Longhorn


Longhorns from a Texan farm - dedicated to Lynell, aka Tennesseecowgirl!

Hope I didn't disappoint you, I know you were expecting a TX barn, but I was interested in cattle, not barns... and as a matter of fact, when I took this shot, I said in my mind "Lynell is gonna love this!"... hope I wasn't wrong!
But don't worry, we'll go again over there, and I'll pay more attn to the barns!

Got an old joke for today, a joke that was a big hit at that time, during the communist regime, a joke that could put you behind bars if you were telling it in a public place.


Nixon, Brezhnev and Ceausescu (former Romanian dictator - for those who don't know) were waiting at the Heaven's gate to enter.
St. Peter, the heaven's gate guardian, take the the former American president for the interview.
- How many bad laws did you approve during your term? asks St. Peter.
- Two, answers Nixon.
St. Peter takes a needle and punches twice Nixon's butt.
- Now you can go, says St. Peter.
Next in line is Brezhnev.
- How many bad laws did you approve during your term? asks him St. Peter.
Brezhnev seems to think a little bit, then answers.
- Eleven!
St. Peter takes a needle and punches eleven times Brezhnev's butt.
- Now you can go! says St. Peter.
Now while Ceausescu was inside for the interview, Nixon and Brezhnev were talking about what just happened to them.
- How many punctures you got? asks Brezhnev.
- Two! How about you?
- Eleven!
- That's ok, says Nixon, I'm afraid that St. Peter will need a sewing machine for Ceausescu!

  18. Looking good! Parent supervising two youngsters that don't know they are long horns yet. OK, Denise (MrsRatbag) is associated with park benches, now our Tennesseecowgirl is associated officially with barns. Very good.

  20. The one looking to the left is saying, "Hey, what should we do next?" haha... we have great commercials in California - the one about California cows being happy cows. We are definitely "cow happy" here in this state. Excellent capture.
