"He's been chasing stuff around for the last three weeks, and he just can't do it anymore...
I know the feeling......................I feel his pain.

"And then there's the smell. Bulls will paw a rutting pit in the dirt a few inches deep and a foot or two wide. They'll urinate in it and splash the scent on their head, their antlers and on the dewlap (or bell) that hangs below their neck.

Except for cheese threads, cheese threads are really cool!
I like cheese.
