No Bull!

My bull finally died, so I went to an auction to buy another one. I bought a beautiful black Angus bull for what I thought was a good price.

When I got him home, I released him into the pasture with the cows, hoping for the best. He looked at them, ignored them and started grazing. I figured, give him a day or two.

For two days I watched him. Nothing. I started to think I made a mistake buying him, but I called the vet to come check him out. The vet did a thorough exam and said he was in excellent condition, but a little young. He figured the bull would come around soon enough, but gave me some pills to give him.

After two days of those pills, that bull was going absolutely crazy with the cows, and was like a machine in the pasture. He wouldn't quit, one after another after another.

I have no idea what was in those pills, but they taste like peppermint.
