Cows

from an e-mail...

COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing
that our government can track a cow born in Canada
almost three years ago, right to the stall where she
sleeps in the state of Washington, and they tracked
her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to
locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our
country. Maybe we should give them all a cow.

CONSTITUTION
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for
Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written
by a lot of really smart guys, it's worked for over
200 years, and we're not using it anymore.

TEN COMMANDMENTS
The real reason that we can't have the Ten
Commandments in a Courthouse is because you can't post
"Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit
Adultery" and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full
of lawyers, judges and politicians. It would create a
hostile work environment.

If you click the link and read a couple of articles, you might give up eating beef.

The other questions/observations are silly, but I had fun reading them.

So what exactly is your beef? That was a moooving post, but I don't think you are steaking a claim to new turf. And parts were udderly ridiculous. Just in case I should t-bone up on my bovine history though...

I got worrying about Mad Cow the other day after they found one here in Texas. Then I got thinking is the government really doing all they need to do on this? Then I thought this is one area where the industry will police itself pretty well since if they don't it will be the end of the beef industry. I'm I just being naive?

Why do they call it "PMS" ?

"Mad cow disease" was already taken.

Hay, not to horn-in, but don't bust his chops. . . that tracking post on cows was out standing ...in its field.

What the hell are these cows mad about anyway? They don't have to get up early to ride the train into the city. Hell, that sure makes me cranky!

Yeah, but they won't let us chip the Mexicans in the catch and release program.
