The goat or living with moslems
Just like to relate a tale from Jakarta
Last month there was a muslim festival involving the slaughtering of goats.
There is this expat married to a local girl, when he gets home from work one evening he finds a goat tied up outside his house, and quite a friendly goat at that. When he asked his wife what was going on and she informed him the unlucky fellow was to have its throat cut the following morning. He was not overly happy about this and was affected by the plight of his new friend, so, he gave him a feed and went to the pub. He mentioned this to the lads and it was decided to get a bucket and place the dregs of the beer in the bucket and give it to the goat. He went home, wandered out to where the goat was and placed the bucket of booze in front of him. The goat took a swig, had a bleat and wagged his tail. The bloke thought this was okay and went to bed. He was awakened next morning by an extremely angry wife. The religious man came to cut the goat only to find him stll asleep with bucket emptied. The religious guy smelt the bucket and the alcohol and deemed the goat a pisshead and non halal and refused to do the sacrifice with a tainted goat. So the guy is in the doghouse -maybe the goat house-, his wife has not spoken to him since and the goat is still at the house. The goat is the happiest one in the whole affair!!!
