Just another day
Nothing makes a great front page news story like some escaped cows:
FAIRFIELD COUNTY - State Troopers knew they were in for something a little different Sunday after receiving reports of two accidents involving cows and vehicles on U.S. 33.
Doing a quick search of the area near Allen Road, troopers determined that about a dozen black cows were loose in the area surrounded by cornfields, pastures and farm houses.
Three cows were killed in the auto accidents at the intersection of Allen Road.
Firefighters Monday used thermal-imaging techniques to try to spot members of the herd that had escaped into a nearby cornfield.
"Our concern has to be with the safety of the motoring public and the private property. We don't want to see any more accidents,"said State Highway Patrol Trooper Kurt Hedges.
Hedges said the Central Indiana & Ohio Railroad was warned about the cattle running loose on and near the railroad line.
And as of 4 p.m. Monday, troopers remained on the lookout for roaming cows.
The first indication that there were signs of trouble was two accidents at 8:30 p.m. Sunday.

So, sorry I haven't visited the Osgood Hotel in a while, but I am disappointed to see that there has been no mention of the fact that the last couple outings of our futile soccer team have not ended in a loss.
