I Heart Cows!

My father just had open heart surgery and valve replacements, which were swapped out for cow valves, and so today, in honor of my father's life, I celebrate cows and hearts and all things that brought him back to earth! Ah, the mighty and underappreciated cow, grazing quietly until someone harvests her organs, and yet she lives on in a man who, after surgery, saw purple lights flashing and a smiling cow looking down on him. They are saintly creatures, and I for one will never eat another cow.
