Black an' Gus


My mom recently traveled to Washington to visit her parents. While there she was watching the evening news where they were sharing "Breaking News" about a man hauling cattle who blew a tire and then had some of his cattle get out on the highway. They had a news helicopter covering the story and it went somewhere like this:


"The guy hauling the cattle got a flat tire and Black and Gus got out on the freeway. Looks like they caught one of them, I'm not sure whether it was Black or Gus..."


Then the news cut back to the anchors in the news studio and the anchor said:


"Yeah, it could be Black and Gus who got out on the freeway...or maybe it was some Black Angus cattle that got out..."


It was a hilarious story!

hahahahaha...sounds like something that would happen in Texas! Half the time I am sure those anchors have no idea what they are reading (as obvious from your story!).

Okay, not sure whether or not to be horrified or laugh ;). Mostly because I'm moving there and sure hope they are more intelligent than that!!! But it is so funny ;).

Where are you From???
