February 2012 - Argghhh!

For when the Guineas of Argghhh! are doing formation runs or practicing crossing danger areas... And down the road, some new signage. Because people sometimes get confused about which gate is the Main Gate to Horseholm, the South 40. Not the West 136, which belongs to someone else, though the Exterior Guard are known to conduct cross-border reconnaissance on a regular basis. All legally obtained, btw, via DRMO. This is Castle Argghhh!'s contribution to recycling. We do not encourage people to...

According to this test -- from the Intercollegiate Studies Institute -- yes, I am. There were no questions on it that I didn't either learn in high school or in discussions with my profs in collitch.And I maxed the test.

Probably because her udders hurt, because she just assumed that Bubba was going to be like most men and just make her teats hurt. So here's a pic of the young sleepyhead...

Now there is "The People Who Live With Goats." In their house. Welcome to Castle Argghhh!, where we take our faux-medieval imagery seriously, sometimes....
