Anyone who knows me well will understand the nature of this
post and everyone else is just going to think that’s disgusting but who
cares! This is the internet after all
and to a degree, you can blather on about whatever you want. In my book, cows and farts are far more
interesting than Justin Bieber.
I came across this news article today that raised a good
belly laugh. It is of course about cows
and farts, two things frequently obsessed about in our house. Cows because let’s face it, what’s not to like
about cows? They’re large, smelly and
have that adorably gormless bovine look about them that no other creature
has. They lift their tails when they pee
and we find that funny. Tell me you
haven’t stopped by a field of cows and not scanned the horizon to find the one
that’s having a pee? Come on, you know
you have! Cows always make me think of Gary
Larson cartoons which are hilarious.
Farts are never far from the conversation at home. In fact, I’d say the ‘F’ word comes up in
almost every other sentence. I remember
having to ban the kids from using the ‘fart’ word at the table every night
because sooner or later, our conversation always revolved around everyone’s
guffing exploits that day. Believe me, not a lot has
changed all these years later.
Anyhow, back to today’s riveting news article about cow
farts. Sara Nelson of The Huffington Post summed it up most succinctly in her article:
Farting Cows Cause Methane Gas Explosion
On German Dairy Farm

Methane gas produced by 90 farting and belching cows
caused an explosion in a German dairy farm, blowing the roof off and injuring
one of the animals.
A “static electric charge caused the gas to explode with flashes of
flames,” police in the central German town of Rasdorf said in a
statement reported by Reuters.
One cow was treated for burns.

As you can see from the devastation, cows and farts make an
explosive combination. Ultimately, they
could be responsible for the demise of this planet!
