Also, when driving past a cemetery: "Know how many people are buried there? ... All of them."
Thanks for posting. It did bring back memories of my dad.

(8,542 posts)12. Ha! I grew up in a dairy farming town and there were cows everywhere.
When I was a teenager, I spent one summer away, in Boston. My family looked at me like I had three heads when, on the way back, I exclaimed, "Cows!" when we got close to home and passed some in a field.
I'm a Dad.
On another note, I'm also an Aristocrat.
