DAVID: Evolution has a new discovery:-http://www.theonion.com/articles/anthropologists-trace-human-origins-back-to-one-la,19191/-Damn! These must be the folk who got the grant I should have had for my unique research project on The Universe a Zillion Years From Now. Besides, anyone who has studied human psychology could have told them that our immediate ancestor was not a goat but a sheep.

Please take it on the lamb, before I get your goat, and ram it down your throat.

DAVID: Latest news bleat: it is time for ewe to enter the silence of the lambs, before this pun run turns into a mare-athon. Please take it on the lamb, before I get your goat, and ram it down your throat.-MATT: I think David just won...-Ever since I conclusively proved that man's immediate ancestor was not a goat but a sheep, there has been a battle of lamb-ent wit between the pun-dits. It should have ended with David's last post, but although Matt's verdict is not pre-matt-ure, as I have indeed been worsted, before I abandon this text-ile explain my thinking.-Until David's last post, this had been a peaceful exchange of views. However, the threat of violence from a Texan cowboy ... a mixture of Billy the Kid, Ram-bo and Duffelo Bill ... shows that it's time for a peace tweedy: I admit defeat, Bleat a hasty retreat ... Back I goato my fence And my ewesual seat.
