[AT] OT-JD, now sheep

Good to know that your fathers injuries were limited to a sore knee.
Do not know you opinion on sheep.   Although Dad was very tolerant toward 
animals, I do remember his infrequent comments that sheep had to be the 
dumbest of all animals.  "When I was knee high to a grasshopper" we had 50 
to 75 sheep for several years.  Dad never regretted the decision of 
discontinuing sheep ranching.   Dad had several good reasons, the one I 
remember was they were the only animal that would not always claim their 
newborn.
Maybe some list member is better informed of the above saying; hope so, 
because I do not know.
