Reporter Does His Thing, Cow Takes a Dump

GiggleSugar — Mon, 12 May 2008 07:34:42 -0700

It baffles my mind why any entertainment news correspondent would report from a barnyard and go live while sitting in front of a cow's ass. (On second thought, it makes plenty of sense.) That's exactly what this dude did and the cow behind him used the opportunity to share his thoughts on the young Hollywood scene.

What Does This Sign Mean?

Time For A Knock-Knock Joke!

GiggleSugar — Fri, 16 Mar 2007 03:00:00 -0700

Cow: Knock-Knock.

Screaming Senorita: Who's there?

Cow: A cow.

Screaming Senorita: A cow who?

Cow: A cow that wants you to mooooove out of the doorway. What were you raised in, a barn?

More Interspecies Love!

On this week's episode of Days Of Our Barnyard Lives, two cows take an active interest in the same cat. But as the tension mounts, this unlikely love triangle will get explosive. Tune in next week for Kitty's choice and prepare to be moooved...

Product of the Day: Oopsie-Daisy Cow Jelly Bean Dispenser

GiggleSugar — Mon, 04 Dec 2006 07:02:00 -0800

When pressed, the Oopsie-Daisy Cow Jelly Bean Dispenser releases a coffee or carmel flavored jelly bean from its tail end.

This gives new meaning to the term "Jelly Belly." I don't even want to know how someone schemed up this concept, but I do think it's a fabulous way to disguise your beans and keep your coworker's greedy paws out of your candy stash. It's also an effective, not to mention ironic, way to keep your goodies safe from contaminants, such as hand and airborne germs, although mental contamination is inevitable- would the looks of this make you hungry?

So go ahead and have a cow, or even two--because it would make a crappy holiday gift for those less than desirable in-laws, yes?

Thanks for the sending this our way, cubavalerie311!

Milky The Marvelous Milking Cow

The kids in this commercial must've been tip-top actors, because I refuse to believe that children were ever this pumped about playing with a messy plastic cow. I'd much rather play with an Oopsie-Daisy Cow Dispenser that could at least crap real jelly beans all day long.

Cows Become Currency in Zimbabwe

LibertySugar — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 14:30:59 -0700

A Zimbabwe school is telling parents that if they can't scrape up enough money, they should pay tuition with livestock or fuel coupons. Thanks to insane inflation, parents are short on cash. School fees are about 100,000 Zimbabwe dollars, but banks only let people withdraw 1,000 Zimbabwe dollars a day. In addition, the official inflation rate this year is 11,000,000 percent.

Even though school officials say the in-kind tuition deal idea came from the parents, residents are asking the government to step in a stop the program. Many worry that the teachers or headmasters are getting a windfall from the practice.

Since the money crisis has been turning people into vegetarians, it makes some sense they are giving up their livestock. Maybe President Bush should tell Congress that they better pass the bailout soon, or the US will soon be using cows as its currency.

Chew on This: Study Finds Herds Have a Built-in Compass

LibertySugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 06:00:44 -0700

Next time you can't find the North Star, you might consider looking for the nearest pack of cows. A recent study of Google Earth satellite images found that herds of cattle gravitate to face in the north-south direction of Earth's magnetic lines. The study also noted some types of deer have shown the same pattern, according to the BBC.

Many smaller species, such as birds and salmon, are known to use the earth's magnetic fields in seasonal migration; however, these recent findings show larger mammals have a similar internal sense of direction.

The researchers surveyed Google Earth images of 8,510 grazing and resting cattle in 308 pasture plains across the world. Apparently, it was often hard for them to distinguish heads from tails, but they were able to determine that animals tend to face either north or south.

If you're wondering what this means, read more.

The study ruled out the possibility that the sun or wind direction were major factors in the orientation of the cattle. A sensory biologist from Virginia Tech University points out scientists still need to consider what benefit this "sixth magnetic sense" might provide for mammals.

For now, it seems there are no immediate answers. Do you have any guesses? This whole phenomenon is sure to show up in the next edition of Trivial Pursuit.

Ruh Roh!

A reporter's thankless job sends him into a stable full of cows where he's placed in front of a desk as well as "the business end of a cow," as his correspondent far removed from the stable so colorfully puts it. And what do you know! As if on cue, the cow does what cows do with their business ends. Good times.
