    I agree.

    It's much harder to sneak up on a goat.

    Im the one who writes down the good quotes for our groups, too. I keep about 5 index cards handy during the game, and scribble the good quotes down as they occur.

    All thanks to this thread!

    Now.....why do say that sheep stay up late thinking of ways to die?!?

    Because they DO! My grandfather briefly kept sheep, and there was on ram that darn near burned his nose off on an electric fence because he was too dumb to stop prodding it with his face. All night long. *Zap* Sheep with a surprised look. Prods the fence again. *Zap* Sheep with a surprised look. Prods the fence again. *Zap* (Repeat ad nauseum) How dumb to you have to be to zap yourself in the nose with an electric fence several hundred (perhaps thousand) times in one night.

    Yeah, what other species out there regularly does things that could kill it and result in general harm, for no good reason?

    I shared a house with a couple idiots. I had bought a dryer very cheap, but it had a grounding problem and you'd get shocked if you touched certain parts of it. One day I'm in the living room and one of the idiots does his laundry. When it comes time for the dryer, I start hearing "bzzt. ouch!", pause, repeat. For about 10 minutes before I walked over and explained the problem.

    It was a loose wire that I fixed later on.

    Sorry, it just amazes me the frequency with which people think the occasional shock from everyday items is nifty instead a warning that death is near. Didn't this just recently happen with showers in Iraq as well? The previously mentioned half hour kind of made me touchy on the subject. My apologies for the sidebar.
