We are now the proud owners of an Angus bull, two cows, and two little calves. We hope this mini-herd can be turned out onto fenced pasture land within the next year or so, and that we can have a kind of mini-cattle company around these parts--mostly for signature Riley's Farm barbecue beef patrons. Scott doesn't want the herd to get very large, so look for corn-fed-beef of the boutique ranch style soon.
Yesterday, I saw a picture of a very, very rotund guy at San Diego's Earth Day celebration, holding up a sign lamenting beef-eating as the number one cause of global warming. There is a charitable way to look at this: the Almighty writes comedy on occasion, even farce, and it is quite possible that brazen fools are placed along life's road as highway-bollards, warning pilgrims where the sticky idiot-pits are to be found. You see literally thousands of these bollards on college campuses. Sometimes they encircle the place entirely.
Consider Notre Dame. There's a school that is becoming more and more "faith-based" in name only with the administration actually opting for more idiot-bollards than classrooms. Not only does the school invite V----a Monologues onto campus, and deviant film festivals, they've extended a commencement address invitation to the most radically pro-abortion president in American History. Middle class parents: don't send your kids to college. Buy them books.
..and a barbecue beef sandwich.
