This story is appalling

- A family put a goat up for adoption in a state fair in which the purpose is using the purchased animals for meat
- The child of the family putting the goat up for auction become attached to the goat and so the family tried to pull the goat out
- The auction went ahead anyway
- The family contacted the person who won the auction and struck an agreement with them to buy back the goat
- The fair took action to make sure the goat was obtained and put to slaughter. They did not do this representing the auction winner, but for their own purpose. Again, the auction winner was fine with the girl getting her pet goat back. Their reasoning for doing this was because children need to be taught lessons.
- They got the goat back after pursuing criminal charges with the cops executing a search warrant to obtain it.
Think I remember reading about this previously or is this another accurance? Only in 'merica.
Go to the map for this and open up Street View.
Poor man seems to have lost his legs on his tour of Anfield. I hope the boys at least send him a signed card.
I don’t know whether to find this disturbing or see it as avant-garde?
… Yeah, looks bizarre, but where are the Seagulls… :0)
what a great little house!! and so cheap, why is it so cheap?
It’s near Anfield and that’s not a desirable place to live in Liverpool. Plus, you may notice that it’s directly next to a pub. In fact, I think it adjoins the pub, and that pub is really busy on match days.
it’s next to a hostel that has a bar downstairs. On Anfield Rd but close to Stanley Park. it actually looks quite nice but I can see it not being suitable for some folks. that’s awfully cheap for a 4bed home though. Maybe the King Harry Hotel will buy it and knock down a wall or two for more rooms.
directly across the road from the Salah mural
Don’t be misled by ‘Hotel’. It’s just a pub. Lots of pubs in the UK are named the something or other hotel, but they’ve never had any paying guests.
Edit: Except for this one so it seems! I daresay the hostel doesn’t have any guests outside of matchdays.

Simas Snežko built a mechanical model of a car out of wood. And it’s not just some pistons moving up and down in a drilled-out block of wood—the model is a V8 with a working transmission, a differential and a clutch.
Did you hear about the fella that built a wooden car?
Wooden chassis,
Wooden wheels,
Wooden body,
Wooden engine…
He turned the key and it ‘wooden’ go.
I’ll see myself out.
Brilliant!
But surely would be more at home in the joke thread
True, but it was too good an opportunity to miss. I’ll copy and paste it to the joke thread.
Thanks.
