			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This was an article from <a title="Goat Story" href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/us_goat">Yahoo News.</a> You can&#8217;t make this stuff up.</p>
<p>Police in Nigeria are holding a goat on suspicion of attempted armed robbery.</p>
<p>Vigilantes took the black and white beast to the police saying it was an armed robber who had used black magic to transform himself into a goat to escape arrest after trying to steal a Mazda 323.</p>
<p>&#8220;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,&#8221; Kwara state police spokesman Tunde Mohammed told Reuters by telephone.</p>
<p>&#8220;We cannot confirm the story, but the goat is in our custody. 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,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Belief in witchcraft is widespread in parts of Nigeria, Africa&#8217;s most populous nation. Residents came to the police station to see the goat, photographed in one national newspaper on its knees next to a pile of straw.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>President George W. Bush will leave behind a legacy of Bushisms, the label stamped on the commander in chief&#8217;s original speaking style. Some of the president&#8217;s more notable malaprop and mangled statements:<span id="more-319"></span></p>
<ul>
<li> &#8220;I know the human being and fish can coexist peacefully.&#8221;<br />
<address>— September 2000, explaining his energy policies at an event in Michigan.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning?&#8221;<br />
<address> — January 2000, during a campaign event in South Carolina.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;They misunderestimated the compassion of our country. I think they misunderestimated the will and determination of the commander in chief, too.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 26, 2001, in Langley, Va. Bush was referring to the terrorists who carried out the Sept. 11 attacks. </address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;There&#8217;s no doubt in my mind, not one doubt in my mind, that we will fail.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Oct. 4, 2001, in Washington. Bush was remarking on a back-to-work plan after the terrorist attacks.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;It would be a mistake for the United States Senate to allow any kind of human cloning to come out of that chamber.&#8221;<br />
<address>— April 10, 2002, at the White House, as Bush urged Senate passage of a broad ban on cloning.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;I want to thank the dozens of welfare-to-work stories, the actual examples of people who made the firm and solemn commitment to work hard to embetter themselves.&#8221;<br />
<address>— April 18, 2002, at the White House.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;There&#8217;s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it&#8217;s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can&#8217;t get fooled again.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 17, 2002, in Nashville, Tenn.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Aug. 5, 2004, at the signing ceremony for a defense spending bill.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Too many good docs are getting out of business. Too many OB/GYNs aren&#8217;t able to practice their love with women all across this country.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 6, 2004, at a rally in Poplar Bluff, Mo.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Our most abundant energy source is coal. We have enough coal to last for 250 years, yet coal also prevents an environmental challenge.&#8221;<br />
<address> — April 20, 2005, in Washington.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;We look forward to hearing your vision, so we can more better do our job.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 20, 2005, in Gulfport, Miss.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;I can&#8217;t wait to join you in the joy of welcoming neighbors back into neighborhoods, and small businesses up and running, and cutting those ribbons that somebody is creating new jobs.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 5, 2005, when Bush met with residents of Poplarville, Miss., in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;It was not always a given that the United States and America would have a close relationship. After all, 60 years we were at war 60 years ago we were at war.&#8221;<br />
<address>— June 29, 2006, at the White House, where Bush met with Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Make no mistake about it, I understand how tough it is, sir. I talk to families who die.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Dec. 7, 2006, in a joint appearance with British Prime Minister Tony Blair.</address>
</li>
<li> &#8220;These are big achievements for this country, and the people of Bulgaria ought to be proud of the achievements that they have achieved.&#8221;<br />
<address> — June 11, 2007, in Sofia, Bulgaria.</address>
</li>
<li> &#8220;Mr. Prime Minister, thank you for your introduction. Thank you for being such a fine host for the OPEC summit.&#8221;<br />
<address>— September 2007, in Sydney, Australia, where Bush was attending an APEC summit.</address>
</li>
<li> &#8220;Thank you, Your Holiness. Awesome speech.&#8221;<br />
<address>—April 16, 2008, at a ceremony welcoming Pope Benedict XVI to the White House.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;The fact that they purchased the machine meant somebody had to make the machine. And when somebody makes a machine, it means there&#8217;s jobs at the machine-making place.&#8221;<br />
<address>— May 27, 2008, in Mesa, Ariz.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;And they have no disregard for human life.&#8221;<br />
<address>— July 15, 2008, at the White House. Bush was referring to enemy fighters in Afghanistan.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;I remember meeting a mother of a child who was abducted by the North Koreans right here in the Oval Office.&#8221;<br />
