Wow, that shows more intelligence than I would have suspected of 
cattle. An overview article of ox driving in the Middle Ages might make 
a good article or perhaps A&S contest entry. I suspect that this is a 
skill that is rapidly dying out. It might even make a good persona. But 
alas it isn't as flashy as what most people are looking for.
