<p>WashDad, emeraldkity, and all our other friends who live (or visit) in Washington. Be careful on those roads!!! (I’m envisioning them needing to modify the “falling rocks” warning signs to show little cow figures in mid-flight.
Seriously, though, these people were a split second away from being killed.</p>

<p>When a huge bird just missed my windshield, I thought " Thank God cows do not fly!" Apparently, they do :slight_smile: At least in WA!</p>

3

<p>I haven’t seen anything that has any explanation of how that cow happened to fall off the cliff…was she quoted as saying “Goodbye, cruel world,” as she did a cow-leap? …or maybe she was PUSHED!!!</p>

4

<p>was she driving a convertible?</p>

5

<p>Bovine suicide??? We should not joke, but it is late.
Peace, Out.</p>

6

<p>For a while there it sounded like the Far Side had been revived.</p>

7

<p>I feel sorry for the cow…poor thing didn’t know what hit it. Or what it hit.</p>

8

<p>I wonder if the vehicle was moo-ving at the time.</p>

<p>Hey, I’m pretty sure that in most places if you hit a deer, you can take the meat. I wonder if that’s the case with the cow? Wasn’t there some scene in a Chris Farley movie involving a deer in the back seat of a car?</p>

10

<p>Washington has the highest bovine suicide rate in the nation. It’s an udder disgrace. Maybe the cow was startled by a horn? I need to ruminate on this one.</p>

11

<p>Maybe it was an Oregon cow trying to escape the Tillamook farms. It was tired of giving milk for free and wanted to be bought.</p>

12

<p>Sheesh Washdad - one bad pun is enough - you didn’t have to milk it!</p>

13

<p>ucsd<em>ucla</em>dad, if you have a beef with WashDad, take it outside.</p>

<p>Remind me not to park my minivan under a cliff.</p>

<p>It was actually a plot to kill Dilbert and Dogbert:

<p>(Never published, but Scott Adams is prescient again!)</p>

Six hundred pounds of beef smashed against a minivan from two hundred feet up can’t be very marketable. Which is perhaps why falling beef prices will always be lower. Of course I suspect were the meat useful it never would even make it to market because the couple that was just grazed by it would take it for themselves. I certainly would have had a cow in these circumstances.</p>

<p>There is a roadsign for falling cows. Take a look.
[Watch</a> for Falling Cows!](<a href=“Page not found!”>Watch for Falling Cows!)</p>

<p>Hope this works. I still haven’t officially figured out how to put in websites.</p>

18

<p>^^ haha. That can’t be. Surely the sign was Photoshopped or something. Reminds me of that scene from MP Holy Grail.</p>

<p>Frankly, my big worry about eastern Washington is the giant spitting Palouse earthworm: [Idaho</a> Researcher Finds Rare Giant Palouse Earthworm](<a href=“http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2006/02/060202081127.htm]Idaho”>Idaho Researcher Finds Rare Giant Palouse Earthworm | ScienceDaily)</p>

<p>Palouse earthworms are what you use to fish for Nessie. No worms, no magical sea monsters.</p>
