I don't get it, she looks like every other cow I've ever seen, only freshly
bathed.

Yep, they'll inject her with hormones to get her to superovulate,
harvest the ova, then fertilize them invitro. implant them into
surrogate cows and sell them for big bucks..

Theodore Roosevelt:

A typical vice of American politics is the avoidance of saying anything
real on real issues.

A vote is like a rifle; its usefulness depends upon the character of the
user.

Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an invisible government
owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people.

I care not what others think of what I do, but I care very much about
what I think of what I do! That is character!

It is difficult to make our material condition better by the best law,
but it is easy enough to ruin it by bad laws.

The worst lesson that can be taught a man is to rely upon others and to
whine over his sufferings. If an American is to amount to anything he
must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in
his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others; he
must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can and accept
defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow-men a
responsibility which is not theirs.

It is her genetics that are different. She has superb confirmation, she
produces a lot of milk and genetically she will pas this on to her
offspring. She will produce many offspring through embryo transplant thereby
producing many bulls and cows with her great genes.
