JOKE OF THE DAY
A girl realized that she had grown hair between her legs.
She got worried and asked her mom about that hair.
Her mom calmly said: "That part where the hair has grown is called Monkey, be proud that your monkey has grown hair." the girl smiled.
At dinner, she told her sister: "My monkey has grown hair."
Her sister smiled and said: "That’s nothing, mine is already eating bananas."

Ah, the joy of farming/ranching. A good rancher spends a lot of time and money on their herd. A bad rancher...
A buddy of mine married into a "ranching" family out in California that basically turned their cows loose on this vast ranch (that was mostly scrub) and ignored them. The cows had pretty much gone feral, though they'd round up a few each year to sale.
So why on Earth would they bother to even keep cattle? Well as long as they did they were Ranchers and that is a prestigious title out west. Never mind that they made all their money from in town rental properties.

It's funny out west they think its prestigious.
When I meet up with my friends that are ranchers and we talk about why we do it the word insane comes up a lot but never prestigious.
