Good morning underscore underscore Peter underscore underscore,

class Cow:
...     def lower(self): return "moo"

If you can't make sense of that: at the time of writing I thought that "lowering" was a synonym for "mooing". After a look into the dictionary it turns out to be "lowing", not "lowering". Sorry!

I, too, assumed an amusingly random example. I simply imagined a maladjusted bovine Lisa suspended ominously beneath the clouds. Your Lisa must not be just a lowing (synonym 'mooing') cow, she must also be a lowering cow.

  to lower (v.i.), to be or become dark, gloomy, and threatening
    (which is cognate to the contemporary German word 'lauern')

And, I dairy not chase this pun any further....
