Dowries




Dave: Would you rather have me give you an engagement ring or give your dad a bunch of cows?

Sarah: An engagement ring, because my dad would just eat the cows and we'd have nothing to show for it.

She is too beautiful to eat. You did the right thing. Only maybe we could have had fresh milk.

hahaha My sister, Sarah was proposed to with cows. I believe there were ten of them. We didn't get to keep the cows, however. Oh well. :D

that is AWESOME.

And a good man your dad is, Gibs, bcause any person in their right mind knows a cow is good for its meat!

plus, the ring probably looks a lot prettier on your finger than a chopped up cow. Eh?

Looks like a Swiss cow.

Helena, I think you're right. The caption in the Wikipedia article from which I borrowed the picture calls it "A Swiss Braunvieh cow wearing a cowbell."

Did you specify how nice the cow would have been before asking the question?
