Last week, while test marketing my patented re-usable Kleenex with the local men of Schnauz Lodge #492, I saw this billboard:
Wow! A forty-two foot TV? Who doesn't want to win one of those? Mr. Nanny Goats and I have decided to enter this contest because if they're giving away one a day for a month, that's...that's...well you figure it out. In any case, it's a lot, so we're pretty much guaranteed to win.
The problem is, our place is too small, so yesterday we bought a warehouse down by the loading docks at the Port of Sacramento. Escrow on our new digs closes next week.
And just in time for the holidays! You know those Christmas tree places where you hunt down your own fir growing the forest? We're going to yank one out of the ground that's at least 300 years old and plant that sucker in our new front yard.
For the backyard, we'll install an Olympic-sized swimming pool and bid to host the next summer trials. We'll invite Michael Phelps over for tea and a swim. I'm sure we can depend on him to put in a good for us at the IOC.
You're probably wondering how we're going to decorate our not-so-humble abode. Easy - we'll festoon it with big things. Gigantic things. Guinness Book of World Record things.
We are so winning this TV.
Goat Link of the Day
Thanks to Kat of Poetikat for pointing me to this:
Hellooooooo Nurse!
Rhea of Texas World Tangle has more where that came from. And if you're still jonesing for goats, she posted more pics on Thursday here.
Texas World Tangle is not giving away 42-foot TVs, but she is hosting a giveaway for a stir-fry pan and jambalaya mix. Go here for more details. And hurry, the giveaway ends tonight (Friday).
