I retired from teaching in 1999 and haven't regretted it for a second, although I admit that when I am alone, I sometimes teach imaginary lessons on subjects I know nothing about to imaginary students.<br /><br />Do you think cows are making me do that?CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105598015852813723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-30361881077524065572011-08-30T11:02:06.337-04:002011-08-30T11:02:06.337-04:00I'm so sorry--I didn't mean to be so harsh...I'm so sorry--I didn't mean to be so harsh, but I was shocked to see how vehemently you wrote about the bovine species when you were once so very enamored of them. I thought it could only be attributed to either too many martinis or an idle mind looking for something to do. Hopefully there will soon be some news stories that will restore your faith in everything "cow" and return you to the pleasant pastures of cow worship of days past.Life at the Funny Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13163009005598548100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-72800124315196912092011-08-29T09:36:16.150-04:002011-08-29T09:36:16.150-04:00mikey--I still love that seeing cows makes anyone ...mikey--I still love that seeing cows makes anyone think of me. And I love the ambiguity at work in your comment: perhaps abnormal and subversive applies a bit to both of us. LOL.<br /><br />the bug--oh my. workers for jesus. i think i did have the cinci freecow on my list at one point, but you know the old adage: so many cows, so little time! on another note, i'm so glad you are recovering at such a rapid pace down there in SOhio. Good Woman!<br /><br />LaFF--Yikes. Harsh. And I don't, as a rule, eat lunch (or drink it,for that matter). I do wish, however, that foodstuffs in the local market <i>would</i> speak to me if they would give me some hints as to what to make with them for dinner. That is the worst part of my day, figuring out what the hell to make. Urk.<br /><br />Jazz--I'm so glad you've stuck around if you're going to compose haiku! You and Ortizzle can have Poetry Slams in Comments. Makes me realize that I need to resurrect the Snarku <i>tout de suite</i>! (You'd love the Snarku. Just search my archives for it.<br /><br />Ortizzle--Hee hee! As usual, your meter is impeccable. Notice that there are no Texas cows in these Exhibits. As someone once said, "Don't mess with Texas." Ugh.<br /><br />Sillyak--Oh my. Well, Amtrak certainly is doing its part as a WMD. As a still-huge fan of All Things Cow, you know I would more than welcome a Cow Takeover, except if there were Cheese and Steak Regulations. That I would find unacceptable.<br /><br />Merry--And here we were worried about antibiotics in our beef! Oh.

I thought retirement would be a nice and restful ordeal for you but it has clearly taken its toll on your imagination. Are the steaks at the supermarket "talking" to you? Is the cow verse of Old McDonald Had a Farm repeating itself over and over in your head? You clearly need a hobby or Something Else To Do. Perhaps a bunny-sitting service or a job as a new cat introduction overseer, something, ANYTHING to keep you away from this hell of bovine obsession.<br /><br />An idle mind is the devil cow's playground, if you will, so please get help and stay away from Animal Planet. I fear for your long-term mental health if you continue to immerse yourself in this muck.Life at the Funny Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13163009005598548100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15179498.post-9053378576064798962011-08-26T11:46:00.367-04:002011-08-26T11:46:00.367-04:00Danger Cow Haiku
