Anyone know if the goat and the squid were properly converted from vBulletin format? Have they been tested? Anybody bring a straw? ---

And we don’t talk about what happens to the goat (or think about it, if we can avoid doing so). Nothing happens to the goat. The goat happens to you. As does Mariah. Most people mercifully blank out on what occurs in the room where it happens. ---

Got it. Avoid Mariah and going into a room with a goat. ---

If Beck starts talking about Big Foot pranks, back slowly out of the room. Unless you like conspiracy theories. ~VOW ---
