I, too, enjoyed the humor.
Even more, I'm thrilled to hear about the kids & that they are doing well,
Roger. It's been many, many years since I had the pleasure of being around
baby goats, but they really are enchanting, IMHO!
And, I would totally support naming them Cinco and Mayo if you choose to do
so -- that would almost be too cute for words :-)

Thanks for the humor.
We had two female kids born yesterday. Both doing good. Maybe we will call
the Cinco and Mayo.
