I don’t think anyone’s yet mentioned the popular saying:

Is motion a special lubricating lotion or some other euphemism?

A slightly quaint and archaic expression for the product of a bowel movement, amigo.

I’ve got a plan for you **Hal.** Instead of hiding your ovine predilections, broadcast them to the world. Found a church where fondling etc. of sheep is made a sacrament similar to what those snake handling Christian sects do with poisonous snakes. You could call it the Church of the Imminent Ovine.

Everyone would be required to wear wool all the time. All congress between man and sheep would be sacred. The only sin would be culinary, cooking and eating lamb. Any other kind of eating would have to be between you and a consenting sheep (and is really none of our business.)

Hey, it worked for L. Ron Hubbard. You could indulge yourself and get wealthy too if you play this right.
