In a repeat of a similar incident two years ago, a dead goat was found at Wrigley field. Presumably the goat was a reference to the Billy Goat curse, put on the Cubs in 1945 by Billy Goat tavern owner William Sianis after the team refused to allow his pet goat, Murphy, inside Wrigley Field for Game 4 of the World Series. The Cubs haven't won a World Series since 1908. picked by suebe 7 months ago

Mine is the tale of the recent convert. Admittedly, I’m late to the party: goat is the most widely consumed meat in the world, a staple of, among others, Mexican, Indian, Greek and southern Italian cuisines. Moreover, it’s been edging its way into yuppier climes for a year or so now, click-clacking its cloven hooves up and down the coasts and to places like Houston and Des Moines. picked by kakana 7 months ago
