And there they go, cementing their rep for being one of the coolest gofast parts place on the planet, right up there with MAT. And MAT don't donate to the Heifer project.

I have recently developed a taste for goat. Hmmm. But really, this is the best form of charity, it keeps on giving.

How much beer? Was it just buzzed, or completely legless?

EDIT: FM's Heifer International thing is really cool. To get this back on topic and atone for the above comment, I've chipped in.

I don't think you need to apologize for the legless joke. Although you did cause me to disturb my coworkers.

We've managed to send 27 goats to needy families since we started this program, but we didn't get a press release out for a while...

back in the early 1980's some coworker college student and I were dreaming about our future and an older coworker heard him mention he was going buy an "old goat" when he got his high paying engineering job.

The old guy thought he was a total idiot........an old goat? for what?

My mother bought a goat for someone through Heifer as a Christmas present for me. Sounds odd, but she knows how I feel about goats.

Really, I think goats are absolutely hilarious. Especially when wearing a straw hat. Just try to picture that and not laugh.

You can't.



This goat isn't wearing a hat, but it should be.

And here I thought this was going to be a really useful alternate-lawnmower thread!

I did see mention of the actual topic on Jalopnik. Keith, you guys rock. I'm seriously thinking about buying a Miata just so I can do business with you guys.

Not surprised to hear about Flyin' Miata being great guys. Keith has always been helpful and nice on this board. If I ever get a Miata, FM will be the first place I contact.

Maybe you could buy some Miata parts & donate them to less fortunate owners, thereby still being able to gift a goat AND help a gearhead? :D
