*wonders what would be an appropriate wedding gift for the lovely couples*

Clearly the culprits got the owner's goat, but there is precedent.

*snork* at CJ
"One of the young men was naked and holding the goat's head, and the other was having sex with the animal," witness Mario Creva told Radio Mozambique.
He added, "not that there's anything wrong with that."
No, not really, but that would have been great.

As long as they did the right thing in the end. Which is how things got started, actually.

"The happy couple is registered at Sheepman Supply and plan to honeymoon on Brokeback Mountain."

Hmm. "..simple larceny" obviously doesn't mean what I had always assumed.

Ah ha, it's all about the dowry. Whatever happened to love?

We can only hope that it wasn't a 'really' ugly sheep.

The irony is that lobola is traditionally a few head of cattle. The more desirable the bride the more cattle she'll fetch.

Engaged in a bit of "simple larceny," have you, Mot?
Posted by: CJrun | February 28, 2010 at 03:27 PM
Sheep happens.

Reminds me of college.

I hope the caterer doesn't screw up and serve lamb chops or cabrito at the reception. That could really put a damper on the whole thing. *SMACKS* CJ. Mot is a gentleman.

Why thank ye kindly miss Cindy. *Tips imaginary headgear*

Ah, a classic there, CJ.
The Aggies at A&M have just come up with a new use for sheep -- wool!
