Althouse: "We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody."

३१ मार्च, २००९

"We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody."

"The group of vigilante men came to report that while they were on patrol they saw some hoodlums attempting to rob a car. They pursued them. However one of them escaped while the other turned into a goat.... We cannot base our information on something mystical. It is something that has to be proved scientifically, that a human being turned into a goat."

Beta Conservative म्हणाले...: If a person turns into a goat, and you create a variety of stews, soups, and delicious grilled items with the goat, is that cannablism?

Should cumin be used?

KCFleming म्हणाले...: So that's what happened to the Nigerian guy who e-mailed me and said the sum of US$ 17,350,000.00 was sitting in the Bank because no one ever came forward to claim it, and proosed that I stand in as the next of kin to Mr. Moses Odiaka so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials, but instead transferred into my account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 35% for him and 5% for Expenses Incurred in the course of the transaction.

I have already sent him $3289 for the Expenses, but still no word after a year. And all this time he was now a goat, and could not respond.

That explains everything.; ३१/३/०९, ८:५१ AM

You'd think he would've stolen a Pontiac GTO, not a Mazda 323!

Cedarford म्हणाले...: Had the story been from the UK or Taiwan or 80 other countries, everyone would have been amazed at the level of idiotry.

But this was from Nigeria, so it only warrants a shrug. Had it been reported to have happened in Haiti or Pakistan or Ghana - same "shrug".

The soft bigotry of low expectations.; ३१/३/०९, ३:२२ PM
