Songs for goats (and lonely goat-herds)

I'm thinking of doing the iTunes affilates program to earn revenue on the songs I recommend on this blog. What do you all think? Have any of you done this? My first instinct is to funnel all the money into a non-profit organization, but part of me thinks, "If I earned money from recommending the songs, then I could use the money to buy... more songs!"

Still, I've decided that any money this site make from iTunes affiliates goes toward the purchase of a goat. Since I can't keep a goat in my own backyard for various reasons,* I'm going to donate the goat to someone else via Heifer. According to Heifer's catalog, each goat costs 120.00 USD. Of course, I can buy shares of a goat, but who really wants pieces of goat when a whole one works so much better?



*If I get a goat, then I'll have to hire a goat-herd so I can go away on weekends. Then, the goat-herd will get lonely, and I'll have to find a companion for the goat-herd. Then, the goat-herd and his or her companion will complain that there aren't blackberry bushes in our yard, and we'll have to grow some so that the goat can give sweet milk. And I just know that once the goatherd and the companion get milk from the goat, everyone's going to want cookies to go with it...
