I hope she doesn’t moo…

I spotted this advertisement in an edition from the Albuquerque Journal last year. It’s seeking candidates for the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Posse queen. But if you’ll notice, it was published in the “LIVESTOCK, MISC” section of classified ads. Now I get that a cowgirl/4H/FFA kind of candidate (or her parents) might be inclined to look at that section of the classified ads on a regular basis. But I think if I were a fetching young lass, I’d be offended by the suggestion that I was just livestock on the auction block, especially of the “miscellaneous” kind. And I hope the contest winner’s name wasn’t “Patty.”
