Ha! You made my wife and I google Korvettes in Detroit area.
Where was the one you worked at located?
We vaguely remember the Store sign from our wayward youth...
I gotta say-I like cows.
I know they can have a malicious side like any animal, but for large beasts, they seem generally like cud-chewing spectators on life.
All my interactions with them have been pretty good, but I just avoid those areas around any livestock where they can put the power of their leg on you in a fit of ill temper.
I read an account recently where the writer described a teacher in nuclear engineering describing to his students just how dangerous a nuclear reactor, no matter how well run, was.
He said it was like a stubborn mule that hated you. it would wait 30 years for the right time and the right mood, and cave your skull in with a hoof.
Anyway, I treat all livestock as I would a firearm. Always assume it is loaded and ready to go off.
But I sure enjoy looking at cows, chewing their cud, and looking at you in lazy disinterest, just chewing.
I really got tickled by an Internet video a few years back of a guy playing a trombone to call some cows towards him from a field by playing some music out into the field. And all the cows would appear, their heads popping over the terrain, coming into view, their ears erect in interest. As they all approached the source of the music, it wasn’t a stampede. Some were walking with a graceful, measured slowness, some trotting, and a few galloping for only a few quick yards, but they were all converging on him.
The cows began to form in a wide parabola around him, facing him, the fat latecomers jostling in between them to get a better look.
For a split second, you could almost imagine a crowd of people doing the same thing with the same body movements. It really made me laugh. That is how I remember seeing it...now, I will have to go back and find it to see if I remembered it correctly...
So, yeah...I like cows...:)
