I can't understand why you folks are so amazed...Hell cowshit has been entertainment for kids for as long as I can remember...Why heck, many of us kids (and I'm relating this for the less cultured amongst us) used to find a fresh pile of the mess, wearing either old sneakers or a good pair of the white mud boots you see many dairy farm workers wear and go skiing in it! What you do is step into the outer edge of the fresh deposit, grab ahold of the nearest cow's tail and slap Bossy on the rump. Whoever got the longest tow from the bovine critter won the contest! Now that was fun!!!
