        In case someone is not familiar with the German/Pennsylvania Dutch saying, “Was ist los?”, it is usually asked as a greeting with a meaning of, “What’s up?” or “What’s happening?” or “What’s wrong?”. However, the literal translation of “vass iss los” means “What is loose?”. The caption is a cute and very fitting play on words.

      “Milking time!”

      This is what occurred every day at my nextdoor neighbor’s farm when it was milking time. Traffic was stopped until all of the cows were safely herded across the road to the barn for milking time, and the reverse back to the pasture after milking time was finished! LOL. This brought back wonderful memories!

      Cows?

      Hey, can you move those cows a little faster. I have places to go.

      Cows Contests and other ‘moo-tive operandi’

      01 “Let my people moo”
      02 “Some people take their fifteen children down this road with less aggravation and poop”
      03 “She memorized her minister husband’s sermons and tried them out on the cows before meeting”
      04 “Not a single word was used, nor force, just the intensity of confidence, self assurance, and body language, she was the known as the Amish Cow Whisperer”
      05 “Some’a youz ain’t coming back.”
      06 “You’re father didn’t just buy all of them, did he?”
      07 Daughter in the background “They followed me home, can we keep ‘em?”
      Mother in the foreground: “NO.”
      08 “What you don’t see is she’s got a remote control which makes herding all the more enjoyable. Occasionally she makes them do figure-eights in the back fields”
      09 [With the Amish lady’s camera hidden from view] “Okay girls, say cheese, er, I mean smile”
      10 “Let me take you down, cause I’m going to; Bovine Fields..”
      11 “This is the Amish version of the old ‘Space Invaders’ video game” [or]
      11b “Amish Tetris”
      12 “If only the runsprunga aged boys where this easy to control”
      13 “During the daily ritual, she didn’t like to sing while herding, but the day before she heard an older Englishman at the marketplace listening to an Oldies radio station, and this morning got the lyrics of a song changed in her head so she found herself singing ‘if I had a heifer I’d heifer in the morning’!”
      14 “Moo, moo, moo, all day long, moo, moo, moo while I sing this song…”
      15 “I love the smell of bovine in the morning”
      16 “She still had the pitter patter of little feet in her life, only they where four per set.”
      17 “If only they moved fast enough that I could use that bike.”
      18 “Life in the cow-lane”
      19 “Mrs Lapp stared down the true Amish Mafia, the cows, and one the day.”
      20 “Worse than Englisher cows, you bought this herd from Moo-non-ites, take ‘em back”

      I have a Canadian long weekend, so I have a little extra free time, I might come up with more. If I can, I guess I’d like be considered for the draw. I’d to read a back issue of The Connection to see what its like.
