Started by someone at RIT, these COW pictures are now classics. The newest ones sent to me are at the bottom. This is the complete edition - if anyone has any to add, by all means, send them in! Or try your pen at drawing these bovine creatures.

I'll spare (rib?) you the cow puns this time - they were milked udderly dry last time.

The following three cows were supposed to be appearing with the Celebrity Cows pictured above... However, I found out that they were sitting around a bar getting drunk discussing what exactly is art. The cows' conclusion: Art is a bunch of Bull(s).

Sorry, but I couldn't resist, Hawk, Sesquipedalianite and Head of Heffer Control.

Seeing as how it is Spring Break Season, I thought I would share with you some Vacation Ideas for any of you Cows out there on the Net who don't know where to go for some fun. - Steve "Hawk" Schultz Head of Heifer Control

Well, first of all, there are theme parks and historic sites:

O__O \_|_/ (oo) (oo) /-------\/ /-------\/ / | || / | || * ||----|| * ||----|| ~~ ~~ ~~ ~~ Cow at Disneyland Cow visiting the Statue of Liberty

There's the fun and warmth of the southwest:

And on the other coast, while the water might be a little chilly up north, it is still exciting:

)\ (__) / \ (oo) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cow swimming at Amityville (Where Jaws was filmed, for those less educated)

For those who believe in Winter Wonderland's, the Rockies present excitement galore:

* \ \ |\ \ | \ (__) \\|| \(oo) \||\ \\/ ~~ \|| \\ || \\|| \|| ~~ \\_ \_ Cow skiing a Black Diamond at Aspen

And of course, the traditional Spring Break spot, where you can go for expensive beer and cheap sex:

Or, for those who have trouble picking up members of the opposite sex:

Thanks very much for distributing your cow canon. I got a copy via a friend who has access to netnews, which I do not. I ran off a copy to send to some friends who recently moved away, to a suburb of Detroit, and are not on the net at all. I thought they should have some cows appropriate to their locale. Herewith are my apocryphal cows:

(__) (oo) /-------\/ / | || * ||----|| OO OO Detroit cow

\__\ o (oo) ____\___\/ / | || * ||----|| OO OO Mustang cow

(__) (oo) *+-------\/ ||______|| ||----|| OO OO pickup cow

(__) (oo) /----\/ / || *-||----|| OO OO fastback cow

\_||_~ (*||*) /-------\||/ / | || * ||----|| OO }{ teenager's cow

The following has nothing to do with Detroit, but surely belongs among the canonical cows:
