Yo, did you hear about the shenanigans?? The gate was left open, and all the cows escaped, according to the local news report at 6:30 EST. Hopefully, they will follow their udders and return to the Big Red Barn in time for next Monday at 4. Just in time for the first episode of "Frozen Purple Cow." Pause, rewind, play. FIRST EPISODE OF FPC!!!!! It premiers Feb. 20, 2012. T...

Today is a sad day. Don't worry-- no one died or was run over by a John Deere-- but it's the last episode until next semester. That's right. FPC is taking a two month hiatus, but that doesn't mean you have to stop enjoying the precious, perfect, pedal-pushin', party-hoppin', purple drank. You can still slurp it down while doing other activities, like reading the Farmer's A...

Yo, this Thursday is Thanksgiving- probably a bull's favorite holiday because it is no longer the focus of dinner. Now, the turkeys will turn heads, and the farmers will give one more last ditch effort to fatten them to perfection. Actually, it's probably too late as they are already shipped, chopped, frozen, and traveling to your nearest grocery store unless you are into ...

Is your yellow cheese hat squished onto your head of golden braids that dangle down your red plaid shirt which is tucked into your blue jeans held up by your golden belt buckle that make your legs looked sexy tucked into your brown leather cowboy boots caked with dirt from your corn field? If you answered yes, then by golly, you sound ready for the next episode of FPC! If ...

Hello. I don't mean to begin on a somber note, but this week's show is dedicated to my Grandma who passed away the Sunday before this broadcast. She was a true farm girl, growing up with four siblings (if I remember correctly) on a farm in Wisconsin during the Depression. I interviewed her in eighth grade about her experiences, and luckily, have them down on paper. At this...

Good Evening, fellow Cow aficiondos! I know what you're thinking- you've never heard that mantra about 5 glasses before. Well, I will explain. You eat three square meals a day which obviously includes a full glass of milk (we don't discriminate- as long as you're supporting our cows, we're happy but we strongly urge 1% for the creamy-but-not-too-heavy flavor). Then you wil...

Yo. I'm so tired. These past few weeks have been really busy. When you're not studying for heat & mass transfer prelims, you're doing problem sets about a shell-and-8-tube pass heat exchanger forcing you to stay at Olin Library until 2 AM or doing the thermodynamics questions about fugacity which guest Professor Tester introduced two weeks ago in a dry-as-dry-mud lectu...

Yo, it's time once again to pull out the plaid from your closet and start mixing that Frozen Purple Cow of yours. This week, you can listen to an exciting list featuring many artists singing tunes from a gamut of 12 different genres. Impressive, huh? hahaha. Actually, I chose to dedicate my entire show to that one country/pop-croonin' blonde chick who wears her heart on ...

Yo. This week's theme was songs that included numbers in the song, in its title or in the band's name. Since I was knee-deep in the 1st round of muddy prelims, numbers were constantly on my mind like all the rain we were getting in Ithaca which was ruining my chances of taking out the combine and harvesting my soybeans. Anything above a 15% humidity rate makes them incapab...

Welcome to the second episode! I'm still working out the kinks of dj'ng and ran into a whole new set of technical difficulties this week resulting in creating a new playlist on the fly but hey, at least I figured out how to successfully upload last week's content! Although you might only want a small milkshake this week before you move onto bigger and better things, you sh...
