Mountains come from mole hills, often.

Whence, or whair from cometh the lowly disgusting mole hair?

Hohohoho! Camembebert!

OK, back to class. Since we have been speaking of Cheese, a subject dear to me:

The name of the cheese shop Mary, Mother-o-God ran in the village?

Cheeses of Nazareth.

What were the names of her goats?

Gott and Son of Gott. Smellzy. Holy Goat. Goat Tell-it-on-the-mountain. Goat One. Goat Two. Goat To-Go. Goat Ripping. Goat Milk. John's Favorite. John's Other Favorite.

It is widely speculated among the biblical scholars who have researched rock climbing in the bible, that John the cousin of Jeshua was a phenomenally gifted boulderer. His pad was filled with goat hair and goats were his main companions in the desert and taught him much about reading rock.

There are just seven references to goats in the entire New Testament.

In the Old Testament, there are a total of 138, of which, 82 are in the Pentateuch, the others scattered through-out other books.

And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.--Leviticus 16:5

Nancy Grace has a penis, but it's so small she can fit it inside a shot glass.

I swear this is true.

Babe Ruth’s immense talents did not lead to instantaneous stardom. After pitching two games for the Red Sox in 1914, he was sent down to the minors.

It was there, while playing for the Providence Grays, that he hit his first professional home run, in Toronto, of all places.

It was the only home run he ever hit in 46 minor-league games.
