“Blaze” the Goat

Jul

So, after my earlier post about the “World Famous Balloon Blowing/Talking Goat” I did a quick Google search (why wouldn’t I?). It turns out, apparently the whole thing is (not so surprisingly) a sham… apparently “Dr. Happy LaClair” (a clown) inflates the balloons with a concealed tank of compressed gas, and, as Brian Fellow said:

“Goats can’t talk, that’s crazy!”

The reason I’m mentioning this now is twofold. First, I hope to spare you the heartbreak of paying hard-earned money to discover that “Dr. Happy” is a charlatan (allegedly). Second, last night I just happened to see the aforementioned Brian Fellow’s Safari Planet skit on an SNL repeat. Coincidence? Synchronicity? Hmm…

For year.. Dr. Happy has made folks laugh all this country… perhaps if you could only take the time to see their faces.. and stop being so “self absorbed”… loosen up… relax… and try for a change.. to be human

You’re kidding, right? For someone who values laughter, you certainly seem to be humor-impaired.
I’m not sure how I got relegated to sub-human status, but it does appear that one of us needs to “loosen up” and “relax” and I’m pretty sure it’s not me.
