well, it goes back to the closing days of your little insurgant war, having realised you would win (we were more concerned with the african colonies, much more lucrative) you thought you needed your own language.
so you took a few "u"s out of our language.


Because us Americans can be lazy at times, and that was one of those times. We don't pronounce caramel right, either. :P

Why do I get bored so easily? While we're on that subject... why am I amused so easily?

Noah Webster, when writing his great American Dictionary, actually wanted to re-spell a lot of words, like Thru (in place of through) and Tho (though). He decided against it.

My question is, how did female wild cows exist if they have to be milked every day???

I think the REAL question is 'How many swords could a sword chuck chuck if a sword chuck could chuck swords?'

One of my favorite questions...

'Could Jesus microwave a burrito so hot that he himself couldn't eat it?'


Jesus wasn't god, he had some nifty tricks, but he still managed to die for himself, neither he nor and messiah-esque figure in any religion in history could match up to a 200°C burrito. Except perhaps a figure that fought titans or mountains.

George Bernard Shaw wanted to do a bunch of similar things. "Ghoti" sums up his comments on English spelling and their relation to actual phonetics.

Yes, there were wild cows. They were supposedly rather aggressive, too.

And to answer your question, domestic cows on farms are artificially inseminated so that they will produce milk for their calves (which of course become veal if male). Without calves there to drink the milk, they have to be milked by farmers. But if a cow isn't impregnated, she will not produce milk. For this reason, farmers artificially inseminate their cows constantly, keeping them pregnant for an unnaturally long period of their lives.

It's pretty cruel and one of the answers I give to why I don't drink milk.

Not all farmers do that to their cattle.
Quite a few don't where I live in Canada. And when we get the chance (such as when we're at my farm) we won't buy store bought milk, but fresh farm stuff thats... from a single cow available seasonally. (IE. Spring/Summer... but now Fall/Winter too because cows are quite confuddled because the borders have been mucked up and this has changed how cattle are being processed in Canada).
I won't argue that it's not a cruel practice... because it is (same reason why PMU farms are vile), keeping an animal pregnant and then slaughtering the young because they're "worthless" (which is stupid because they're often well bred animals).
Anyways.
Just...
Not all dairy farmers do that.
Just like how not all chicken farmers keep their chickens in a cage.

I've been attending a course on philosophy and the teacher likes to ask infuriating philosophical questions like:

How do you know that you know?
How do you know that what you know is right?
Does the Authority (law, government, parents, teachers etc) ask us do something because it is right or is something right because the Authority says so?

EDIT: And a fun little philosophical problem...

Quote:
An unrepentant conman and habitual liar was sentenced to death. The judge ordered that on day he was to be killed, he could choose to write a statement which was totally true. If he told a truth, he would be pardoned from execution and instead be imprisoned for 10 years. If he told an untruth, he would be executed.

On that day, the conman wrote the following statement, "I will be executed."

Should he be executed or imprisoned?


(This is similar to another problem: A person says, "I am lying". With this statement, is he lying or telling the truth?)

Try answering those. :roll:

For the liar question.
He would be executed because normally, that would be the truth, BUT since he was writing that he was going to be executed there would be no way to tell, and with the minds of our justice systems.Hes doomed.

Thats sick. Did you honestly need to say that?

Can Athiests get insurance for Acts Of God?

As for the whole milking cow insemination thing, I lived on a farm for 6 years, went to dairy confrences all over the province, and I heard of two people who did that, out of about 7000. Its natural if they have a calf and you milk it every day, it will keep having milk because your going the same thing as the calf.

Beefalos aren't sick, they're simply a different type of cattle meat. It's like saying Angus or Hereford.
Where do you think cows came from?! Wild meat way back in the days!

Pah!

Probably nothing - these hybrids are usually sterile, just like mules.
