Hanging out by the well...

Co-Worker: "He gets paid in goats?"
Me: "Yeah. He's working for his wife's father. I asked how much his father-in-law is paying him. He told me they live on the farm for free and last week he got about $500 worth of rabbits and cages and goats. Mostly goats."
Co-Worker: "Goats? They are paying him with livestock?"
Me: "Yep. So he says."
Co-Worker: "So, does Jacob's wife have a sister, or what?"


See! We have been paying attention in Sunday School!

Multi-culturalism isn't always as glamorous as it's made out to be, is it?!

Ha! Goats!

What made it true remarkable is that this guy is totally white bread! He's young, middle class, drug addicted and working for goats!

I am wondering if rabbit pellets and goat's milk might be ingredients in a good homemade methamphetamine receipe...?
