The Indian Cow

The only cow in a small town in Australia stopped giving milk.
The townsfolk found they could buy a cow in India quite cheaply.

They brought the cow from India and it was wonderful, produced lots of milk
every day and everyone was happy.
They bought a bull to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never
have to worry about their milk supply again.

They put the bull in the pasture with the cow but whenever the bull tried
to mount the cow,the cow would move away.
No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the
bull and he was never able to do the deed.

The people were very upset and decided to go the Vet, who was very wise to
tell him what was happening and ask his advice.
"Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away. If he approaches
from the back, she moves forward, they saidWhen he approaches her from the
front, she backs off. If he attempts from the one side, she walks away to
the other side."

The Vet rubbed his chin thoughtfully and pondered this before asking, "Did
you by chance, buy this cow in India?"
The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned that they have
bought the cow over from India.
"You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow in
India ?
The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye,
"My wife is from India.........."

Cancer Meds Wiped Off Man's Fingerprints

A 62-year-old tourist was trying to enter the United States when he was stopped at customs to have his fingerprints scanned. This was a problem for both him and the customs agents, for he had no fingerprints.

The man, dubbed Mr. S in news reports, was detained for hours as agents checked to make sure he wasn't some sort of sneaky criminal or terrorist. But no, it turns out his fingerprints were removed without his knowledge.

He was taking capecitabine, a follow-up drug for chemotherapy for cancer of the head and neck. One of its side effects is inflammation of the palms and soles of the feet, which can cause peeling and bleeding of the skin and, eventually, can cause fingerprints to vanish.

Mr. S had been taking capecitabine for three years when he decided to visit relatives in the States, at which point his prints were gone. Luckily, he was eventually allowed to enter the country and visit his relatives once the officials determined that he wasn't dangerous.
