#mad cows

There are cows along the PCT in a number of places . . . it is not uncommon to hear the clang of cowbells along the PCT in the Trinity Alps and invariably hikers encounter cows in the meadows between Barrel Spring and Eagle Rock just south of Warner Springs.  Last spring feral cows made the news as they terrorized hikers coming out of Whitewater  -- http://pcttrailsidereader.com/post/171697704569/feral-cattle-terrorize-the-whitewater

They can, indeed, be aggressive.  It is rare but sometimes they just do not want to relinquish the trail.  Here’s a video of cows pushing back as a hiker heads toward Warner Springs from the south:

@eddiebinge reviews: Mad Cows (1999)

Eddie plays: Constable (IMDb link)

In Mad Cows, new mother Maddy (Anna Friel) is caught putting a bag of frozen peas down her bra (to cool her sore breasts) in a London shop. After being arrested for theft she is questioned by two police constables, one of whom is Eddie!

During the questioning Constable Eddie eats (and licks) some ready salted crisps and seems more interested in them than Maddy. When a detective arrives for further questioning, Eddie fetches him a chair and proceeds to stand in the corner with his arms folded for the rest of the scene.

Favourite moment:

The unexplainable crisp licking

Cuteometer rating: [2]

Constable Eddie was spooked by plastic cups being thrown about and eager to assist the detective on the case. Oh and he looked absolutely adorable in a policeman’s uniform. 

Bingo score: [2/9]

☑ Cops & Robbers ☑ One scene cameo

Our rating:  ★ 

As Eddie wasn’t in any other scenes we didn’t watch the film but if the 4/10 IMDb rating is anything to go by we’re glad of a lucky escape!

I thought I was over zombie books. Then I read Paolo Bacigalupi’s Zombie Baseball Beatdown and I realized I had to own up.

My name is Mrs. Gillespie and I LOVE ZOMBIE BOOKS.

Rabi, Miguel, and Joe are out playing baseball when they notice a really, really, REALLY bad smell coming from the meatpacking plant near the field. Some investigation and a run in with some rather tenacious people and cows…
