Page 5 - Phantom cow Pleads for Amnesty

“Mooooooooooooooooooooooo Mo Mooo” said the Phantom Cow!

“Ok then we’ll see you tomorrow at 9:00 AM” replied the Mayor. “Click” the Mayor hung up the phone and said; “ok boys, this is our big chance, when that side of beef comes in tomorrow I want you all to rope and bring that cow down and drag her into the county jail and charge her with everything in the book and then we will have fresh beef in time for our annual Bar B Q the Beef Festival”.

Well 9:00 AM rolled around, as the Phantom cow stepped into the Mayors office she saw 20 deputies standing ready with lariats! “oooooooooooo Moo Mooo – Who’s first “ said the Phantom Cow, as she stepped out and back inside with a large box full of boxing gloves and tubes of super glue.

Sheriff Posskicker had just been released from the hospital and the plastic surgery around his lips looked rather nice. As he approached the downtown square the warning sirens was sounding off with that air raid sound and to his surprise the Phantom cow ran out of the court House and headed up the junction toward Old Hwy 66, cars and trucks were blowing their horns as they pulled over to watch her run by.

Posskicker gritted his teeth as he saw a newly restored Ford pickup truck coming toward the heifer, not having the time to jump in front of it, she left hoofed it “POW” and knocked out the left headlight, the driver later reported she was snickering at him as she made her way pass to go home down Old Hwy 66.

Posskicker’s car radio sounded off “Sheriff Posskicker, 20 deputies are being taken to the hospital to have boxing gloves surgically removed from their lips”. Posskicker picked up the handset to give a reply and the radio gave off a loud squalling noise and to his surprise his handset stuck to the metal used to reconstruct his lips.
