Again???

"U.S. Department of Agriculture confirms a cow in Washington state has tested "presumptive positive" for mad cow disease.
Watch CNN or log on to http://CNN.com (AOL Keyword: CNN) for the latest news." What ever happened last year? It just kind of dropped out of the news. Did our govt.'s squash it almost immediatley?

You know why they call it Mad-Cow disease, don't you?

Because PMS was already taken.
