Mew and the Glasshanded Goats
A couple of youtubers today.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=vFGaJr2SYKM. Magnethe and Mads in-fight. They were going at each other a lot yesterday, I’m not sure why. Normally Magnethe just backs off because she knows Mads is stronger. But here she stands her ground. It’s also funny to see that she does that goat “jumping up” attack thing a lot. While Mads doesn’t. He does a half one and that’s it. You could speculate that it’s because he knows that he’s the strongest so he doesn’t have to try too hard to intimidate Magnethe. However, I lean towards the possibility that he’s just too big and heavy to be jumping around like that. Hehe.
http://youtube.com/watch?v=9CtL2f6D7XM. Letting Mads chew off of a stick of carrot. If you turn up the sound you should be able to hear his disgruntled groans when Magnethe gets too close. The really funny thing is watching Magnethe though. She knows she can’t come too close because Mads will chase her away. But she wants the carrot so bad! So she does that streeeetching her head thing, moving around as if she can somehow get a bite of carrot even though she’s too far away. Adorable. And I do manage to slip her the last bit of carrot, even though Mads tries his darndest to avoid it.
I love those silly goats.
Meanwhile, you could check out comments that I left for Jools. With several good youtube links for bootiful music.
Oops, I think you have to be Joolses friend to see the entry. So you probably can’t see the comments. Oh well. If you’re an LJ user then you should just add her cause she’s funnier than a comedian on crack after a weekend at comedy school. And if you’re not an LJ user, then don’t cry over spilled milk. Just go look for Mew videos on youtube.

Magnethe has a pretty white spot on her tummy. When our two goats butt heads, they really make a noise when their horns clash. Then they walk away shaking their heads.
Luis Lemmings – do you think your lizard pal is an iguana? In a town not too far from us this summer, there was a picture of an iguana about a foot and a half long. Poor critter, he probably got too big for his cage and was turned loose. He won’t survive around here with the cold winters.
Guess the iguanas in Florida are a big problem. People have turned them loose and they are thriving. They’re all over people’s yards and boat docks, in their gardens munching flowers and vegetables. People need to be more responsible about their pets.

Debster – I like to think of it as her Mathilde Spot. Since Mathilde was all white on the body. Nice to have a little patch of her mother there.
Sometimes I shake my head at humans. Maybe goats do too.
I can’t believe people just turn their pets loose. Even if I had a pet that I felt was getting too big or whatever. I still can’t imagine just.. flushing them. So to speak. I’m pretty sure Mads would turn me loose before I’d turn him loose. Hah. He wouldn’t be able to get rid of me.

On the other hand, maybe Luis Lemmings has a komodo dragon in his back yard. Did you hear about the one in a British zoo that had 5 baby komodos? The mama komodo had NEVER been around a male dragon ever. They can reproduce by parthogenisis. So you don’t neccessarily need two of them to get baby komodo dragons!
No, I don’t think Mads would let go of you Plume. He luvs his Plume!

Debster – Yes, I saw that story. It is quite a virgin birth. Unless she had a secret komodo lover stashes around somewhere. You never know!
