Sex With Cows and Other News

I read a lot of on-line news; CNN, Los Angeles Tines, Huffington Post Wall Street Journal and MSNBC to name a few.  Yesterday's Huffington Post seemed particularly weird.  Check out the following news stories:  (I am not making this stuff up):




Here is the actual title of the Story


Reid Fontaine, Michael Jones Accused Of Sexually Abusing Cows

A farmer in Herkimer County, N.Y. couldn't figure out why his cows seemed more anxious than usual. When they weren't producing as much milk as usual, he set up a surveillance camera.What he saw shocked him: two men were rolling in the hay with his livestock,CNYCentral.com reported.The farmer, whose name has not been identified, contacted authorities who conducted their own investigation. As a result, Michael Jones, 35, and Reid Fontaine, 31, were arrested for misdemeanor sexual misconduct, UticaOD.com reported.  Authorities said Fontaine attempted to have sex with several cows while Jones filmed the encounters, according to Syracuse.com.
The pictures of two cow lovers are also in the article. Here is the Link

Here is a story about a republican lobbyist who is trying to get a law passed by congress that would make it illegal for a gay many to play football in the NFL.  As it turns out the lobbyist has a gay brother.  I wonder if he will try to pass a law to keep his brother from working in his job:

I think in the original Alien movie the humans who had alien monsters pop out of their stomachs were called "hosts".  Well maybe its the same thing.

Well enjoy the news.  Maybe your life isn't so crazy after all.
