10,000 Sheep →[More:]Thousands of workers on Amazon's Mechanical Turk webservice were paid two cents to "draw a sheep facing to the left." Their sheep drawings were collected and printed on collectable stamps. (via)
For those of us who haven't seen 10K sheep in one place. Not all of them are to the left, either. Rebels.

Once in school we were told there was going to be a test. We were to take out our pens and a piece of paper. Then we were told we had ten seconds to draw a dog.

I think it was some kind of creativity test or something but I'm not sure.

This is in concert with the 150,000 Wool Scarves Market, the 500,000 Lamb Chops Market, and the 2.5 billion Soft Blanky Market.

The sheep I picked looks like the state of Tennessee.

Rupert the Woolsucker took one look at it and fainted from joy.

Hmmm...maybe that explains why the sheep I looked at appeared to have been sheared...

I wanted to see if there were really 10,000 of them, but I fell asleep.
