The Riddler Roundup
Kacy's house is being painted by Brett (her boyfriend) and a guy who works for Kacy's dad, named Guy. Yes, his name is Guy and he is a painting machine who likes listening to hard rock (like Marilyn Manson) while he works. Guy also helps Mr. Taylor out on his farm (called 'The Lindsey') which is about 40 minutes outside of Gainesville and right now it is birthing season for Mr. Taylor's cows. One of the cows had twin calves recently but she isn't big enough to feed them both so Guy asked Brett to go out to the farm with him to pick up the smaller calf which we named 'The Riddler' because the markings on its forehead look like a question mark. I am on a break in-between summer sessions at school so I rode out to the farm with them in the hopes of seeing one of the other cows give birth (which I did, it was gross). I also had the opportunity to catch the boys in action:I would like it noted that after you see Guy running in slow motion, it cuts immediately to the shot of him holding The Riddler. Why don't I have him catching The Riddler on film you ask? Well that is because it turned out that I was the one who caught him! The boys wore themselves out running around in the field (you can see the mom cow chasing Brett into a big pile of manure) and then when the herd went to run through the gate to the next field I cut The Riddler off and pinned him against a fence until Guy could come grab him. We transported him in the back of Guy's van (his idea, don't ask) and The Riddler got a little nervous about his first car ride so he pooped in the back all over Guy's stuff (that is why Brett is making a face at the end). Don't worry about The Riddler, he went to live at Guy's mom's house with another calf who's mom couldn't feed him. What a nice Guy. Ha.
