Goats Revolt

Jul 16, 2020,09:35 AM
 

About 200 goats broke through a fence in San Jose and briefly stormed the streets of a residential neighborhood on Tuesday evening, in clear violation of social distancing guidelines as well as the state shelter-in-place order. The goats had been coming by to eat through the vegetation on a hill in the neighborhood for the past 12 years, Zach Roelands, 23, a neighborhood resident who captured the madness on video, said. They had been hopping on his neighbor’s fence, which created a hole. “Next thing you know they’re in the front yard eating everything in sight,” Roelands said. In the video, some goats paused to pull up plants and flowers from nearby yards before following the rest of the herd, much to the chagrin of residents. Neighbors were panicked at first, trying to keep the goats away from their landscaping, but then mostly amused, Roelands said. “The goats have come for the past 12 years but this was the most entertaining they’ve been,” he said. The goats were rounded up and under control within minutes but “everyone had to spend the next hour or so picking up their poop”, Roelands said.

The robot takes so long that the beverage doesn't stay cold! Need more ice cubes!

Those are so cool

on my YT where you can see 2 MB's so I believe it was that clip you refer to.

Oh! No! That'd just lead to fighting. I'm super detailed about my car washings...

I've gone to seminars instructing professional detailers how to wash cars. I generally wash my cars myself because I'm quite particular.

It makes its round every day for an hour.

The clippings are so small they will act as fertilizer.

Ahh. Got it. [nt]
