Cow Sense

Each week a Pierce Point Ranch Dairy Cow Herd closed-fence meeting takes place on the secluded pasture below. The agenda today is about the California Milk Board's TV commercials claim that, "California cows are happier". Yes, milk cows are happy but, sadly, boy cows tend to end up on the dinner table. Some of the more radical bovine members are quite bullish about the issue. Mooved by this ugly reality, the cows have stated for the record that it behooves them to become one with the cowsmos.
