Luther brags that the soap is all natural, made with ingredients such as sugar, shortening, oatmeal, canola oil, safflower oil and olive oil, all common party items.

I don't understand that at all.

Legend has it that Cleopatra bathed in tubs of goat's milk to keep her skin beautiful.

There was also a countess who bathed in the blood of maidens because she thought it kept her beautiful.

Didn't ancient Egyptians also use crocodile dung for tampons? Egyptian beauty secrets for all!

Comfortably_Numb		2003-06-03 10:14:23 PM

Please, make sure that the goat you milk is indeed a female.

wldncrzy14		2003-06-03 11:18:33 PM

Comfortably_Numb, I don't know what you're talking about but the males seem to milk just fine.

Xtremehkr		2003-06-03 11:27:03 PM

In 2000 years soap has gotten nowhere? At least it isn't made from whale fat anymore.

Hytes Xian		2003-06-03 11:36:01 PM

Let's not forget that the ancient Egyptians also enslaved the Jews and sold weapons to Mesopotamia.

bmihura		2003-06-03 11:37:47 PM

Not that this is relevant, but when I was 6, I was allergic to cow's milk but could drink goat's milk. Good stuff, as I recall.

homeless_need_help		2003-06-03 11:39:17 PM

Frankly, I'd rather rub myself with cheese.

Mmmm, cheese.

L'EnfantTerrible		2003-06-03 11:40:54 PM

Anyone else think of "Good Idea/Bad Idea" from Animaniacs?

That show was the shiat.

Smokahontas		2003-06-03 11:41:18 PM

Why mess with a good thing, Xtremehkr?

Of course, my grandmother used to make hers with just lye (aquired from fireplace ash) and animal fat, so I'm thinking the goat's milk might be better.

yeradoof		2003-06-03 11:43:43 PM

Have the peasants been cut off from the boobies?

imcguyver		2003-06-03 11:47:46 PM

Was bubble bath used?

bmihura		2003-06-03 11:48:07 PM

Yes, we peasants get no boobies until Drew gets his finances in order. :(

HollandRivers		2003-06-03 11:48:28 PM

I could make a ton of jokes about my landlord, but you guys dont know him...so technically (sp) that wouldnt be funny at all :(

HollandRivers		2003-06-03 11:49:02 PM

btw: was that woman who bathed in all the blood named Bathory? Could be wrong.

Luther brags that the soap is all natural, made with ingredients such as sugar, shortening, oatmeal, canola oil, safflower oil and olive oil, all common pantry items.

But isn't shortening just hydrogenated vegetable oil, a completely unnatural, manmade product ?

grant-o		2003-06-03 11:56:21 PM

Moo goes the goat

icepal		2003-06-03 11:56:54 PM

rather loose interpretation of "all natural" considering canola oil/lye are listed.

/stick with "store bought" soap

NashvilleDave		2003-06-03 11:59:22 PM

Sounds like it might taste good too; throw a bar of this in your oatmeal and you're good to go.

FeatherFace		2003-06-04 12:00:27 AM

So many have bathed in goats milk,

Cleopatra did, and her skin was like silk

But take a goat in your bath,

And you'll endure the wrath

Of PETA, and those of their ilk

/i beat the limerick guy, I beat the limerick guy!

Krappy		2003-06-04 12:03:40 AM

hate the French

jonr		2003-06-04 12:03:47 AM

A year later, the couple owns 15 does, four bucks and 13 kids...
13 kids? Whoa dude! No wonder they are broke.

Sidi		2003-06-04 12:06:16 AM

Icepal plus, the normal brands probably cost 1/10 of this crap. And work much better.

Meaning you have more money to get girls drunk, and aren't covered in dirt...meaning more chances to get lucky.

Young_Fart		2003-06-04 12:06:31 AM

Er, all soap is made with lye. But you can make a case for lye being a natural product as well, since you can get it from ash. Colonists made plenty of soap without the assistance of the petrochemical industry.

MadSci		2003-06-04 12:07:48 AM

The headline should be:

"Good Idea: Bathing with goat milk.
Bad Idea: Bathing with goat.
The End."

What, they never showed Animaniacs in Kentucky?

kunal		2003-06-04 12:08:19 AM

Anyone remember those Good Idea/Bad Idea segments? Those were damn funny.

