Laser-Hating Cow story!

Apparently cats and dogs aren't the only ones.

So here I am, shining my awesome, incredible SF-501B 1.5 watt blue into the sky and on the ground. Suddenly, I hear hooves. I look and hear a ear splitting "MRROAAAAAA!". About 100 feet away, a cow had stampeded across acres of pasture and was at the fence, bucking and trying to attack the laser beam, about 50 feet outside of the fence pointed over the horizon.

The cow continued screaming for 15 minutes. I did not hit this cow! Why the heck...?

Anyway, stay away from cows, laser enthusiasts! :D

Quite the visual story, I'm surprised you didn't use a green laser.

Cows have very limited color vision, if any at all. So i second the suggestion that this cow thought is was about to beamed up a again, and wouldn't have any of it :D

The cow has been abducted and probed before.
He thought it was happening again...
Wouldn't you do the same?

Cows are female unless they have udder problems

It was part of the last abduction...

Well if I or family or friends were abducted, I would want to beef up my security and protection.

That pun is so good it's sinful Pi :p I finally understood.



Found this, so what am I to believe?

Like all cows, bulls have deuteranopia, meaning they cannot discern red and green colors and instead see shades of yellow or blue. When it comes to bullfighting, people are often under the impression that the red color of the matador's cape is what angers the bull in the arena, and, symbolically, red is a color that denotes anger or passion. In reality, the fluttering movement of the cape is what agitates the bull and causes it to charge the matador, not the color. The animals are more incited by white or blue capes, but the red serves a particular purpose in the arena: the color masks any blood that the creature may spray while injured.

Holy Cow! That's a great video if it's real. Cattle mutilations are still ongoing and have happened in all 50 states and in many countries around the world, usually no one sees or hears anything except sometimes people have seen strange lights over the area. There are many good documentaries on the subject and the subject is discussed on radio frequently.

I don't know if that video is real, but if it is, I'm glad they are after the cows instead of us. I've watched a few documentaries on the subject, appears there is harvesting of genetic materials. Genetics is the ultimate tech.

They reported the cow was later found drained of it's blood. Yum, Angus blood! Maybe there is something to the vampire legend. For some, cow pies are a place to find molecular keys to open new doorways, I've never tried searching for those for personal consumption, but remember seeing them when growing up on a farm, having no idea what they could be used for. Now we are getting astray from topic, but it does relate to cows.

E: Oh, I had to come back, never saw a bull fight, don't think I'd want to go to one.

Do you really think that is what they are after? I guess it could be food related, maybe the aliens raise cattle on their planets and they found us and saw that our cattle are good and they take genetic material and are experimenting to create hybrid cattle.

I think they are taking samples to test to see how much the radiation and chemical pollution and GMOs are destroying the environment. They want to know if we are going to kill ourselves off or make the planet uninhabitable.

Are you talking about Liberty Caps? I tried that about 35 years ago, I wouldn't today, but if your young and adventurous I recommend extreme caution.

And now for something completely different.

A man staggered into the emergency room with a concussion, multiple bruises, and a five iron wrapped around his neck. Naturally the doctor asks him what happened. "Well, it was like this" said the man. "I was having a quiet round of golf with my wife, when at a difficult hole, we both sliced our balls into a pasture of cows. We went to look for them, and while I was rooting around I noticed that one of the cows had something white in it's rear end. I walked over and lifted up the tail, and sure enough, there was a golf ball with my wife's monogram on it stuck right in the middle of the cow's butt. Thats when I made my mistake." "What did you do?", asked the doctor. "Well, I lifted the tail, pointed, and yelled to my wife, "Hey! This looks like yours!"
