Cattle Call

The tiny Mid-East country of Qatar is being blockaded  by its neighbors due to their political differences. This has caused a shortage of the popular Saudi milk forcing the natives to drink the lesser quality Turkish variety. But a wealthy tycoon has offered a solution. He intends to fly 4000 cows to Qatar in what may be the biggest ever bovine airlift. When you consider the "udder" scope of the venture it must be costing a lot of "MOOlah."

    As Ogden Nash once said: The cow is of the bovine ilk/One end is moo, the other milk.
