Got Moo'd at!

I was riding to work today when I heard this noise that sounded kind of like a horn but a bit different. As I turned to look, a cattle truck went by hauling about 50 calfs. The critters were not happy and mooing up a storm. Ah, the joys of rural living! (At least they didn't all decide to relieve themselves at that moment!)

ROFLMAO... Considering that one of the open threads over in touring is a "Do you moo at cows?" poll. (btw, the overwhelming answer is YES).

Well, since getting married a couple of months ago, we've been living on a farm. So cows mooing at me is a daily thing (thankfully, the cows left yesterday!)...

Just enjoy it. It's cow-speak for "hello"!

Yeah, one of my other hobbies is canoeing. I rounded a bend in the river once and came face to face with a huge Bull! He looked suprised, but not as suprised as I was. Thankfully, the river was wide enough to scoot by him out of horn range!

I hate to say it but I moo at the cows. I pass a sales barn lot every day. Fun stuff, better than cow tipping or cow pie huffing ( some kids around here actually got caught huffing them ).

They say it's fine to moo to yourself as long as you don't moo back.
