We’ve gone round and round on this. To flank **Excalibre** ’s objections, why don’t we chuck the animosity? We all have a lot on our plate, and a little ribbing is OK. We should loin to get along, before there is an accident and someone gets T-boned. Tri-tipping your hats to one another, why don’t you?

GRATUITOUS COW QUIPS.

FBI, here. Moove along.

Don’t go 'way mad, cow.

Poor milksop.

I think his problem was he was feeling castrated and looking for like minds to geld with.

He’s like his old man: a regular cow chip off the salt block.

He’s been under pastuer to leave.

The OP was bullshit. He should be shunned fertilize he told.

He shouldn’t chip where he eats.

If he ever shows up grazing around here again, his grass is ass.
