Straight from Las Vegas, the fabulous Bovine Trio brings you moo’d music for Christmas.
I’ve always liked to send cards on the strange side– strange enough that they are hard to find. So I started making my own for family and friends. In the spirit of the season, I decided to share some of these cards with my blogging friends. Welcome to my wild (and, um copyrighted) collection. Enjoy.
You met my singing cows above. Like most chorus girls, they are slightly under-dressed. In addition to their obvious assets, they bring new meaning to the old phrase, hoofing it. They happen to be singing Jingle Bells, BTW. Here’s another carol you will be familiar with.
Silent Knight, Holy Knight
Food is big over the holidays. Everyone has their favorite dishes. Mine is turkey with all of the trimmings! So here, in honor of holiday food, meet Tom.
Turkey dressing for Christmas dinner.
A miracle of modern culinary art– the self-stuffing turkey.
I will close my section on food with a few choice words from Chef Van Duck.

Then we have Santa’s famous reindeer, who could ask for more faithful, hardworking companions. And what about the most famous reindeer of all– Rudolph with his famous nose. Did I say his? I recently learned a shocking secret.
Rudolph is a girl.
Male reindeer lose their antlers by December. Females keep theirs until spring. Have you ever seen a picture of Santa’s reindeer without antlers. Conclusion: Rudolph and all of Santa’s reindeer are girls. Here’s another Rudolph fact that the Christmas industry likes to downplay. Working conditions at the North Pole aren’t always the best…
Red nosed reindeer goes on strike.
But here is even bigger news– Santa hired a strike breaker.
Monty the Mauve Nosed Moose.
And finally… can you stretch your mind far enough to imagine a reindeer hunting season.

Beyond its religious significance, Christmas is about giving, right. Well maybe it’s a little about getting. But how often do you find yourself wishing you just had a few more days to prepare? Wouldn’t it be great if you could send the cat out to buy those hard-to-find gifts? Bad idea.
You never know what the cat might drag home.
So, I’ll just make a few suggestions for last-minute gifts…
A box of Christmas Quackers.
A gift for the guy who has everything?
Dolly duck
And finally…
Primitive monster shows great presents of mind.
It’s a custom at Christmas to wish for world peace, right. One of Santa’s elves wishes we would hurry up and get it.

As for Frosty the Snowman, he is wishing for an end to global warming.
Here lies Frosty the Snowman, victim of a premature meltdown.
And that’s it for my holiday Blog… Everyone in our household, including Peggy, me and the cow wish you and your family the absolute best for the holidays and 2014– Curt

Heh heh — LOVE them!
Happy holidays to you two (and the cow), from across the land….!
Thanks FeyGirl. And right back at you. Happy Holidays and a great 2014. Say hello to your wonderful wildlife for me. –Curt
Ha ha ha – you have been having fun. Love them. You’re right though, if you want funny, you do have to make them yourself. Wishing you and Peggy a super festive season and all the very best for 2014.
Thanks… Here’s hoping that our paths will cross some day. –Curt
Thanks for the laughs. I love the silent and holey knights.
Glad you liked the Knights, Bill. They are one of my favorites as well. Happy Holidays to you and your family. –Curt

Funny and clever. You do it all, Curt. All the very best to you and yours.

Now when did you say you were starting your card line?
🙂 Happy Holidays. –Curt
You certainly put a smile on my face this early morning.
Thanks. Hard to get a better compliment than that. May you have a Happy Holiday and great New Year. –Curt
Just delightful. Merry Christmas to you and Peggy – and all who round your table go!
And a very Merry Christmas to you and your family as well, Linda… and, I might add, a great New Year.
–Curt
Curt… You are quacked up. Peggy… I am soooo sorry… 🙂
Peggy is laughing a little too loud. 🙂
I hope she is not quacking up.
And a very happy christmas from us to both of you, too.
Thanks Hilary.
Truly fabulous cards Curt. i bet your cards have brought many a smile to the faces of a lot of people. Wishing you and Peggy the happiest of holidays and a wonderful 2014. All the best, Terri & James
Thanks Terri and James. I always have a kick creating the cards and am always glad when people get a laugh from my weird sense of humor. The very best to the two of you. –Curt and Peggy
Good to have a place for Curt to feature his cards. Curt has a wonderfully weird sense of humor as you can see….:))
Or “off the wall” as the folks at Animal Couriers seem to think. 🙂
Well, we’re a bit late, but we’re absolutely loving your cartoons, Curt. Especially love the fun fact about the reindeers being girls. HA! Kind of befitting given reindeer are suppose to have a keen sense of direction. LOL. And the melted snowman is great. Gonna dig around your blog a bit to see if there are anymore.
