WARNING YOU MAY BE OFFENDED

Hello Silverhorners, members and guests and visitors.
Todays View from the Silverhorn Mountain may be a little graphic and offensive, so if you are sensitive you may want to go surf the net for a little while, at least until the rest of us are done here.

Apparently, cow parts have been found in the woods in Nova Scotia. The news guys are all upset about it...no really, they are wound up.....Cow parts, in the woods....probably behind a.....farm...uh-oh. They are calling it a Bloody Boneyard, I think a Bloody Bovine Boneyard.

I know what you are thinking and that is exactly what I am thinking....I am thinking cult. Probably a Cow Cult. (I read somewhere that they are growing in popularity since Mad Cow Disease was first discovered) I suppose they (the Cow Cult, or the Cult of the Cow) have been stealing cows for sacrifice and when they are done with them...well, I suppose you gotta do something with the leftover parts. However, as the investigation is ongoing, I will refer to the cult as alleged, I don't want to be sued by the Cult of the Cow....(oops, alleged Cult of the Cow)
Cows must be hard to steal because they also found some deer hooves and some smaller carcasses. I dunno about you, but this clearly indicates to me that there may be more than one cult involved. Man! Those cults.

It just occured to me, Pam is gonna be upset !! This might distract her from the seal thingy. We gotta keep this quiet...She is going to be pretty pissed off with us Nova Scotians. Might not come back....

I am the first to admit I don't follow the rural news very often, and the only farm close to the Silverhorn is now a paintball battlefield and campground. I think the barn is a gift shop. I have no idea what happened to the farmer or the cows he had, I thought they all retired to Florida, but now I am wondering about the cows.... I guess it is understandable why I hadn't noticed that cows were disappearing from farms, I always have trouble counting them in the fields. However, I have to apologize because I pride myself on keeping you informed about the important stuff. This one slipped by me, sorry about that.

Of course, this is pretty big news, and makes a graphic picture, especially when the news guy says, "We have to warn you, these pictures are graphic...and may be disturbing to some viewers" before they show the pictures. No kidding. Cow parts dumped in the woods could hardly be anything but graphic and disturbing.
A warning of graphic pics is one line guaranteed to make us all look up from our supper to watch. ( that's why I popped it in the opening line of this blog) I almost missed the report, I had gone out to the kitchen for another hot dog when the announcer read the warning.

It looks like the alleged cult has been dumping the extra parts there for a long time, must be a whole herd of cows. Of course, there are only parts left, I suppose you might find enough stuff to reconstruct a couple of complete cows. Gil Grisham and his CSI Team are flying in tonight to assist in the investigation, I think this one might be messy. The FBI profilers from Criminal Minds turned down our request for help, seems they already got enough on their plate.....ta-dum! (Sorry, sometimes I just can't help it). A good samaritan business owner, Mom's Discount Burger Chalet has offered to clean things up but currently the area is wrapped in crime scene tape.

On another note, tonight I installed a new lock on my father's bathroom door. Nothing to it, ripped that sucker out of the package and removed the old lock and presto, job done. He was pretty pleased with it and went right in and locked it, to try it out....seems I had it together backwards...the locksmith is coming tomorrow morning to get him out. It's unfortunate the bathroom is so small, he won't be able to lay down to sleep, however he will be able to sit. He seemed happy when I left, after all, he was in the bathroom, my mother, on the other hand........

Did ya happen to catch the guy on the news tonight who won the lottery, 7.5 million. Went to the mall, looked at cars, clothes and other stuff and finally and bought himself a candle....a candle.....$2.40......all the guy wanted was a candle.....geez I got candles here at the lodge I would sell him....they aren't any good to me. Since the dirt burning incident my wife won't let me play with matches...
