    Ok…. I believe YOLO stands for “You only live once.”

    I didn’t know people said it aloud as a word…. if that’s what this means.

    But I think so, cos I think he’s excusing their dangerous row on a wild river in India, past a cow who disagrees cos she believes in reincarnation.

    Bruno, yes, I saw it thanks.

    I was trying to drop it….but …I’m sure you understand my reaction…..

    Imagine you’d told me about something you believed in, and I’d said “Some people say that’s all nonsense”…Same deal.The legacy of Anne Frank is important to me.

    It reminds me of the Most Interesting Man in the World commercial that says “In a previous life, he was himself”.

    At least the cow’s happy. In his last life, he spent 30 years as a cartoonist.

    Wow did I ever get this wrong!! See, I thought the guy was making a “hook’em horns” with his fingers and saying " You only lose once" and the cow was saying UT will may lose again . . . Thanks Sue . . ☺

    I thought the cow was Humpty Dumpty at first (kind of odd perspective……) I wonder if anybody would balk at reincarnation if they were forced to come back as one of “The Far Side’s” cows?

    But the rowers, with hats and tattoos, make me think we are missing part of the joke. I think they represent someone specific.
