I mean, REALLY?? What am I?? Some kind of freak, angry cow magnet???
Today on the way home from picking up DD from the bus, I come around the corner and here is one of the neighbor's angus heifers down on her belly, one leg caught in the fence and stretched straight out behind her. One of the local power company guys was there and he was trying to get her out of the fence. When he pulled up, there were two Pitt Bull dogs chewing one her. Poor thing. Her ears were just shredded, and she had a nasty laceration behind her left ear. I immediately called the owners and they hit the road, but they were about a half an hour away. Well, power guy cut the wire and she was free. She tried to get up, but her hind leg wouldn't support her and she fell down in the ditch along the road. Power dude leaves, and I figure I'll hang out with her and keep an eye out on the traffic until she either gets up or the owners get there. She is black and it is dusk. So, here comes a truck and I put my arm up and motion for them to slow down. Sure enough, about then she tries to get up. And succeeds. And asks me if I wanna fight. I say, "No, honey, I don't wanna fight with you".... She replies with, "Too bad, so sad!!" Sure enough, she nailed me, and backward I went, head first into a wood fence post. That is the second smashing that the back of my head has taken in the last 1.5 years over these hacked of bovines. You know the old saying, no good deed goes unpunished....
Needless to say, most of the neighborhood is "hunting" at this point, and I am going to get up close and personal with my chiropractor. Wait 'til I tell him that I got nailed buy a cow again. He will get a TON of mileage out of this one!! Eeee gads..... I don't think I have enough ibuprophen.....
