Why Cows Don't Talk

Today Collin and I had a little conversation in the car about a time when we were at Chick-fil-A and the giant cow mascot was walking around the store.

Collin: "Dad, do you remember that time when that big cow at Chick-fil-A gave (his stuffed animal) puppy a mint?"

Me: "Of course I do."

Collin: "Yeah, that was funny."

Me: "Why do you think the cow didn't say anything?"

Collin: "I don't know. Maybe he is deaf."