/obscure Animaniacs reference

Sidi		2003-06-04 12:08:50 AM

Young_Fart but you have to use a chemical reaction to make it...thus it really doesn't fit the normal "natural" label. But the whole "organic" and "natural" crap is all a crock of shiat anyway (let's see, crude oil is not only natural, it is organic by several definitions).

WCU_Guy		2003-06-04 12:09:48 AM

All I can think of is scary Fight Club scenes

kunal		2003-06-04 12:09:48 AM

L'EnfantTerrible - I posted without reading your comment... but yes, I do remember those. And now I just read MadSci's comment. They need to start airing those episodes at decent times.

Garanimal		2003-06-04 12:10:17 AM

Romans used to brush their teeth with urine. high ammonia content. tastes like chicken.

Ku_No_Ichi		2003-06-04 12:10:55 AM

crap and fark.
I'm hungry and want to go to dinner.

andonbray		2003-06-04 12:11:55 AM

I got suspended one time for using a corked goat.

kunal		2003-06-04 12:12:21 AM

"A year later, the couple owns 15 does, four bucks and 13 kids, all Alpines and Toggenburgs."
You'd think they'd come up with more creative names for their children.

Canadians used to use urine on their hands to keep them from chapping in the winter, still doesn't make it right.

Sidi		2003-06-04 12:16:06 AM

Sidi		2003-06-04 12:16:55 AM

Again.

Young_Fart		2003-06-04 12:18:56 AM

Sidi, yeah, you've got a point. They could've created hydrogen from coal and hydrogenated their own oil. I can't quite remember when coke production started, but it seems like we had steam locomotives by then.

Anyhow, goat milk soap really is the cat's meow. My folks bought an overpriced water softener from some salesman, and they got a ton of soap to go along with it. The goats' milk soap they got though is liquid, and it really is very mild.

Young_Fart		2003-06-04 12:20:41 AM

Canadians used to use urine on their hands to keep them from chapping in the winter, still doesn't make it right.

Yeah, but we all know the protection was just a happy coincidence.

WalletInspector		2003-06-04 12:25:09 AM

"Luther, formerly of Camp Hill, never planned to become a goat soap entrepreneur."

I've made some bad choices in my lifetime (those chicks from Mexico, the whole trip to Amsterdam), but what do you have to do to become a goat soap entrepreneur. He must have pissed off Fate big time.

*This comment by no means shows WalletInspector's believe in Fate, its just a joke.

Hytes Xian		2003-06-04 12:27:23 AM

Is it true that urine cures athlete's foot? I tried it once, but all I remember is the sensual nature of peeing on my feet in the shower. Come to think of it, I don't have athlete's foot.

icepal		2003-06-04 12:29:15 AM

knee-deep in goat shiat, he exclaimed "I never thought i'd be a goat soap entrepeneur.

Keelin		2003-06-04 12:32:03 AM

Thales - Good point. Must try that sometime.

This is really not an interesting article. False advertisement. I thought it'd have to do with bathing with a goat. *sniffle* It was just a glorified ad. Goat ad.

skinink		2003-06-04 12:37:23 AM

"Canadians used to use urine on their hands to keep them from chapping in the winter, still doesn't make it right."

(a joke I think I saw in Maxim):
A Harvard student and a Yale student are taking a piss. The Yale student finishes and goes to wash his hands; the Harvard student finishes and does not wash his hands.

The Yale student says, "At Yale, when we are done pissing, we wash our hands."

The Harvard student says back, "At Harvard, we don't piss on our hands."

Young_Fart		2003-06-04 01:02:28 AM

You're soaking in it!

[i]A year later, the couple owns 15 does, four bucks and 13 kids[/i]

How are they going to raise 15 kids on $4?
Let's see goat milk get them out of THAT!

My Boobies here :)

Broman		2003-06-04 01:37:52 AM

why did it change "Boobies" to "boobies"

...and how do you do italics?

...and I know I was beaten to the joke....but I would have been first but it wouldn't let me post earlier...

Well thats a farked up "Boobies" :(

Broman		2003-06-04 01:40:15 AM

AHHH IT KEEPS DOING IT!!

...I dont understand why they censore "ferst po sst" to (of all things) boobies....
