This is hilarious! I was laughing so hard at the names, so when I got to the real story, I was rollilng!!!

'Udder business' was a hoot, and trying to convince Shorty who was having the baby was priceless.

    Thank you so much for reviewing! And the six stars sure helped make my day, since I only post one to three times a week.

I really like your Swedish farmer's name! I am surprised that he has such an accent being a second generation American but I'm sure that was part of the comic effect. Fun skit and very good stage directions!

" coyboy or dairy farmer " (cowboy?)

    I have run into people who still have accents if they grew up in a pocket of neighbors and family who all speak the same language. His accent is fairly mild, just enough for a few mis-heard words. Thank you for reviewing! I thought I edited those typos, but I will check to see if the edits saved.

    You probably did edit. I kept your post up when I went to bed last night so it could be an older copy.

LOL! Wait until he finds out where eggs come from, that will turn him vegan for sure. This is well penned and a delightful read. You have a small typo:
"coyboy" - should this be cowboy?
Well done and thank you very much for sharing it.

Hello and a terrific Thursday to you Crystiecookie999. Thank you for sharing your script, it was an enjoyable read. I'd have to side with Shorty on this one, unless I had to I'm not milking a cow. LOL! Have a great day!

It's fun to catch up with John and Shorty again. In novels, we'll use Swedish words here and there in dialogue, but not attempt to write it out as it sounds (because it becomes cumbersome to the reader). But I see why and how it works in script dialogue. A funny scene.

Love your tongue in cheek mentality. A couple of small typos maybe, early on: coyboy s/b cowboy? and midway: cows names s/b cows' names. Your John Shane parodies are quite original and funny. I can hear John enunciate "Pilgrim" in the same manner as his predecessor did. Looking forward to the next chapter in this saga... ...ec

Just love these created characters Crystie, quite diverse, very quirky, you're building their personalities nicely. Now it seems Shorty and John are going to Help Sven to find his missing cows, this is hilarious, very rich, well done, blessings, Roy
