What's in my head

This is the home of your average girl in her early 30s making her way in the big city...Not really. I have thoughts. Now I have somewhere to put them.

Mad cow

I knew it, cows can kill!

LAGOS (Reuters) - Nigerian police arrested a cow that killed a bus driver who was urinating on a highway, a police spokesman said Thursday.
The horned African cow, which was wandering stray in the Ojo district of Nigeria's biggest city Lagos, also injured several bystanders after killing the man.
"The cow went mad, ran into a bus driver and knocked him down. Efforts to revive him were fruitless," said Lagos police spokesman Olubode Ojajuni.
...

Granted cows can be cute — especially those black and white dairy ones — but I don't need to be warned twice. From now on this is how all visits to farms will be blocked: me, 10 feet of field, farmer, sturdy fence, 50 feet of field, great big cow (is 60 feet enough? How fast can cows run?).
And to think people actually laughed at me for not wanting to get too close to a field of cows. Who's laughing now?...Not the Nigerian bus driver. No, not him because big Besey killed him!

    This is the reason I'm against vegetarianism! After all, they'd eat US is they had the chance!
