What is it? CCXXII

On Thu, 6 Mar 2008 23:30:12 -0500, with neither quill nor qualm, "Lee Michaels" quickly quoth: "DonkeyHody" wrote Oh Ye of Little Faith! Don't tell the folks at PETA, but these things are still in use today. This one attaches a little differently, but the outcome is still the same. http://www.cattlestore.com/pc-1163-1...lf-weaner.aspx That's inhumane to mama cow, sir! How would your girlfriend like one in your nose? You'd never kiss, lick, suck, or slurp again. =:-0 That is the new fangled version. The ones that we used were made of metal and had a point on one end. You jammed it through the wall between the nostrils and slipped a pin in it. It became a metal ring through the nose with some teeth on it. So you had a ring through the nose which would come in handylater in life if you needed to move the cow. a rope through the ring made any livestock totally obedient. That's less inhumane. -- The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man. -- Euripides |
