Conversation with a Cow.

Hello, young miss.

Moo

You’re very beautiful, aren’t you?

Moo

Are you going to come a bit closer and let Jeffrey scratch your ears?

Moo

No? Isn’t Jeffrey your favourite person today?

Moo

Oh, come on. You’ve got such lovely eyes.

Moo

OK, then. See you tomorrow.

Moo

Bye.

Silence

This conversation actually happened. I suspect the trick to understanding cow language is to learn the tonal nuances of the moo phonetic.

haha that is hilarious especially since my farmer friend is a cow one...every single conversation has cows on the brain! But fortunately it is more interesting than just a MOO...for a bit anyway, lol

anyway today I got a brilliant idea...I'm gng to infiltrate the farming scene by going to one of those cow shows(with the help of my friend and scope for the improbablye likelihood that I can find a hot young dark brown haired blue eyed nice respect for women cultured one with old fashioned values...cos I still have that issue where I NEED-WANT to live on an acreage/desolate piece of land but would not know how to survive...hence the need of a farmer, lol

Maria: Yeah. I think a bunch of thistles might work better.

Zhen: I'd be interested to hear how you find the cow market. I've been to several and they put me off the farming industry a bit.

I talk to my dogs the way I talk to people. I explain why they can't get out of cage, have my food etc. They look in to my eyes and look away.

It becomes my behaviour to talk to them.

I think what happens when we talk to animals, Mei-shan, is that we're communicating the only way we know how - with language. But in so doing, we also generate some sort of universal communicative energy which animals can often pick up and understand. That's my theory.
