OMG, Vicky, I haven't laughed that hard in ages. Thank you. If anyone (any adult) missed that post on the Berner-L #4123, it's well worth going back to read (even if only for the chuckle you'll get).
And Vicky, I'd like to take your topic on a brief, non-berner detour. Here in the wilds north of Billings, Montana, I've been a tad alarmed at the number of wierd animal sounds coming occasionally from the forest around us. This is especially alarming at night. My Tibetan Mastiff goes nuts over it sometimes. So I've actually gone out to find the source of the noises but without success. Upon casual inquiry of some longtime locals, one being the cattle rancher whose property adjoins ours, I learned its been rutting (mating) season for many species of the local wildlife. Thankfully, I'd already lived through his annual cattle breeding season with my only incident being when I had a superb 'mexican stand-off' with a thoroughly aroused bull in the middle of my road. It was a long few minutes before he decided that (1) I wasn't a cow and (2) I wasn't another bull. Whereupon my hubby said, of course, 'Welcome to the country'. I'm told the noises from the forest should stop soon. Sigh. Cheers, Esther Wilson http://www.wilpowerkennels.com __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
