Switzerland votes this Sunday on an issue of national importance that has divided the Alpine country – whether to subsidize farmers who let their cows’ and goats’ horns grow naturally.
The referendum on preserving the “dignity of livestock” was initiated by farmer Armin Capaul, 66, a self-described rebel. He says that “listening” to his cows inspired his nine-year campaign for cash to fund the extra grazing space horned animals need and which he hopes will reduce dehorning.
“We must respect cows as they are. Leave them their horns. When you look at them they always hold their head high and are proud. When you remove the horns, they are sad,” he told Reuters on his small farm in northwestern Switzerland.

It should be noted on your insurance paperwork if you are allowed a loaner while yours is being repaired, contact your agent if you are not sure.

I’m back from book club. Jill didn’t go. Daughter-in-law Sara picked me up. I don’t want to drive in the dark.
I put the leaf in the kitchen table today, swept the floor, remembered to take the cranberry relish out of the freezer and the Cool Whip. Will make the cake in the morning, bring up the roaster pan from the basement and I’ll be ready to start cooking Thursday morning.

Now we have to worry that the putz her put in Session’s place will see the Mueller work and relay what’s in it to Trump. I hope if he does, he doesn’t get away with it.
