That headline about solar-powered goat sweaters almost had me—I figured in survival mode, folks will try anything to keep warm, even if it sounds a little nutty!

Solar-powered goat sweaters! Now there’s an image to brighten up the morning—just imagine those glowing little critters wandering around at dusk, causing traffic jams in the pasture. That one almost got me too, honestly. As for this round, I’m going with B – Off-Grid Living: A Solution to California’s Rolling Blackouts. Makes

Definitely leaning towards B too—California seems to have a blackout for breakfast these days, so "off-grid" probably sounds like sweet music to some folks out there. A made me snort my coffee, though… imagine half the country unplugging overnight! Not buying C for a second, unless the WHO suddenly decided to ban cozy log cabins and tomatoes. Anyone else picturing census takers traipsing through the woods with clipboards, dodging goats in solar sweaters?
