as far as that goes, it's a pretty great book title. It makes you curious.

3. Makes me think of Flea-baggers.
After looking at the pics of some of the women at their rallies I can understand how good goats could look.

5. Anyone remember the "most beautiful goat" competition last year?:



When I see ads for this movie, I keep thinking of this event-

7. I, too, am sick of goats' being treated as objects.
Specifically, as boobs.

8. I read that book years ago, it was really good
The title, for the book anyway, was completely apropos.

I have no idea about the movie, whether it follows the book closely or not.

Jon Ronson (the author) was also the guy who, after Stanley Kubrick died, got to rummage through his massive collection of "stuff" that he kept in custom boxes - I think it's called Kubrick's Boxes or something.
