Hmmm… you got her goat whilst making a pun… sounds like you need to treat her with kid gloves. Now, what to do with the goat? You could settle down, get married, and raise a few kids. Might need to hire a nanny, though. ---

If it’s a male goat, set him up with the goat in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=124804). ---

Enter it in the race for governor – it can’t create a bigger stink than some of the candidates. Send it to New Jersey and tell them it’s a cat. Tell all our resident goat-felchers you’ve got a new friend for them. Send it over to the Rebel Doper Alliance to keep the elephant company. ---

Wait, when did an elephant join the Rebel Doper Alliance? I’m thinking I should begin to educate the goat, so that when mankind finally destroys itself, it can lead the other goats in a violent rebellion that results in a **Planet of the Goats**. Maybe they’ll make human pie, I dunno. ---

See, not only is the goat eating people’s posts, he’s **regurgitating** them into triples. ---

Hey **Res** , at least I know I can’t blame your goat for last Friday’s debacle of a _quadruple_-post that I made! That can solely be blamed on the slow state of the Internet that day, as my brother warned me just as I got on the computer. F\_X ---

Hey, it’s not **my** goat…it’s just been following me ever since I adversely possessed it. Maybe I could sell the goat on [E-bay](http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&query=goat). 😃 ---

Sell the goat on eBay?!? Surely not! How much do you think you’ll get for it, if you do? And if it’s truly been following you around, maybe you should try finding its rightful owner first before you go selling it on eBay. Sheesh. F\_X ---
