I can't put flip flops on without singing that line from "I'm on a Boat"

My DH wants to know if he can get one of those devises

BWAAAHAAHAAAA! I guess I could ask my vet if you want. I have no shame anymore. He's probably heard it all from me.

When I had my second son at a military hospital I realized that one of the medics in the room with me while they prepped me for a c-section was my next door neighbor. I was buck nekkid. I just said hi and was thinking whatever, I have no more pride.

I'm that way about this whole situation now.

Stop it! I just read these posts to my DH and I'm about ready to send him out for some Depends! At this age one has to be careful about laughing too hard...

We thought collecting semen on our bucks years ago was humiliating enough, but the electrical stimulation thing is just awe inspiring!

Around our household it's politely called a 'pinkie'. And when the bucklings' pinkie isn't long enough then those hoped for breedings aren't going to take place. We've got a new, almost five month old ND buckling here from Texas and he's trying his darnedest to breed his adoptive dam and another breeding age doeling, but he's not 'there' yet. Most likely next heat cycle in January.

However, on a serious note, we've never had a ND buckling reach 7 months of age and not be able (and willing) to breed everything in sight, including other bucks, the farm dog and entire barn cat population if they'd stand still long enough.

My DH's Dad is a teaching OBGYN surgeon. DH warned me over twenty years ago that at the family dinner table Dad would be sharing some off colored jokes. I remember being horrified at the first family gathering.

Looking back, I think our goatie discussion forum would embarrass my FIL, even though he's still teaching OBGYN medicine in his late 80's and has probably heard it all by now!
