I couldn’t have said it better myself

The four Right Wing Wackos have found a really nice picture.

Sometimes it ain’t just a coincidence.

No Danger Here- Eat some beef

Unless anyone finds some specific info on the suspected cow in Washington which has Mad Cow Disease, I’m going to say that it’s not a danger, but only from specific standpoint.

Regardless if it came from Canada and had MCD, if it were a Feeder Cattle, there is NO danger of it being put into the meat processing/human consumption chain. Only Live Cattle are slaughtered for human consumption.

Most Feeder Cattle are anywhere between 600 and 800 pounds. At this point, they are merely put into the feedlot to be fattened up to 900 or 1,400 pounds, the approximate slaughter weight. So odds are, it wasn’t near the slaughter stage....

....BUT Feeder/Live Cattle are Steers or Heifers. The cow in question is a Holstein, a milking cow. So I’d like to ask why the media is getting the entire world into a panic over a cow that most likely will not end up on someone’s grill sometime soon?

Big Deal

This new story related to the Valerie Plame CIA-Leak circus, means very little now. I have no sympathy for her...things changed at one point for me.

That point was around the time she posed with her sleaze-o husband & Gore-supporter, Joseph Wilson in an issue of Vanity Fair. This is of course, what every CIA operative jumps at the chance to get.

Plenty of Free Time in Denmark

Prospective Parent- “Oh look honey, they’ve got the Gorm sperm in! And look, they have the Olaf sperm too!”

Why does Denmark, with its 5.3 million people, donate more sperm than any other country?
Good technology and social acceptance, says Cryos founder and chief executive Ole Schou.

Social acceptance I can see, but technology? What do those damn Europeans know that we don’t?
