Question

Bovine Musings

Last year, I picked a few images from Adobe Stock to use to answer questions on the forum. I spent some time making my decisions, because people are sometimes so stressed by the time they get to us that I wanted to lighten the mood. When I get a clipping path question in InDesign, I use this cow. I have the clipping mask ready to go and I've used him repeatedly. I even think he ended up in one of my "Something for the Weekend" contributions. In short, I am very fond of this particular cow.

Fast forward to this week, and to Republican congressman Devin Nunes' lawsuit against Twitter and a few specific parody accounts. One is @DevinMom and another is @DevinCow. Of course I checked out (and maybe followed) the cow account.

I had no idea I was using Devin Nunes' own cow for my clipping path answers. I'm glad the cow is finally receiving the fame he deserves—because he is adorable— but I guess it's time to look for a new clipping path image.

    is it possible to upload a mp3 audio file ( 30 seconds or so ) to this forum ??

    I could get out guitar, blow off dust, tune it, play the chorus and record with H4N as wav, convert to mp3 with audition...

    ??

    Well, forget that idea re: a sound file. I sang the chorus ( mooooooooooove along stuff ) … and my voice cracks in the mooo sound, and I sound like a cow that is suffering from severe indigestion !

    hehe. Despite working on sets for years, involving shooting stuff, I have always been freaked out by being in front of camera. I could record the chords...and hum and stuff, but I doubt if anyone has a picture of me since high school graduation.

    pretty funny.

    Trom, the first two lines sounded promising. The third one is getting kinda too sad...keep thinking !

    Don’t be hasty. Take stock of the situation first. If you stop worrying, you might even find it amoosing.
