THE MYTH

"Cows lifting their tails is a sure sign rain is coming"

THE REALITY

Cows lifting their tails means waters-a-comin, but it ain't no rain.

Doppler radar seems to have stifled the need to observe bovine forecasters (I'm not talking about the girl on channel 7). Although Cow Forecasts have been proven 30% more accurate than Environment Canada, their questionable ties to Al-Queda and the Taliban make cow watching akin to supporting terrorism. For this reason one should use the less accurate but far more politically correct Wolverine method. And for God's sake don't be fooled by the moose!
