that_ b-a-a-a-ad

This case only sets a precedent for sex with nonhumans. Still troubling though.

“Damn! I want this car! Wait! I have it! Oh, Achmed, you genius!”

“Yes, elders. I walked into the garage to discover Achmed having sex with my new convertible.”

Newest Google ad, hot off the press - “Worried that your goat is cheating? For 2 chickens and a cow, we will track your goat to all the usual goat felching hangouts  
in your village. Hand-illustrated proof available, digital photo for additional fee.”

Secretly, the villagers snicker because he ended up with the _homely_ goat.

This lends a whole new meaning to _getting one’s goat_.

Next up on Oprah: Sudanese men, and the goats who love them.
