Subject: The Lithgow Cow



>
> The only cow in a small town near Mudgee stopped giving milk. The people
> did some research and found that they could buy a cow in Lithgow for $200.
>
> They brought the cow from Lithgow and the cow was wonderful. It produced
> lots of milk all of the time, and the people were very happy. They decided
> to acquire a bull to mate with the cow to produce more cows like it. They
> would never have to worry about their milk supply again. They bought the
> bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow. However, whenever
> the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what
> approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull and he could
> not succeed in his quest. The people were very upset and decided to ask the
> Vet, who was very
> wise, what to do.
>
> They told the Vet what was happening. "Whenever the bull tries to mount our
> cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves forward.
> When he approaches her from the front, she backs off.. An attempt from the
> side, she walks away to the other side." The Vet thought about this for a
> minute and asked, "Did you by chance, buy this cow in Lithgow?"
>
> The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned where they
> bought the cow. "You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we
> got the cow in Lithgow?"
>
> The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye, "My wife is from Lithgow"
