    I Got Yer Goat Right Here. Goat Goes Native in Brooklyn, NY.

    Just another wild animal running the streets of Fun City.

    Three months after a runaway pony and zebra caused a stir on Staten Island, another wayward barnyard animal is making headlines in NYC -- this time in Brooklyn. A stray goat was spotted in the parking lot of Brooklyn's Interfaith Medical Center in Crown Heights Thursday morning, according to a report by WCBS New York, citing Long Island affiliate WLNY.
    Six police officers chased the animal and caught up with it about a mile away to another parking lot. But they were in luck. The attendant was a West African native who was -- believe it or not -- a goat herder in his native country, according to the report.
    When I moved there, there were reports of people seeing an elephant for a period of nearly two years. Oddly enough they caught him when two cops saw him duck behind a building...

    A goat roams in Brooklyn?

    First it was A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Now this. Factor in the Dodgers leaving, the carpetbagging Nets moving in...

    I tell you, they're going to Hades in a Handbasket out there!

    Just the icing on the cake, so to speak.

    Ah Brooklyn, the ball club was called Dodgers for a reason. A move to LA changed nothing, they're still dodging something.

    I think I dodged having to explain what a Flatbush is. That and why there is no Strand Ave, but there is a Nostrand Ave. in Brooklyn.
