I post in spurts because it gets boring .. sometimes I go a couple months without looking at the site.

That's where I'm at with it also JS. This is always a good time of year to drop back in because there will be some interesting calving and grass posts...

I believe Heraclitus was one of the originators of this philosophy. Here is this philosophy compared to other famous philosophers and their view of a doughnut. I'm sure you could substitute a cow for doughnut if you wish. ;-)
