Regular readers of this newsgroup, alt.cows.moo.moo.moo, will be moost disappointed and moost offended by your redundancy remarks. You have clearly failed to understand that cows are the most productive creatures on planet earth. How many of this planet's citizens would like their cocoa, hot chocolate and hot milk beverages made without milk ? Would you ? The existence of alt.cows.moo.moo.moo is a recognition of the most productive living animal on planet earth. This newsgroup does not have to be filled with the verbiage that appears in all the others - a MOO ! is sufficient, and there are sufficient MOO ! variants to communicate most essential viewpoints. " Milk not Messages " is the motto of the alt.cows.moo.moo.moo newsgroup. Anyway, who _is_ this Moonty Python ? Some sort of snake-in-the- grass ? And what is the productivity of pythons ? You are likely to see cows and milk more often than Moonty Python. > p.s. Check out Douglas Adams' "So Long and Thanks For All The > Fish".

Er...I think the cows would much prefer it if you left instead - there are enough people trying to destroy this planet already. Bye, { } } { { { } } } }{ { { }{ } } ( }{ }{ { ) .- { { } { }} -.

Ok, where are you putting your hands? More to the point, do you refer to "Because you could have hands?" Do your cows have hands? If do, where do they put their hands? How come we have never seen them? (or are udders sneakily hidden mitts?) Hmmm. Ash the Haggis.

Hey Cow-lover,
you might want to append this to your large cowllection
The cow is of the bovine ilk
One end is 'moo', the other 'milk'

Nice to see you are fond of bovine poetry. Here is another poem
which includes your Ogden Nash quotation at the end of the poem:
---------------------------------------------------
To: All those silly lemur people
From: A disgruntled cow
Why is it that you don't like the bovine herd?
When you see a cow aren't your feelings stirred?
What's the matter with you my cold-hearted friend?
Is it the smell of our people, Do we offend?
Why're you so mean, what did we do?
All we ever want is a little cud to chew
My bovine friends will never stand
For all the injustices in this land
Us cows'll overcome your predjudiced views
We'll riot! We'll rally! You'll hear our Moo's!
"But you're so lethargic?" you might say
Don't worry, says I, you'll get your day
So mark my words, and don't forget
A cow is more than a common pet
We won't roll over, we won't play dead
But you'd better watch out or we'll have your Head!!!!
So stand with me, my brothers, and just be true
To your needs and feelings, don't be afraid to moo
Just get out of the closet and do it right now
Go join your brothers, and hug fellow cows
Don't forget: "We all are of the bovine ilk,"
"one end moo the other milk..."
- M. Silva
