Another year is coming. The mad cow thing is quite a read. Moo cows fed ground up sheep for the protein are now infected with the fatal discease. Quite a read actually, seems like canniblism for herbavours can lead to nasty things. My image of herds grazing on a country farm, giving us their milk and cheese from grass will never be quite the same. I see them now attacking flocks of innocent sheep. Huge ugly bovines with slaughter in their eyes and blood trickling from their big floppy lips as they massacre innocent lambs braying for their moms. Milk coming out tainted pink with lamb blood. Who would have thought the gentle cow could turn into such a monster.

I’m taking a course in mystery writing. The class is fun and thought provoking, something to get my mind off the killer herds of cows on their march to war.
