Meet My Mascot

    I decided once I started SkyWatch that it would need a mascot, and since this whole thing started with my interest in cow mutilations suddenly spiking up (and since I dedicated this entire blog to Robert Urich and his dead-cow movie) I decided it would be a cow. I figured I would have one of my artist friends (I have many more than one) draw me a little cartoon cow to upload or something and that would be the end of it. Was it fate, then, or outside intervention of some kind (Alien? Ghost? The eternal attraction of a relatively cheap price?) that when I went with my dad to run errands one day that I was strolling along a toy aisle, minding my own business, and what did I see but a bin of plastic animals, and what animal should happen to be on top?
    No, under the rhino. A FREAKING COW!!!!!
    So that's how, for only $1.07 (although Dad covered the tax), I ended up with my mascot, Castle. 
    Feast your eyes (and nothing else, since he's plastic and probably wouldn't taste too good):

    This is my cow. 
    He enjoys grass, water, and not being abducted by aliens and experimented upon. 
    As far as I know, he has not been abducted and mutilated. 
    I would like to keep it that way. 
    When I asked him what he would like to say to his adoring public, he said, in a very emotional voice, "Moo." 
    He hopes you like him (and do not abduct and mutilate him). 
    He would like to thank one of my artist friends for drawing that clearly studio-quality background. 
    He enjoys making friends (of the non-ET variety) and hopes you like him too.
