Pay up, you old goat!

goat-cap-180.jpgBlog Guy, we’re raising money for charity. Should we hold a car wash?

Have you thought about a goat wash? You can do two at a time, as the photo below shows. Dirty goat owners would flock to you.

We live in an upscale suburban neighborhood. Most of the goats here are already clean.

Hmmm. A puma wash, then? A wolverine wash?

NO! All the animals are squeaky clean!

What about selling goat baseball caps? Look, there’s good money in goat services.

I don’t know why I even come here for advice. I’d be better off talking to goats!

Well if you do, then charge them for it!

Does he offer full service? Like, will he trim their goatees? (I’m sorry…. I’m so sorry…)

Hate to say it, but a guy washing goats seems far less strange than a goat wearing a Cubs cap.

Charlene, you mean because most goats are football fans?

Because most goats follow the Yankees. After all, they’re all Billy Martin fans.

True. And they catch foul balls with kid gloves…
