Still Crazy About Cows

If you’ve been following my blog for any length of time you will have noticed I have a thing for cows. I don’t know why, except I’ve been around them off and on for most of my life and as a result I’ve written a cow joke book, which, by the way, gets the nicest rejection letters. Mike Allegra has even pitched in and contributed a cow drawing. In my quest to come up with even more cow jokes for a sequel to the first cow joke book (thinking positive here) I came across a website that has 100 words related to cow.

My intent is to become inspired and come up with some original bovine blockbusting humor. Here is the site:

And here are a couple of udderly hopefuls:

#74: freshen–related to cow, as in coming in to her milk

Why did the cow take so long getting ready to leave the barn?

She had to freshen up first.

Okay–

How about this one then?

#45: kine–archaic plural of cow

Why are cows such a popular animal?

They are the best kine of animal on the farm.

Okay–

Maybe Cow Too will be a bit longer in the draft phase.

In the mean time, I keep sending out my udderly wonderful cow joke book to publishers and editors, as it will behoove me to get it published sooner than later as it cud drive you all crazy hearing me milk it for all its worth.

I’m sure once a publisher realises how great your cow jokes are, things will moove along quickly for you.

  Not only cold, but dirty as I noticed the Holestein.

If you write the book and I illustrate it, will our residuals be split half and half? Or will I only get 2%?

  2% as in milk content because the writer gets the creme off the top–wait, the agent does…

    Hold on. Are you trying to skim a little extra for yourself?

    It’s sounds more like you’re trying to churn up a heap of trouble.
