Mister, why doesn't this cow have any horns?" asked the UNC student.

The farmer cocked his head for a moment, then began in a patient
tone, "Well, ma'am, cattle can do a powerful lot of damage with horns.
Sometimes we keep'em trimmed down with a hacksaw. Other times we
can fix up the young 'uns by puttin' a couple drops of acid where their
horns would grow in, and that stops 'em cold. Still, there are some
breeds of cattle that never grow horns.

But the reason this cow don't have no horns, ma'am, is 'cause it's a horse."
