It's so boring
« on: January 11, 2007 »

LC - I have some advice for you regarding sheep -

1. if they are going away from you, it is because they are frightened, and when they are frightened they run away. Sheep get frightened very, very easily. If there are some sheep on the road and you want them to move, just walk (or cycle, or drive) towards them, waving your hands and making whooshing noises. In fact, they will run away even if you don't wave your hands or make the whooshing noises, but it's more amusing if you do make them. All sheep are like this. There are no exceptions.

2. If they are coming towards you, it is because they think you are a farmer with some food. If you are brave enough to hold your ground, they will stop about 15 feet away and just stand there staring at you, waiting for the food. After a while, either you will get bored of this, or they will get bored of it; and you will part and go your separate ways feeling quite underwhelmed by the experience.

3. if you go towards some sheep, they will get scared and run away.

4. if you go away from some sheep, they won't notice.

That's about it for sheep. Learn something every day!
