John Sampson, of Burlington, Ontario, was born on January 2nd at 3:45 am - that's 1-2-3-4-5! Aww! A cafe in Tokyo, Japan, has adopted some goats for customers to pet while they are drinking coffee. French aristocrat Pierre Remy de Beauve invented an early diving suit in 1715!

Goats are cute, but boy they do poop everywhere….My friend had some, and some miniature donkey’s. He ended up getting rid of the goats because the poop everywhere, but the donkey’s went in very specific locations all the time.(plus, the goats were pretty mean, the donkeys were like big dogs, real nice, but the goats….)
