Way back in July I'm reading The Adventures of Accordion Guy in the 21^st
Century [1] when I see this entry on getting an official Tucows Squishy Cow
[2] and all I have to do is take photos with the Squishy Cow in interesting
places in Florida.

So I sign up.

And wait.

And wait.

And eventually forget about the whole thing.

But what should I find waiting for me when I finally get home?

[Mooooooooo!] [3]

My Official Tucows Squishy Cow.


Had it arrived but two days earlier I would have taken it with me to Bok
Tower [4].

Heck, I could have taken photos of it next to real Holstein cows [5].

Sigh.
