Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

I was thinking the same thing, tommyrot. I don't see a slow, plodding cow being very effective at scaring dementors.

Clearly you have never been chased by a cow. And no, I don't want to talk about it.

Did you get milk in your eye?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

oddly enough I just filled in the crossword answer, "MOOED".

I just very nearly spit wine on my computer.

Clearly you have never been chased by a cow.

Or been unexpectedly licked by one!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

What do you suppose Voldemort's Patronus is? An Albanian?

Yeah, I know, snake, but come on! He's missing out!

I really wish I had access to my childhood photo album right now. There's a great picture of me, age 6, cowering in a corner as three dairy cows lean over and attempt to lick me. I am not afraid of cows, but neither do I dismiss them.

My view of cows lines up really well with Gary Larson's.

Yeah they're plotting something, those cows.
