Due to popular demand we&#x27;re going to do a run of Doughboy t-shirts. They&#x27;re available in three different shades of green until Friday, May 16th, when we&#x27;ll place the first order to the printer based on your pre-orders. At least two of the colors will be discontinued at that point, so if you&#x27;re particularly choosy about your (soylent) greens be sure to order now.</description>

			<description>One of the best ways to put off spring lawn maintenance at your posh country estate is to draw comics about spring lawn maintenance. For me, anyway. Your mileage may vary. I&#x27;m hoping that by the end of this storyline I will be a kung-fu master of foliage, I am determined to be able to throw off a monocotyledon jungle scene like I had it up my sleeve all along. The last time we saw Phillip and friends they were about to be blowed up real good by a crazy broccoli guy and his fusion grenade. Good thing that Machine Elf...</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the best ways to put off spring lawn maintenance at your posh country estate is to draw <a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/080428.html">comics about spring lawn maintenance</a>. For me, anyway. Your mileage may vary.</p>
<p>I'm hoping that by the end of this storyline I will be a kung-fu master of foliage, I am determined to be able to throw off a monocotyledon jungle scene like I had it up my sleeve all along.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/071204.html">The last time we saw Phillip and friends</a> they were about to be blowed up real good by a <a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/071203.html">crazy broccoli guy and his fusion grenade</a>. Good thing that <a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/070925.html">Machine Elf Corporation Port-A-Portal in the first stall</a> was in working condition, or they'd all be out of order. Eh? <i>Eh?</i></p>
<p>Let's say, hypothetically, that all the strips I've done since <a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/031201.html">December 2003</a> comprise three volumes of a six or seven volume tale. In this hypothetical scenario, <a href="http://www.goats.com/archive/080428.html">Lost</a> would probably be the opener for volume 4. I've been wanting to make some changes to the Goats font for some time now, and this seemed as good a time as any. But who could I turn to for help?</p>
<p>Webcomics superhero <a href="http://www.starslip.com/">Kris Straub</a> was all up in that font, and I think you'll agree that it's a whole lot more legible than it was while still retaining much of the character of the old font. The fact that I haven't gotten any hate mail yet leads me to believe it was a fairly painless transition for most of you.</p>
<p>We'll be making tweaks to the font in the upcoming days, adding variants and alternate caps characters and that sort of thing, but let us know if you like what you see! If you don't like it, whisper your cruel words into a nearby pillow.</p>
<p>Most of you are probably familiar with Kris' <a href="http://www.starslip.com/">Starslip Crisis</a>, which is epic scifi comedy that any sane Goats reader is also reading on a daily basis. Kris is also one of the guys behind <a href="http://store.nightlightpress.com/htmw.shtml">How To Make Webcomics</a>. <a href="http://www.evil-comic.com/">Brad Guigar</a> gave me a copy at NYCC the other week but I haven't gotten a chance to read it yet; I'll post my thoughts here when I do, but all indications so far are that it's <a href="http://www.fleen.com/archives/2008/04/29/fleen-book-corner-how-to-make-webcomics/">quite excellent</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded>

			<description>Firstly, Litany of Beer Pint Glasses are still on sale! I&#x27;m going to place the first order tonight so if you want to make sure you get one of this first batch please place your order today. 
Secondly, Jerrell is back! Jerrell was a programer at Phillip&#x27;s highly theoretical place of employment. It&#x27;s been a few years since we&#x27;ve seen him and his experiences seem to have disturbed him somewhat. 
You may recall his adventures gnawing on robots, watching sex dwarves and koalas duke it out, eating hamsters, gnawing on zombies, meeting Johnny Cash,hacking the internets and more.</description>
