That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for January 31, 2019

Bessie decided to finally confront the young woman who kept stealing her lunch.

“So I called her an old cow and told her where she can go. Um, she’s your mother isn’t she?”

She finally figured out “Stay”, but “Sit” was beyond her.

It was even harder to get the cow to milk itself.

Sarah tried out her faith healing on cows

Motivation can be great teacher… have you tried punching it…?

Having extremely poor vision, Holly begins to wonder why she has trouble selling her German Shepherds on Craigslist.

How will you jump over the moon if you can’t even jump over this creek?

‘Blind Mabel’ beginning to get suspicious about the Shire horse she purchased from the local merchant.

How now, brown cow?

Now that Christmas is over, Jennie waves goodbye to the other seven milking maids.

Millie the Milkmaid reassuring the calf that she left enough milk in the cow for it.

“Miss, I’m beginning to think you’re exploiting my mother..”

Starved for conversation she talked to the cow for 15 minutes.

Cows can do dressage. You don’t believe me? Just Google it.

Thanks a lot! Now, I can’t get this song out of my head! “Bessie, the heifer, the queen of all the cows! In the morning she gave pasteurized, at night she gave homogenized—Bessie the heifer, the queen of all the cows!”

She hoped to get chocolate milk from the brown and white cows…

But you should see the cow dance on its hind hooves.

Sure, jump in the stream! If she said ‘Jump off a cliff’, would you do that too?

Young Bessie wondering why that human stole her lunch.

She could be rich and famous if only she could get Bossie to do the Cow Cow Boogie!

no! you can’t have a drink, get it the way I did, from the cow, not the bull.

But a cow will stand right on your foot without being asked.

Mary traded her lamb for a calf on craigslist. She was hoping to keep doing exchanges until she worked her way up to a husband.

“Not now lady. I’m not in the moo-d.”
