Now Where Did I Put That Red Headed Peirced Pregnant Goat ?

The national newspaper USA Today published an article defineing good ole midwestern values. There is only one way to this article justice, and that is to post it.

Nebraska Goat thief sought
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Missing: Two purple car doors and eight possibly pregnant South African goats.

Two unhappy owners reported the unusual thefts to officials this week. The owner of the eight South African boer goats told sheriff's deputies the animals were taken from a corral north of Lincoln sometime between Nov. 7 and Monday.

The $200 goats are brown and white and have red heads, an incident report said. Their left ears are pierced, there are red spray-paint spots on their rears and they may be pregnant.

Goat thievery is uncommon in Lancaster County, sheriff's Sgt. Andy Stebbing said.

Not so the theft of Honda Civic auto parts.

The people who stole the driver's side and passenger doors off Joe Ruterbories' purple Honda Civic "seemed to really know what they were doing," he said, when they unscrewed the hinges.

This was the second time someone stole pieces off his ride. The last thief opened the hood and stripped out the cold air intake system.

"Apparently the parts are not easy to find," Ruterbories said, who found that out when he called salvage yards about replacements.

My favorite line is the Sarge saying "goat thevery is uncommon in Lancaster County." Well, I should hope so sargeant stuffedpants.
Strangly, my first thought wasn't "why the heck are people stealing pregnent african goats" but "What honda civic part is hard to find?" It's a CIVIC. You show me a rare Honda civic part and I'll show you a red headed African perced spraypainted goat. Oh wait, where did I put those goats again?
