The inhabitants of Shingle Paradise are gathered around their kitchen table having just completed their evening meal. The conversation turns to Kara's goats...
Sara: We should kill them instead of shearing them this spring!
Kara: That's been suggested before, but Americans have a really weak stomach for that kind of thing.
Sara (pondering and remembering a movie of an elk-killing that nearly made her throw up): I think I could kill the goat, but I'm not so sure I could skin it and all that afterwards.
Mia: Why don't you skin it first? Oh, crap, I mean...

not to be all macho or anything, but i could kill your goats.
although the implement of death would make a huge difference as to how good i felt about it. for instance, a gun would probably be okay, a cinder block not so much.

It's not just the killing them that's revolting--after you do that, you have to skin them and remove the meat and make stew out of it. But if you can handle that, go for it! (with Kara's permission, of course).

Go for it Nathan. Just don't get too much blood in my barn.

And Nathan, wouldn't you rather drown the goat, seeing as that's the most humane way and all? ;)
