  • The problem with calvin C.O.W. is that he would give give birth to one of your other mascots Carlton C.R.A.P.

  • That might be kind of interesting at parades, Catfish.

    What if we had a Herd of Calvin C.O.W.S. cleaning up the mess at the tail end of the parades and immediately behind them would follow a fleet of RC cars dressed up as cowpies?

    That could be kind of fun.

    Thanks for reading.

  • And I think of my little dog TRIG whose veryname is an acronym (Terribly Rambuncious Italian Greyhound). They should have asked him. He's pretty good at the game.

  • Brad,

    If you look closely at the brochure, you will notice they already have a mascot; The Python. There is even a painted python on the side of the truck.

  • I wonder if they got permission to use that picture

  • What a great idea using a COW. In fact since you like exactly like a fat COW, you could be the mascot. You wouldn't even need a costume.

  • I guess if you try to be funny at Brad's expense he gets a little offended and has your comment removed. A little ironic isn't it considering the premise behind this blog. He has even said himself that his comments are just tongue and cheek and those that get offended take themselves too seriously. The irony of it all all right. Maybe the title of the blog would be more accurate if it was "The Hypocrisy Of It All".
