It is a sad day here at the JohnCow pastures. While filming our first “Official” JohnCowTV episode our faithful COW was kidnapped…. hmm I guess I mean COWnapped!

We are at a complete loss for words as to what to do right now but we have contacted the authorities and they are on the case. In the mean time we are without fresh milk and the vacuuming is not getting done :(

The entire incident was luckily caught on film and you can check it out for yourself!

Oh, I’m so sorry to hear that Cow has been cownapped. Cow will be in our thoughts. At any rate, I love the show, and I think Audrey did a fantastic job as host. Great advice!

I’m surprised that you have Bob Jones on the list of suspects. I thought that’s who you had zipped up in the cow costume.

Are you handling this yourself or do you have the help of the local authorities?

The cow is in my prayers

Yes the the Mounties have been notified and rumour has it that they talked about it for a few seconds today at one of the donut shops. Again, i appreciate the support.

I actually have a prayer group going at my church where someone is praying for the safe return of the cow every hour of every day…

ok not really but that would be funny

It’s just not right - a cow can’t even go out and appear in the background of a TV show anymore without getting bundled into the back of a car and mooooved at top speed.

Have you had a ransom demand yet?

I just want to let everyone know up front before rumors start spreading… It WANSN’T ME!!! So don’t ask!!!

I didn’t pay a hit man $3000 dollars to do this. No Way!!!!

John Cow is a cow patty cow dung who thinks he’s all that and a bag of organic grass dried potato chips… but I had nothing to do with this.

We are friends… GOOD Friends!!! I love steak… err, I mean COW!!!

So let me ask you this? Did you cry yet? Do you EVEN know how to turn a vacuum cleaner on???

Yeah, ok.. so like you make money online and all that jazz… but come on?? Hiring a cow to do the dishes, the laundry, etc… Sheesh!!!

For all we know, the COW set this all up himself just to get the hell out of your house!!!

BTW… and this is TOTALLY unrelated. I was researching on Wikipedia about cows a little bit. Um… if I happened to have a cow as a pet, how often does one need to feed it? Again totally unrelated question… more less just curious. ;)

It wasn’t me… I am out $3,000 dollars though… but I think that was from losing my butt at the casino. For sure it wasn’t from hiring a hit man or anything like that.

If I kidnapped Cow, the only thing I would do is just teach him how to work better for his owner. Jason gets quite frustrated with Cow’s work performance and can get quite abusive. What you don’t see on these YouTube videos is where Jason keeps Cow off the air. It is very possible that Cow set this whole thing up himself just to get away from Jason and his very abusive behaviors.

You guys did see the previous video right? All cow wanted to do was just help keep the carpet clean.. sheesh.

Yeah… I like my steak dinner with a nice garden salad and I sure do enjoy eating cheese burgers. However, due to the unethical practices and living conditions of COW, I seriously doubt he would be Top Grade A meat. For sure, Cow would not pass thru FDA inspection.

Face it… Cow is better off dead. This whole thing could very well be a planned doctor COWvorkian visit. Jason just needs to get himself a replacement donkey. ;)

It was me, I ordered the COWnapping in a jealous drunken rage :twisted: over the traffic your site is getting

I was really drunk in this bar with a farmer and blah blah blah. I tried to stop them but I was too late and now they’ve disappeared and I don’t know what to do :?: hehe lol

But seriously I wonder who did it. I reckon it was the guy in the red shirt that looked like bruce willis :lol:

 
2008-09-13 12:23:51

I have lot of respect for Garry. He was working on a site of mine so that may be an alibi depending on the timing.

To be honest, I think it was you guys just to get publicity.

[Oh thanks honey, that looks like a yummy Carl's Jr. Six dollar burger. Hmmmm that is good]

Okay, where was I. Oh yea. I think this is a fake. I want to see a copy of the police report posted. :O)

Poor COW! I would have said Garry Conn, but I like him too much to accuse him of such a nasty crime! Besides, he’s playing into this too much to be the one, although he has been bragging about the new freezer full of steaks.

I will take you up on your “send me your promo” stuff offer - who wouldn’t? Are you sure you want to give people carte blanche to send you random stuff. Hmm….man, it is fun to visit this blog!

OK, I was the one who gave you the bestbuy.com coupon…but, hoW, hOW, HOW could you do it, Conn? What did that bovine ever do to you? What did you have against it? Are you secretly a Gateway branding agent, looking to rid any other business of using a cow as their theme? What a dastardly plan! (uh, is JohnCown still listening?..uh, I like my t-bone medium rare, Conn!).

Long live the COW!

In my town the butcher had a lifesize cow over his storefront. During homecoming, the rival high school stole the cow and placed it in the middle of our football field. Check the local high school football field for COW. Probably just fine, happily grazing.

Hmmmm. You should realize that ‘John Cow’ should either be ‘Jane Cow’ or ‘John Bull’, right? The references to milking Cow rule out ‘John Bull’. It could also be ‘Jane Heifer’ but for your references to getting milk. There you need to change the bulletins to indicate ‘Jane Cow’ was taken. You don’t want them looking for some mad bull, now do you?

Also, the authorities need to have this reported as cattle rustling. It may still be a capital offense, deserving of immediate lynching when the perp is caught.

Jane Cow may also be known as Jane Holstein Cow. She may be the offspring of Bessie. Ole Bessie was last seen on the Old MacDonald farm. Check to see if she was rustled back to the old homestead. Maybe you were not treating her right and she faked the rustling to go back home.

You may have been over-milking the poor gal. That or there was too much bull around there.

I’m looking forward to the next episode, hope you catch the COWnapper.

Don’t worry guys, I am over here in the UK and I will use my underworld contacts, if he shows up anywhere over here, I will know about it.

And the guys that took him will never see the light of day again, they will be buried six feet under.

Ok… so if anyone watched PulpFiction many years ago.. here is something that you can chew on.

http://www.bigkahunaburger.com/suggest2/tn/mayors_income_town.html

From what I hear, Jason had put Cow in charge of traffic Kahuna and things kinda took a little slip in numbers. Needless to say, this could be an inside job and Cow is now being processed into a Big Kahuna Burger. And yes, it is coincidental that there happens to be a location in Tennessee. ;)

Well, actually they were calling her ‘John’ but that is impossible since they were milking the poor thing dry.

She appears to be Jane Holstein Cow. Check my previous blog.

Has anyone attempted to check out her former home at the Old MacDonald farm? Ole Bessie-the-Cow may be her mom.

Okay, since Jane Holstein Cow has not been found yet, I guess I need to point out the possibly chilling fact that whenever you have a cow that you are milking, lactation only occurs after pregnancy.

You were milking Jane, right?

So Jason, what did you do with Jane’s calf?

Did Jane get wind of some veal cutlets and stage her abduction (cattle rustling)?

Has anyone noted how long Jason has been milking this poor cow?

Calf needs part of the milk (unless calf is already veal cutlet).
