While searching Amazon for a microscope to purchase as a Hanukah present for Stepdaughter the Younger, I came across the following customer review:
"For the cost of this microscope.
It is a very effective microscope.
And easy to use.
I use for running fecal's on my goats.
And will let all other goat raisers.
Know this is the microscope to get."
What a lovely, lyrical review! I love the use of punctuation, and the ironic twist, as the first stanza's rather concrete tone gives way to the second stanza's beautiful imagery... regarding the author's goats' fecal matter. This review not only makes me want to buy the microscope, it makes me want to raise some goats, so I can run some fecals on them. Whatever that means.
I wonder how many other Amazon reviews contain the word "fecal?" Or "goats," for that matter?
