+1. It will make things easier when you retire and we open our winery.

At least it's less boring up there now than when I went there, but watch those summers when the cows stink up the southwest part of campus.

Awesome!! I can show Pio how to go cowtipping!

 

[Piobaire]

Oh, there ain't nothing I don't know about mucking stalls. But again, I vowed 20 years ago, I'd never do farm work again.

Screw that, you can party with the fistulated cow.

Who said anything about cleaning stalls? I'm talking about going out at night while the cows are sleeping and tipping them over and trying to run over the barbed wire fence before the farmer wakes up with his shotgun loaded. Coming from a small farming town, I'm sure you can see how entertaining this was on a late Friday night.

Pio was Hercules in a former life.

No, no 12 labours and no cleaning the Agean stables.

Wow dude. You come in here and with one simple post try to dismantle my future cow-tipping experience with Pio, huh? Not cool.

I'm sure he'd appreciate the on campus dairy bar serving fresh milk, cheese, and ice cream.

And no joke, my friends and I had "X high school cow tipping team" t-shirts made up (back in high school, obviously). There was no clip art to support our cause, so we had to hire an artist. I don't wear t-shirts any more and thus don't have this shirt ... but it was epic. I wore it more than my varsity ice hockey stuff.



Oh, and what's a not-NYC priced hotel/motel/BB up in Sonoma? I'm debating a trip out west sometime this summer.
