C James Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Thought y'all might find this interesting. And for the record, I've never been to Nigeria, so it isn't me! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090123/ap_on_.../odd_goat_thief LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) - One of Nigeria's biggest daily newspapers reported that police implicated a goat in an attempted automobile theft. In a front-page article on Friday, the Vanguard newspaper said that two men tried to steal a Mazda car two days earlier in Kwara State, with one suspect transforming himself into a goat as vigilantes cornered him. The paper quoted police spokesman Tunde Mohammed as saying that while one suspect escaped, the other transformed into a goat as he was about to be apprehended. The newspaper reported that police paraded the goat before journalists, and published a picture of the animal. Police in the state couldn't immediately be reached for comment. Link to comment

C James Posted January 26, 2009 Author Share Posted January 26, 2009 OOps! I goofed on the URL. The one in the original post now links to the story. (It's real, BTW) As for an alibi, all I have is my precious reputation as a sweet, innocent (and quiet) goat. Link to comment

(It's real, BTW) As for an alibi, all I have is my precious reputation as a sweet, innocent (and quiet) goat. all three of those attributes can be emphatically denied with evidence and past behavior...

Site Administrator wildone Posted January 27, 2009 Site Administrator Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'm kind of glad that you included the link. I was however surprised that you on purpose left off the last sentance from the article: Belief in black magic is widespread in Nigeria, particularly in far-flung rural areas. I guess what you were trying to hide was the fact that goats are the results of black magic being used on criminals . Care to tell us about your younger years CJ? Link to comment
