Montevideo, Uruguay (The Weekly Vice) -- When was the last time you saw 52 cows laying dead along a wire fence, instantly killed by a single bolt of lighting? You can check your calendar and get back to me on that, but for now, is this kind of ominous looking or what?
52 cows were discovered last Wednesday after a storm in Uruguay (just east of Argentina in South America).
El Pais, a local newspaper there, reported that the assortment of brown and black cows were close to the fence during a storm Tuesday night when a single bolt of lighting turned Bessy and Mugsy into Fillet Mignon.
Veterinarians who inspected the cow carcasses confirmed that a lightning strike was the cause of death and that it's common for cows to herd together next to an object like a fence during a storm.
We are currently investigating a story that PETA protesters are now planning a demonstration against mother nature, but that's still unconfirmed. =)
Those of you who are completely confused as to what a story like this is doing here.... Well, as you may have noticed, we are going to throw a little more variety your way. In additional to the idiotic slime-balls who normally fill our pages, we'll be exposing you to even more insanity and calamity. Aren't you excited?
It's a strange world out there - and someone has to drag it's weirdness up to the back porch. =)
