The benefit of cow pills
Hello,
There are many downsides to get-
ting old. But, as the saying goes, "It
beatsthe other option". One of those
downsides is discussions with friends
often center on your health, We no-
ticed it a year or so ago at a bar in
Halliday. Visiting with some old col-
lege friends, whom, decades ago,
talked about sports and girls, and
horses and girls, and weather and
girls, and cars and girls, we now
talked about our physical condition.
We talked about knee surgeries,
and hip replacements. We talked
about stiff backs and compared hear-
ing aids. We related the story of a
guy who was showing his friend his
hearing aid.
"My new hearing aid cost $6000."
"Six thousand dollars! What kind
is it?"
"Oh, about 2:30."
Now what brings this all about is
my Christmas Day. So, bear with me
even if you are not elderly.
Twas the night before Christmas.
Actually, it was two nights before
Christmas that I started to get a
toothache. I mean it was a TOOTH
ACHE! But, being a cowboy, I fig-
ured there is no way I am going to
bother a dentist over the holidays.
So, we went to Carm's for Christ-
mas Eve. I was a lot of fun. We got
there at 4 in the afternoon. I com-
plained about my tooth until 8, then
went to bed, woke Shirley at 3 a.m.
and headed home to feed cows and
whine about my tooth.
I spent the day taking cow antibi-
otics and sipping on cold water. All
of Christmas Day! I didn't bother my
dentist until about noon, when he
would have been sitting down to
Christmas Dinner with his family.
Funny how that pain can make you
selfish. He was kind enough to pre-
scribe some medication I could pick
up the next day.
But by then the cow medicine was
working! I had to have Shirley ad-
minister the pills with a bailing gun
that had previously only been used
on calves, but what the heck, those
pills were huge!
So, it is the dead of winter, and I
am going out at night to check on
calving cows. That is another story
that I may some day relate to you. As
I stumble around in the snow with a
flashlight, being careful not to trip
over a frozen cow turd, in my free
hand I am carrying a glass of ice
water. Really. Flashlight in one hand
and ice water in the other.
And in the morning, when I am
operating the loader, Shirley is nerv-
ous. Because being a good wife, she
is opening gates, cutting twine, and
operating the chute on the processor,
she is aware that a man that is full of
cow drugs, is operating a huge piece
of equipment right behind her.
But, they dang sure worked, and
when this story is done, I am calling
my best friend, the dentist, and mak-
ing an appointment.
Happy New Year! And may all
your teeth be good! Dean
