I haven't seen any trolls lately. You been on those magic mushrooms again Lumpy? :)
As for being old, grumpy and cynical. I've been like that for years mate. It makes life much more interesting. You get to wave your walking stick at youngsters in the street and say things like..."eh Lad, back in my day...."

In that case, I've seen some troll ish posts, but I haven't really thought I'd define any regulars as 'trolls', as in that was their defining characteristic. Some of us do have our contumacious side. And maybe some are only moved to comment when they disagree or there's something that really gets under their skin. There are members I'm careful not to engage in discussion because I know what they will say and they'll say it at length and not be content until someone is humiliated. It's tempting to take them to task, but then again it's not, because the result is a waste of good energy and generation of a lot of bad vibe. And by and large these cats actually have a lot of good info to share. As long as you don't get them started, they're cool. I can't think of anyone on here who is just a full-time dedicated prick. Not even me. ----------
I hope that having strong opinions, being a little argumentative, outspoken, and compulsive when it comes to topics that evoke my personal emotional response doesn't classify me as a troll.
I used to have a goat. He was a mean kind of guy at times, especially when he ate those windfall apples. Got mauled by a Rottweiler and had to be destroyed. Any dog could have done it I guess...well, not ANY dog, but many. I liked my goat, despite his meanness, he was a character. And strong. I used to tether him to weights to slow him down. Had to keep increasing thd weight as he adapted to it. I believe goats have been successfully used to pull wagons. I've not seen it, but I'd believe it. This guy could tow quite a payload around at high speed. ----------
I owned a beautiful one owner 1967 Electra deuce and quarter in the 70's. I was visiting a friend's farm.
Sitting in the living room enjoying our favorite herb and a beer, looked out the window to see, "Billy" standing on the roof of my car chewing a piece of vinyl roof. I hated that goat.
One of my Mexican friends like to BBQ goats. The only good goat is a BBQ'd goat, is Pepe's motto.

Yeah they are pretty irritating creatures. Mine ate my shirt one day, while I was wearing it. Another time he broke the chain he was tethered with, and ran off. Before he went though, he ate every plant in my little veggie patch.
I think it's way past time this thread was locked. Any discussion of (coughs) must be in violation of the forum creed. I'm sure it says that... ----------
