Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Christmukkah, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Oh, and 2005? Don't think we've forgotten about you.

'Tis the holiday season, so I felt I should share.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good goat.
Jessica! You and Ethan are all sorts of adorable on your card. (And a Kermit stamp!)
And thank you DX for your lovely card!
I love getting cards. Whee!
Me, I'd rather have cards than a goat. I want to leave my prostitution options open. Or something.
Hey, if I can rent my goat out, do I need to know the exact details of what you're going to do with it? I think not. Just return in one piece by suppertime, all I ask.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good goat.
Sounds like this goat's been naughty, though.
By the way, in case I forget or get bogged down...
MERRY XMAS BUFFISTAS!!
Thank you, Laura! I do love that picture.
Just return in one piece by suppertime, all I ask.
So ...no curry then?
You know, we could have a big holiday party here, and people could bring goats. My neighbours throw enough infuriating noisy parties to where they wouldn't have any right to bitch to the cops.

Just checked with Nic, and he doesn't remember it being heifer.org; he thinks it was another organisation.
There are a bunch of places that do this sort of thing. Mercy Corps does a goat kit (I really wanted to get a Soccer Kit for my brother -- imagine, funding a soccer team on the other side of the world! -- but it's $250). Also maybe Mother Earth Catalog? Something like that. I wish I could remember the name -- they had packages where you'd give a family a bunch of goats, and then you'd get a round of goat cheese once a year, so there was actually a little kickback from the goats, but they'd get to sell all the rest of what they made.

That's ringing a definite bell. Damn. Don't want to hunt through old tax records, nononono.....
I remember that photo they sent us very vividly indeed. The kid - a little boy, maybe eight - clearly happy as hell, grinning his head off, posing for the camera, with a seriously piss-off looking bundle of feathers in his arms. The kid was blissed; the bird was more "Put me down. Put me down now.
I would love a kickback from a goat. Mmmmm, chevre....
