Goat sacrifice and frequent flyer miles

Whenever I am in need of a post topic, I visit my friend the Bible Belt Blogger and he fills me up, today with a BBC story about how an Indian airline was chopping off goat heads to appease the gods. The BBB says:

This may be the first time that goats have died to prevent Boeing 757s from experiencing mechanical difficulties. However, I've read that chickens are sometimes fired, at high speeds -- into the sides of jumbo jets to be sure they're structurally sound.
