Wool is a sense?

HI CARMY!

I guess it is for Rory! LOL!

The wool must have been thick in his ears. At least it wasn’t over his eyes.

Tell him Rory, don’t listen to the rest!

He needs to meditate and find his inner wool…

Or you start to hallucinate.

or you make a scarf

Wool, the ultimate sensory net. (c.f. ”Star Trek: Is There in Truth No Beauty?”)

Clover must taste extra special now too.

I watched a lot of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom and I never heard Marlin Perkins say anything about this phenomenon But who am I to say

Does that include common sense, Rory?

I’ve never seen a cow eat grass that way.

So each little sprig of wool acts like a tiny antenna. When they are all shorn away, Rory has to depend on his ears instead.

Rory got buzzed.
