It seems the traditional 42 foot (13 meter) tall goat made of straw has become the target of firebugs who have made a tradition of trying to burn it down.

Here's a highlight of the story.

Vandals have so far failed to burn down the traditional Swedish Christmas monument, which has been soaked with flame-resistant chemicals for the first time, officials said Friday Dec 15 2006. An overnight raid Thursday was the first attack of the season against the 13-meter-high (43-foot-high) Christmas goat, pictured on Dec 3 in the city of Gavle, 150 kilometers (90 miles) north of Stockholm. The goat has been burned down more than 20 times in the last 40 years in what has become a violent yule tradition. Last year's goat was burned down by vandals dressed up as Santa Claus and the Gingerbread Man. They were never caught.

I was reading through some of the Q and A's on this site, and I just HAD to make an account. I CANNOT believe some of the questions on this thing. Some of them are CRAZED. Like have you ever come across a question that just made you stop think "WTF?" One where you just HAD to reread it, just to make sure your mind was processing it correctly?

This really got me thinking so I just HAD to comment on it and I wanted to ask: What is the FUNNIEST post you have ever read on this website?

This question below is the one that finally drove me to create an account! So i'm now just wondering, can ANYTHING top this one? Is so, provide a link and prove it!

They get into trouble then the lives of Rescue Teams are put at risk and thousands of Dollars are spent in an effort to save them.
Then there are the Wives and Children who may lose thier loved one.
And for Bloody WHAT?
I am talking about the three men lost on a Mountain in the States of course. One has already been found Dead. The others are still missing. Our prayers must go out to all involved.....

I heard that he doesn't like chocolate ice cream because he says it reminds him of black people. Was Kanye West right? I thought Kanye was a total dumbass for saying that George Bush doesn't like balck people, but maybe he was right. I have heard this rumor three or four times in the last week from totally different sources. What's the deal?

I heard that a girl named Lisa was on an istant messanger and a person that she didnt know loved her.
he said that he would appear at her house so she got scared and slept with her sister. she awoke because she heard tapping on the window and she went back to lay down and she felt something wet and it stunk bad.it was blood.
Then the guy skinned the older sister and hung her in the little sisters closet. Before that she carved her name date and time in to the floor.
a few years later the parents had a baby boy.
So he went on instant messanger and the older sister asked him if his parnts told him that he had a sister.The parents didnt.
So the girl killed his parents because they never told him that he had two sisters.
he didnt believ her so she said to check in the closet where she carved her name date abnd time into the floor. it was true.

This is mainly for those that don't believe in Global warming, though all are welcome to answer. I'm curious, even if you choose to believe global warming isn't happening (and I could understand that), I assume you must realize that the pollution in the air is still a very bad thing. Even if you don't believe it is raising the temperature of the earth, it must have a hand in destroying our capacity to breathe (with all the contaminants in the air) and almost certainly is related to rise in cancers and other diseases.

I am curious as to why you are against environment protection ideas; even with the lack of global warming (and there is very strong evidence it occurs; but for purposes of argument, I'm willing to say it isn't) the danger to us is remarkable. Why specifically are you trying to get rid of environment protection laws?

I used to live across the river from New Orleans, on the westbank. I dont live there anymore since the hurricane. I just want to know how the rest of the country/world feels about what happened there. Please answer with the state or country you live in. The hurricane was the natural disaster but the leeves breaking and those people being stranded there without even water or food being sent for 4 days is a government disaster.
