#1 Actually, this is a real problem. I had something similar happen to my car in England. The local co-op ran a herd of about 50 cows on the pasture surrounding the house I rented. The cows were out one night when I came home from work. Overnight, they broke my radio antenna off, licked the paint in several places down to the primer, and did a job on both side mirrors. It cost me 800 Pounds to have all the damage repaired. The Co-op paid half, I paid half.

#4 Englishman, you need an f 250 with dual tires and an automatic feeder and an ez loader on the back. Don't forget the hat and the bourbon.

#8 Legitimate concern in the oil patch. A cow will stand and drink crude oil from a pipeline leak until it falls over dead. It then becomes very valuable, albeit deceased, prime breeding stock.

#13 #10
surgically precise removal of the reproductive organs and anal coring.

Sounds to me that someone has been screwing that anamal and didn't want to leave any DNA.

#14 i think if the damage was only $100, i would have kept quiet about it.

#15 anal coring

A phrase it never occurred to me would ever become part of my vocabulary.
