Synchronicity

The universe is trying to tell me something.

Specifically, it's trying to tell me something about fainting goats. For those that aren't familiar with this breed of goat, here's a short video:



Three times in the past week I've happened across some reference to the goats on TV. First came last week's episode of Mythbusters (great show, by the way), where they put the breed's reputation to the test. Next, I happened on a ten year-old movie, "Addicted to Love," on cable while channel surfing. At one point while I had it on, one of the characters begins talking about fainting goats. Finally, tonight, I flipped past CNN and there was Anderson Cooper talking about . . . you guessed it, fainting goats.

This cannot be a coincidence. Clearly the cosmic forces are trying to tell me something about these goats. Now if I could only figure out what.

Would it kill the cosmic forces to be a bit clearer?

  1. The mind boggles. Not just at fainting goats. And not just that they have such wide audience appeal (why else do they come up on TV so offen?). But because the cosmic forces are clearly confused about how best to signal that you should contact the No-Knees Fainting Goat Farm, which supplies "unique, multi-purpose, and medium sized" goats.

    If you want clarification from the cosmic forces, ask them to clear up which purposes exactly such a goat is best used for.
