Service Defined

I became confused when I heard the word "Service" used with these agencies:
Internal Revenue 'Service'
U.S. Postal 'Service'
Telephone 'Service'
Cable TV 'Service'
Civil 'Service'
State, City, County & Public 'Service'
Customer 'Service'
This is not what I thought 'Service' meant.

But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to 'Service' a few cows.

BAM!!! It all came into focus. Now I understand what all those agencies are doing.

I hope that you are now just as enlightened as I am.

Young farmer was leading a cow down the road when a neighbor wife said, "Where are you taking that cow?"
He says, "I'm taking her to be serviced."
"Can't your father do that?"
"Nope. He ain't registered"

Does this mean????????.....Well, 60 years ago I used to spend a lot of time with my uncle...he traveled around our area artificially inseminating cows. As a 12 year old he let me try my hand (umm, yes hand) at it. There probably are not too many pre teens who have had their hands that far in to a cow. HMMMM, "service" does sound like a better term than what my classmates used. LOL
