Milking farm animals...

"George didn't know much about ranches when we bought the place. Andover and Yale don't have a real strong ranching program. But I'm proud of George. He's learned a lot about ranching since that first year when he tried to milk the horse. What's worse, it was a male horse."
-First Lady Laura Bush, at The White House Correspondant's Association Dinner, 2005

Well, it seems Bush had left university when he tried to milk a horse. So, I ask... How old were you when you first knew that male horses are not meant to be milked?

Well, perhaps my family were a bit permissive with the animal husbandry ed, but I don't remember ever having to be told.

But we should not be too quick to point the fun. I was watching the tv show "Dirty Jobs" once, and they made the host of the show "milk" a stallion at a thoroughbred stud farm. I will not go into details, except to say it didn't take too long and the results were worth at least $25,000 -- in a baggie. I'll never forget the host shaking the baggie in front of the camera and saying, "All this can be yours if the price is right."

So I think this would be a good retirement business for GW. He should keep practicing.

Well, I grew up on a farm and we hand milked. I started milking probably about 7 years old. Milked until college.

I could give you some real stories about how stupid city kids are about animals, sex, life, death, food supply in general.........

There are cultures that milk mares, but you would have to start out with the first colt and train them as you do cows.

The funny part of this story is the fact that Bush claims to be a rancher/cowboy, when he is obviously a blueblood. By the way did you all see how he held a hammer at a Habitat House?

Perfectly in order, since McClellan and the guy before him (and quite likely the new FauX guy will have) made it patently clear that everything the current administration is engaged in is equitable with a bad joke.

Sorry if someone already brought this up, but does anyone remember the commercial a few years ago? I think it was a "Got milk?" one.

The man wakes up in the morning and pours himself a bowl of cereal.
He has no milk and he looks out the window and sees a cow.
He walks out and puts his bowl beneath the cow.
His roomates have woken up and are watching out the window.
One turns to the other and asks "Do you think we should tell him that's a male cow?"
The other replies "No, he'll figure it out."
But the first guy is still out underneath the cow and you hear it moo.

Haven't seen a stallion "milked", but have seen a bull harvested for semen. They stick an electrode up the anal opening, then someone holds a wire, with a loop and a plastic bag on the loop, over the male organ. Then he's zapped with the electrode and out comes the semen, into the plastic bag.

It was more fun for the stallion on the tv show. A veterinarian used an "artificial vagina" equipped with a baggy to catch the semen. The stallion mounted a mare-like frame -- a party-mare-doll? -- and the host stood in for the vet actually holding the artificial vagina for the stallion. They got the stallion worked up by bringing a mare in heat into the room. They won't let the horses mate naturally because (A) they might fight and (B) they sell the semen to owners of several different mares. I have to give the tv show host points for not flinching.

They sell the semen of bulls also. All dairy are artificial insemination. A lot of beef cattle are also. One ejaculation can handle dozens of females. Boars (pigs) are even more potent. One shot can do hundreds.

The semen is put in small straws and quick frozen in nitrogen. and either delivered by special truck or mailed. The farmer/breeder looks through huge catalogs (or now the internet) to choose just the right bull for the cow. How far apart the calves teats are and how large, how long of legs, how much milk, birth weight, speed of weight gain... dozens of criteria. With beef the whole herd of cows are given a shot that forces them to release eggs all at the same time. Dairy are bred as they "come in". The straw is taken out of the nitrogen, then the breeder puts on a long plastic glove that goes up to the the shoulder. He reaches in and places the straw. 9 months and 9 days later we have a calf.

The cost can be from a few dollars to tens of thousands of dollars per straw. Depending on how good the bull is and how much demand for his sperm.

The stallion mounted a mare-like frame -- a party-mare-doll? -- and the host stood in for the vet actually holding the artificial vagina for the stallion. They got the stallion worked up by bringing a mare in heat into the room. They won't let the horses mate naturally because (A) they might fight and (B) they sell the semen to owners of several different mares. I have to give the tv show host points for not flinching.
That's 'cuz even though Mike Rowe is horribly caustic, and a lot of people watch for the same reason they watch hockey and car races, he agreed (in bitchy but good character) ... and besides i doubt it's the first time he's mentioned a product in a baggie for $ ... even sperm, i suspect (the early days) .....
... and even better is that particular episode has been replayed a few times in the "Viewer's Choice" block, IIRC. Wasn't the sow insemination on that one too? That was ickier.

My buttons are only lightly pressed.
As is, i've still got the iguana anus anecdote AND the Roseanne Barr pregnancy episode fresh in front-page rotation.
Well, perhaps not the iguana anus.

Says who, i didn't miss you?
I'm not a mod, you know. Besides, i had a busy weekend. Is that when it happened?
Admittedly, the mods do let me get away with A LOT. Except for GMC Military Arms and Katganistan - they both got me with something or other.
Mostly Harmless.

Cabra West had a thread a while back of posters people'd miss, and i put you on it.

They sell the semen of bulls also. All dairy are artificial insemination. A lot of beef cattle are also. One ejaculation can handle dozens of females. Boars (pigs) are even more potent. One shot can do hundreds.<snip>
Yep, I know (don't remember how old I was when I learned it, though ;)). It's just that they apparently use a more natural (if somewhat kinky) method on the thoroughbreds. I don't know if this is because the electrode method is definitely dangerous for horses, or because it might be dangerous and their insurance won't cover it. Or maybe it's because the naturalistic methods are unsafe for the veterinarians when dealing with bulls. But for whatever reason, race horse studs have more fun than bulls.

OK, here's the deal: I don't really like getting foot massages (don't like being fussed over), but I do like the idea of having a foot masseur on staff and on call. So I'll just siphon off campaign money to pay you to do nothing. How's that sound?

Hey, man, don't screw with a winning formula. And wouldn't it be worth the death of both our ethics just so that when Chris Matthews says, "Ms. Muravyets, how do you answer these charges that you illegally used campaign funds to pay for a personal, full-time foot masseur?", I can look him right in the eye and say with all honesty, "I have never received a foot massage in my life"?

I heard a pretty funny analogy once about why guys shouldn't expect girls to make certain concessions to them. Believe it or not, i have a certain standard of dignity that makes me not explain it further.
In the stead, i'll simply make allusion to a certain situation in Happy Gilmore, where Ben Stiller confronts a certain grandma over a certain beverage.
Then, cross-ref to post-nasal drip. *nods*

What's wrong with "I can't remember." and "I have no recollection, Senator." - that's obviously been a winning formula for republicans at least since Reagan!
