Tuesday, August 26, 2008

Have you ever noticed that herds of grazing animals all face the same way? Images from Google Earth have confirmed that cattle and other herd animals tend to align their bodies in a north-south direction.

My theory of why herd animals line up N-S is evolutionary.

If they faced East or West, the sun would get in their eyes.

Not a good thing if you are subject to predation by wolves and cats.

That's exactly what i was gonna say.

Copy cows.

My dog says the bells in her head die down when she faces south.

Good, practical explanation.

Plains Indians set their tipis so the doorway opened up towards the east. Greeting Father Sun in the morning? Sure, okay. It also tends to warm things up a bit faster.

I do like the sound of that, but most herd animals are also prey animals who tend to have their eyes on the sides of their heads.

I sleep north to south. But when I wake up I am usually pointing west.

Do you mean your needle is pointing west?

When I wake up my needle is pointing up!

Hey when you get "old" any which way your needle *points* is just fine...

Also, facing east or west maximizes the sun (heat) they get in the winter.

If I were a cow and I was going to sit down with a bunch of other cows facing north, I'd face south... better view.

Jesus Christ.

How much time did these douchebags spend on Google Earth to figure this out?

Its not like this behavior is a newly discovered magical Secret of the World.

FACT!

I've always noticed that cattle tend to stand with their faces into the wind.

That explains this site.

"That explains this site."

Not really. But it does explain why your head is shoved up your ass, cabron.

Famous Russian scientist, Dr Cutyercockoff has discovered that when a penis is fully erect that the swollen head favors the East. Dr. C says this is due to the fact that the right nut sags lower than the left one.

and they ask me why I drink

Maker's Mark, it's not a question.

Or, as in the song "Panama Red," Maker's Mark is back in town.

I thought it was because you were right handed.

Zat,

That is a bad ass story; a change from the whole "Hillary is an insecure bitch jealous of Obama" story lines.

And I know you're thinking that if there is design in nature, there must be a designer...

Four and one half years, fifty three million, three hunred four thousand, two hundred one dollars, and twenty-three cents. A lot of Professors are jealous cause it WAS government funded! A little less free money, huh?

It's the LEAD in the milk, magnetic you know, pulls those bags North if above the Quater, and South if their not!

Keeps'em from sagging though! The same experiment was used with different BAGS, but proved inconclusive, and rather dangerous to the experiment controllers!

Explains Katherine Harris, speaking of cows...
