Thanks to Prudence for pointing this one out to me...

A Michigan couple wasn't hurt when a cow fell off a cliff and landed on their minivan.
The video report is here (http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/offbeat/2007/11/07/cow.drops.onto.minivan.king).

I wonder if the insurance will go up due to the higher steaks from driving on that slab of road.

Damn domestic Kobe beef.

But seriously, this is a rather tender subject, don't you think?

Nephythys

Well that's bull-

I wonder if the accident set off their horn?

I bet they hoofed it out of there!

So, these people were out, pasture bedtime, making hay, and a cow piles onto their van? Who tipped the cow? I'd say they're half and half to blame. Two per cent, at the very least.

It probably wanted to get in, but there was no more ruminant.

Room in it?

Get it?

I was just thinking, had it been a horse, a lot of people might be saying "Oh, the poor horse." But since it was a cow it's like "Haw haw, stupid cow."
:D

What a bunch of bull. I don't want to start a beef about this thread, but I will no longer kowtow to the likes of y'all and steer clear from this discussion. I'm hoofing it out of here. Moooving right along.

Would you say that the minivan is now a cattle car?





And... When they phoned for help, was it a cattle call?

Gemini Cricket

They should have just steered clear...

Actually, my first thought was "poor cow", but the thread had already taken a punny turn, so I decided to run with the herd.

They should have opted for the ABS ("Anti-Bovine System") package.

Introducing the 2008 MPV, built to surpass 5 star rating in the government's new Front Bovine Impact Safety standards. (I'm at work using Paint, cut me some slack on the sloppy photochop job)

No way... you actually have a sign for "watch for falling cows"? That's better than our "watch for flying immigrant children" signs! (or is that just a really good Photoshopping?)

Well, usually when cows fall it isn't a direct hit, they just sort of graze the side of the car on the whey down.

Totally. To drive is human; to flatten SUVs, bovine.

Yep, it is an actual sign as you enter the top of the Kern Canyon, on Hwy 178. There was another one at the other end of the Canyon, but it was stolen.

I know exactly where it is...at least it was there before they started blasting away at the canyon again.

The first time I saw it I laughed so hard at the thought of falling cows. Then a cow fell, and it was no longer that funny. It doesn't happen as often as it used to.
