GOT GOATS? |
In his presentation Thursday night, the GCR consultant made reference to the bounty of vegetation plaguing lots of Cairo, uh, many of Cairo's vacant lots.
He mentioned that some communities have turned to goats.
For your perusal...

CAT Tracks Editor's Note:
At our weekly retirement luncheon yesterday, I proffered the grazing goats as food for thought...
...offering that I might supplement my pension (replace if Illinois politicians have their way!) by incorporating "Ron's Rent-A-Goat".
Well, my dining companions laughed at the absurdity of my venture.
Ahem, ladies...
From RentAGoat
I liked the idea that a goat is a "grass guzzler" rather than a "gas guzzler".
One concern did cross my mind...
...that with the bounty available throughout Cairo, our lean, mean, eating machines would soon eat themselves to death.
But, hey, once our grass guzzlers are properly fattened...
...goat, it's what's for dinner!

REMINDER:
Today is the day that GCR is asking volunteers interested in participating in a "Cairo land survey" to report to the Cairo Public Library...at 9 a.m.
