      1. I had a slice of cow for dinner – and got a slice for left over … and I have frozen slabs in the freezer. I love me cow … I do have some pretty ones on my shelf.

      1. Quite an interesting town, that Friona Tx. I had a interesting time reading about their school system, including the school mascots names. It might be time to progress forward and choose a new name for your school mascot(s). Or at least, not publicly broadcast the politically offensive mascot name you have on something as large as a school bus.

        1. And what about those fancy buses? You know, we were just as football crazy, but we had to travel to away games in those drafty old yellow school buses with their fumes, rattling windows, and hard seats.

          Kids today, sheesh.

          1. We were old school to the core. Hard to believe with all the safety features on cars today, cheese wagons (school buses) haven’t evolved that much.

            1. It must be a rude awakening to kids who’ve been traveling mini-van first class with their choice of movies, pillows and blankets provided, as well as cup holders for all their snacks and beverages, to suddenly have to pile into coach with no amenities.

              1. Who goes to school with above economy class (air travel)? Territory Days used some of the school buses as shuttles, they have 6 to 12 cameras scattered along the roof (I think the larger buses in DC had 3 or 4). I never felt comfortable with the window escape hatch. If they were ever used, it means at least half of the passengers are crushed while the few on top try to get through that little window. The other thing that scares me about those vehicles is a scene from a movie about killer bees. At least the newer buses have better emissions controls.

      1. I could just see a cow themed Rent:

        Moo Moo MooMoo Moo-Moo?
        Moo Moo MooMoo Moo-Moo?
        MOO MOO’o MOO!
        MOO MOO’o MOO!
        MOO! MOO! MOO! MO-MOO!

        Moo!

          1. Don’t forget to get your official Moo! soundtrack, available in stores nation wide where Edison cylinders are sold.

  1. Haven’t seen a cow in years! Every Sunday my dad used to take the family for car trips across the Missouri River into what was rural farm lands and point out all the “Black Agnes Cows” standing in the fields. (It was sort of a family joke.) It’s all sub-suburban highway clutter now … with no cows named Agnes or Angus.

  2. We went to my mom’s yesterday and saw lots and lots of cows along the way. When we were done, we went out to have a nice slice of cow for supper.

  3. I have seen lots of cows and their calfs in the fields this year. It makes me sad that they will be on someone’s plate before they hit puberty.

    1. I’ve never eaten veal. I also don’t eat lamb or mutton. Just can’t do it. If I’d try harder, I’d give up all meat, but I guess I don’t want to have to plan different meals for everyone at The Compound.
