When I was little my grandparents told me that cows get spots where the water, from their drinking ponds touch them. I actually belived this until about the age of 13. Needless to say I felt really stupid when I tried to tell a friend that and she just laughed at me. Now that I have my own kids I can't wait to pass on this little bit of knowledge to them. Hehe.
