They work for a while, and two cows come walking through the pasture beside the barn. The friend looks over and says, "Wow. Those are some fine looking animals. Where do they sleep?"
And the farmer says, "The black one or the white one?"
And the friend says, "Uh, I dont know. The black one."
Farmer: "Oh, she sleeps in the barn."
Friend: "OK, where does the white one sleep?"
Farmer: "Oh, she sleeps in the barn too."
The friend looks confused and then says, "What do you feed them cows?"
Farmer: "The black one or the white one?"
Friend: "The white one."
Farmer: "Hay."
Friend: "And the black one?"
Farmer: "Hay."
Friend: "What are you talking about, Carl? Why do you keep asking me whether I'm talking about the white cow or the black cow??"
Farmer: "Oh. It's because I own the black cow."
Friend: "Who owns the white one?"
Farmer: "I do."

I used to love going to the NYS fair and marveling at the sheer beauty of these animals.
The little calves would melt my heart.
Most beautiful!

(20,346 posts)I'm trying to save my vision.
I started eye injections last week.
Not the most pleasant thing, but necessary.
I developed a retinal bleed after cataract surgery which is a possible complication.
Other than that...I'm doing well!
Thanks for asking!
How about you, True Dough? You doing good?
True Dough
(23,651 posts)Is it reduced by say 10% or 30%? Or is it more like an "all or nothing" situation where it's fine for now but could be gone if the injections fail? Jeez, Lucky, I hope that the medical professionals can ensure you're still seeing my wisecracks for many years to come. Because that's the most important thing, ya know?
I'm doing fine, buddy. Heading out to mow the lawn shortly. Worst thing might be a few bug bites. I'll cope!

(20,346 posts)Whatever I look directly at with that eye only...is just not there! But the periphery around that small area in that eye is fine. Vision in right eye is 20/20 after the cataract surgery, so I only need reading glasses, and as of today, I'm still good to drive.
I'd say 10% vision loss in left eye - central vision only.
I also have a problem with the optic nerve in the right eye...but that has been stable for a few years now.
Glad you are well, True Dough. Be careful with that lawn mower!

So far, he's the only one in the family to have had either condition.
Sorry about your big bro.
