I'm Thankful for...Day 12

I'm thankful for Random facts that make me smile.... (And the fact that with God, nothing is actually random!)

Like today at 2:15 pm....it was 11/12/13 14:15 !

What were you doing then?

Me?

I was looking at our first snow of the season.

I was considering:

Other random cow facts:

• Cows can recognize their names (though they may not come when called!).
• Cows have a memory of about three years.
• Cows can sense a storm coming and will lie down. (Which if you've ever heard my theory of the percentage of chance of rain....)
• A cow can climb up the stairs, but cannot climb down. This is because her knees cannot bend properly.
• A cow produces around 200,000 glasses of milk in her lifetime.
•  A cow stands up and sits down about 14 times a day.
• A cow usually spends 6-7 hours in day eating cud and around 8 hours on chewing it.
• Almost all the cows chew at least 50 times per minute.
• An average cow has more than 40,000 jaw movements in a day.
•  Cows can drink up to 35 gallons of water a day.
• Cows do not bite grass; rather they curl their tongue around it.
• Cows have almost total 360-degree panoramic vision. (Otherwise known as "Mom Vision"
• Cows have an acute sense of smell and can smell something up to 6 miles away.
• I miss my Bessie Cow.

Oh, and one random Pig fact

• Pigs can run 11 miles an hour...that's faster than a 6 minute mile!
