NEIGHBOR OF THE WEEK SO FAR
(Thanks to Esther, who says, "I am also from Apex “the Peak of Good Living” here in NC. I have noticed the dilapidated state of this house many times, but never in my wildest dreams could I imagine that he had 80 sheep living with him – eighty!!!…not in the yard, mind you, but in the downstairs of the house!!!")
Anyone find any orange spray paint?

Moment of seriousness:/
"Some had severe hoof rot, paralyzed limbs and prolapsed uteruses, in which a ewe's reproductive organs hang outside the body after it has given birth, Williams said."
This is so sad. Why won't people take care of things they just have to have? Animals, children, spouses...?

"As many as 30 healthy sheep could be available for adoption, officials said."
errr...isn't that just going to spread the problem to other neighbourhoods?

Yeah, I bet he started with 2 ten years ago!!! The original article I sent in (which presumably wasn't linked because you need to register to view it) stated that he actually considered the sheep more like "roommates" than pets...in that case, this makes that pothead slob of a roommate I had in college look better and better...
