A joke to take the minds off the worriers and whittlers, who think we are all going to be wiped out with plagues pestilence and the off chance of a collision with a asteroid.
In a small village in Russia the village milking cow dried up, the villagers were panicking wondering what to do. A village elder suggested they go and see the wise man of the woods, so they traipsed up to where the wise man of the woods lived. They explained the problem they had with the cow and he told them they would have to purchase a new cow.
The villagers went back and held a meeting , it was decided that two villagers would travel to Minsk cattle market where one of the villagers uncles worked and he could help them choose a good milking cow.
After 5 days the villagers returned with a really good milking cow and the cow started to provide all the milk the villagers needed. At a council meeting the question was raised about the same occurrence happening with the new cow. A villager was once again sent up to ask guidance from the wise man of the woods, he told the villager to go to the next village and borrow their bull to service the cow. This they did the following morning, but no matter what they did, the cow would have none of it. Again a party of villagers went to see the wise man of the woods, they explained no matter how they tried to introduce the bull to the rear end of the cow the cow would turn, to the left, to the right, even to face the bull. The wise man thought for a moment, chin in hand and asked, 'Did you get this cow from Minsk' The villagers were astounded they said yes they did but how could you, wise man possibly know such a thing? He turned to them and said, 'My wife comes from Minsk'