<address>— June 26, 2008, during a Rose Garden news briefing.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;Throughout our history, the words of the Declaration have inspired immigrants from around the world to set sail to our shores. These immigrants have helped transform 13 small colonies into a great and growing nation of more than 300 people.&#8221;<br />
<address>— July 4, 2008 in Virginia.</address>
</li>
<li>&#8220;The people in Louisiana must know that all across our country there&#8217;s a lot of prayer — prayer for those whose lives have been turned upside down. And I&#8217;m one of them. It&#8217;s good to come down here.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Sept. 3, 2008, at an emergency operations center in Baton Rouge, La., after Hurricane Gustav hit the Gulf Coast.</address>
</li>
<li> &#8220;This thaw — took a while to thaw, it&#8217;s going to take a while to unthaw.&#8221;<br />
<address>— Oct. 20, 2008, in Alexandria, La., as he discussed the economy and frozen credit markets.</address>
</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This year Santa is once again trying to figure out how to get the presents to all the good children of the world.   It is never a dull day in the Elf Labs and this year is no exception.  Finding an inter-dimensional  portal system on a map he found years back, Santa is trying to get present to the girls and boys by shifting art through a portal system.  But nothing ever goes easy.   Check out my 2008 Christmas card to see the problems that ensue.</p>
<p><span id="more-271"></span>So this is the 2008 funny Christmas Card illustrated by me.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Christmas Card Illustrated By Matt Watier 2008" href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=2008_Christmas_Card.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb aligncenter" title="2008_Christmas_Card" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=2008_Christmas_Card.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Close the Portal Quick! Panic in the Elf Labs again this year" width="400" height="510" /></a></p>
<p>Like most of my art it is a bit of real media and digital to make this illustration.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever get that call from telemarketer and you wish you just a bit more witty to have said something to them.  Well this man has and it is by far the meanest but funniest prank I have ever seen or well heard done to one of the most annoying interruptions we have in our modern life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the last few years I have had fun making a collection of Christmas Cards.  I have enjoyed it so much it has turned from one card to now 5 and has continued to develop into sub-stories and a children book idea.  But I don&#8217;t think it is worth stringing this out so here is the art from my last few years of Christmas Cards.</p>
<p><span id="more-244"></span></p>
<p>2003 &#8211; I thought about doing a card but I didn&#8217;t want to draw Reindeer so I thought it would be fun if Santa Rode a Dinosaur.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/misc-illustrations/Santa_2003.jpg"></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=Santa_2003.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb" title="Santa_2003" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=Santa_2003.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Santa_2003" /></a></p>
<p>2004 &#8211;  I thought the last year was fun so I thought the Deer were still on Strike and so Santa looked for his answer in technology.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/misc-illustrations/santa_2004.jpg"></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=santa_2004.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb" title="santa_2004" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=santa_2004.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="santa_2004" /></a></p>
<p>2005 &#8211; Carrying the presents didn&#8217;t work so this Christmas Santa used a transporter.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=Santa2005.JPG"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb aligncenter" title="Santa2005" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=Santa2005.JPG&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Santa2005" /></a></p>
<p>2006 &#8211; I figured Santa was tried and was taking a vacation. I had just done such a vacation down in the Grand Cayman snorkeling so Santa found himself there.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/misc-illustrations/Santa_2006.jpg"></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=holiday_card_2006.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb" title="Christmas Card 2006" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=holiday_card_2006.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Christmas Card 2006" /></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/misc-illustrations/Santa_2006-inside.jpg"></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=Santa_2006-inside.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb" title="Santa_2006-inside" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=Santa_2006-inside.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Santa_2006-inside" /></a></p>
<p>2007 &#8211; Back to the striking Deer Santa turns his attention to another mythical Creature Dragons.  This time it was a grand Failure and he took notes.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/misc-illustrations/Santa_2007.jpg"></a><a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/index.php?album=Humor&amp;image=Santa_2007.jpg"><img class="ZenphotoPress_thumb" title="Santa_2007" src="http://watier.org/matt_watier/illustrations/zp-core/i.php?a=Humor&amp;i=Santa_2007.jpg&amp;w=400&amp;h=" alt="Santa_2007" /></a></p>
<p>This year I will put up the <a href="http://watier.org/matt_watier/matt-watier-inside-the-mind/humor-grab-bag/christmas-card-2008/">art for 2008 </a>when it is closer to the Christmas day because I don&#8217;t want to spoil the art for the people who will actual receive the card.</p>
<p>I hope you all enjoyed my Christmas illustrations that I did in Photoshop, Painter, and a bit of illustrator.</p>
