I'm glad some of yall found it amusing. It was intended to tease the line of politcally correct. I have noticed on several occasions that cattle will segragate by color. I have no idea why. If my original post offended you, i'm sorry lighten up.
It is a well-known, biological and physiological fact that one's digestive system functions in a more complete and improved manner when laughter pervades the mealtime, and I will say that my evening repast tonight is certainly being metabolized in a satisfactory manner! :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: :clap: :clap:
My first impulse upon reading Beef11's post was to laugh - and I continued to laugh as the thread progressed into more hilarious posts! You people are VERY comical, darned sharp, and have terrific senses of humor! This was "Tongue in Cheek" at it's best!
Just a moment of solemnity for the purpose of investigating the seeming curious behavior surrounding the process of certain Bovine individuals separating themselves from each other for some ethereal purpose, or purposes. In the study of "Genetics" - which subject has pervaded these posts recently - Mendel's Laws defines it as the
separation of allelic
genes into different gametes during meiosis so that a particular gamete receives only one member of a pair of characters. I think it is highly possible that the various colored bovines are doing what comes naturally and going about the business of separating their allelic genes into diffferent
gametes! Perhaps they know something of which we, with ALL of our human intelligence which has been amassed over the eons, are not cognizant!
Another interesting concept relating to this SEGREGATION PRINCIPLE, based upon irrefutable physiological and biological studies performed at several Agricultural Universities, has revealed that as a result of the "bovine" species being a prey animal as opposed to being a predator, and therefore having their eyes anatomically placed on the SIDES of their heads instead of on the front, - they perceive images and objects as if viewed in a reflective ball - such as these "gazing balls" found in landscaping designs in yards and parks. Whereas predators, humans included, have their eyes placed in such a manner that both eyes look directly ahead, separated by a few inches which allows for focusing with depth perception, thereby permitting the subject to see minute details and, to varying degrees, certain shades of grays or colors, depending on the species. This phenomena could explain the tendency for cows to secede from groups, sets, or units different from themselves! Being Politically Incorrect having nothing to do with it at all.
Perhaps that is the reason that we, as intelligent and perceptive human beings, tend to separate ourselves from - - - - well - - - - that is just a thought.
