Cow Bio - Cassanova Frankenstein

Cassanova Frankenstein is five days old. His (he is a he, or so the pee origins do suggest) poop smells like all new calf poop. Worse than awful. That brown spot on the blanket under his chin is not chocolate. He has a fu manchu made out of stringy black whiskers. His color is purple brown. He is a giant pain in my ass.
He was less lively than the other (now 13 other) calves by far. A day after Cassanova Frankenstein was born I found him sprawled in the pasture back by the woods, no mother in attendance. So I went and found her, which was easy because she's the only brown cow and he's the only brown calf. But she didn't magically fix anything so I had to pick him up and carry him down to the barn, distressed mother in tow.
Ever since, I have been his source of nutrition, as opposed to his bug-eyed mom. He's been too weak/disinterested to find her udder himself. She'll be dry from disuse in another couple of days and feeding him will become my forever project. Pain in ass. Cassanova Frankenstein is a sickly weak runt of a calf. But he's also cute, he does have that going for him. That and his name. Thanks noodle.

One of my favorite things to do is to hit the 'next blog' button over and over again. A lot of them are in languages I can't read. Many of them are attempts to get me to click on their favorite links for viagra or poker. The voyeur in me loves when people post pictures. All of those ugly babies, with glimpses of odd decorating choices in the background. Once in a while I find one that catches my eye and actually makes me want to read. Like yours.

i knew before i even checked that laddie was one of the people commenting on this one. but, she's right.
hello pork. if it wasn't for the picture, i'd be surprised you made it past the words 'cow bio - cassanova frankenstein'. they just scream computer controlled word layer-about sex enhancment advertising blog.

Good call Drew. I totally knew that Laddie would be one of the posts too. I also thought Cindy would be the second one. And the third one would be you making some comment about it. I guess 2/3 ain't bad.

Drew, your impact blogging reaches much further than your ads ever would. Especially that stupid K2 ad.

By the way, do you have a file of that?

I think you're due for a new entry.

moms from mid-ohio seem to like it anyway.

and, "due for a new entry"?
what, a new blog entry, and you're suggesting that i put the k2 ad on as a post?
am i understanding you correctly?

k2 was pre-computer work and it was never scanned in. though, if i had it i'd post it just for you, and to confuse anyone whe reads my blog and didn't ever see it.

No I didn't mean to blog about the K2 ad. Actually, I'm telling you not to blog about that. I was just wondering if you had those. I think I lost them.

You were due for a new entry, I had been checking your blog daily and was disappointed by not seeing a new entry.

Umm, how good does a cup of coffee at pre-smoking ban Moose and Sadies sound right now?

pre smoking ban moose sounds delightful.
i do still have them stuffed into a folder somewhere.
i have boxes and boxes of old ads that will never ever do me any good. mostly because i will never ever look at them again.
