Update pg 100-Erin sends the thread over the Rainbow Bridge. It had a good life...

Sounds good Mcm! Are you going to explain to your friend why you are waiving north?? Best leave that unexplained (just tell her/him you are waiving in the direction Cherry Hill- everyone knows where that is!)
Well don’t ride the fillygelding’s baby if it isn’t ready, we wouldn’t want to rush it along! Feed lots of BOSS and hopefully it will be ready!
I’m sure our custom Hermes don’t fit, I tried it on the horse/moose and he wouldn’t even walk forward so I think we are set there!!
Finders are you ready to take on the baby for the weekend? I know you will teach her so much and then I can buy that fillygelding if she wins enough classes on her/him! Plus it will be her one week birthday! I’m so happy to be a pony mom!!

(really guys, waaaay too much wine for me. I need to sleep it off now!)

Alright Many Colts Meandering…I’m sending Snap Go Goldfishes to you so you can work it out with Finders…just send me my cut I trust you completely! Heck, I’ve met you once, how could I not trust you??
So a truck full of Mexicans picked me and my horses up and we are heading to the east coast where all the cool people are any way. I told them we can set up a business, they can groom and I’ll be the trainer and we will split proftis 50/50. Sounds good to me!

snap - i bet it took an insane amount of time to catch up after not having internet for a week…poor poor snap…

i think the contest thing is a good idea. the tripods can compete! we can just watch.

do you thank that texas justice judge joe brown could come be the judge for this one?

If it’s at my place, then we have to have vaulting as well as rodeo classes. OK?

Thanks for all your responses and for not flaming me about my questions!!! I was so scared when she started producing milk! I will try the chiropractor, does anyone have any experience with this, does it work??? Do chriopractors work??? I’ll start the peat moss bedding right away, is it easier than shavings/straw/woody pet, maybe I should just use peat moss for all of the horses?

mcm, I’m liking your style! I like PANS but snappy pants made me giggle heartily. I shall let you all decide. But Finders needs one to…hmm… how about Go Find? I’m not good with these names.
I guess the foalt can go in with Snap Go Goldfishes but we will have to crank her in draw reins and spur her forward to get leaps out of her. You can handle that right? We have to make her look good for Finders (after the references clear!).

Oh, I called the vet and told her all of these issues I’m having and she hung up on me! Suggestions?? Call her back, find a new vet? Hire the vet of my old trainer who litteraly spit out verbatum what the trainer thought was the problem? (Yeah that was a lot of wasted time and money… )

I agree Phaxxton…Jetsmom, title change please?? We are still a lively bunch in here!

jeeez eggbutt! my grandparents live really really close to guilford college…down where the new carabbas is near the winn dixie if you know where that is, they live right behind there…thats kinda creepy! have you always lived there? yikes… </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Lived here long enough to call it home…of course that means too many years to count!!! Yup, I shop at the Lowes on New Garden Road!!! Twilight Zone time isn’t it? I’ll bet we’ve sat side-by-side at a stop light before. Kinda creepy/weird small world kinda thing isn’t it?

And with that…work begins. I wonder if I bribe my boss with flax seed cookies he will let me leave early. Or maybe he will turn into a horse and then…oh never mind, I know where you guys will take that statement.

So the truck full of Mexicans and myself have set up shop in NJ (why am I back here again??). They are very savy business men and they play our clients very well while they kill me on the profits. So now I’m riding 15 horses a day and teaching 20 lessons to kids who can’t ride at all. Oh well, I just have to build up my business again. My old boyfriend the BNT came by to check up on me and his baby and found her riding the horses for me. He freaked out and said I was exploiting her talents at such a young age and he should be in charge of her training. I considered the black mail card and though better of telling him the truth that a tripod is the father.

The foalt is getting amazing! I’ve got to bring him to a show soon. We have really figured the leaping thing out and now he can extend and collect. It is a little bouncy but he can jump the barn!

I need some advice…all of my horse’s hooves seem to be falling off. I have had them in stacked shoes from day one and I never pick their feet out and they just swam for like a week straight and then were turned out on mud. That’s OK right? How should I fix this?

do you think i shoudl get this one instead??

Ladies of NC:

Anyone for getting together at the Officer’s club at Fort Bragg one night for margaritas and bloody olivers?

Hellooooo? Oh great, now MCM has locked herself in the bathroom.

mcm - thank you for remembering to give me credit for even table…now i won’t have to whack you…congrats. for getting to live for another day.

as for everyone else…i have an earth shattering problem that i need you all to solve for me.

my horse…well, he’s not really mine…trips all of the time. at the standstill, at the walk, and the gallop (we don’t trot or canter…who does?) anywho, he keeps tripping. and when we go to jump jumps, he takes off about 10 strides before the jump. why do you think this is? do you think boss could cure it? or do you think he’s got moonshine smegma coolers hidden in his stall that he’s been sipping all day? my trainer says its probably neeeroolugical, but she’s wrong, because i’ve never even heard of that. my mom AND my vet side with my stupid trainer, and no one will listen to me. they are wrong! what should i do?

please don’t flame me. i am only 15 and looking for helpful answers to my issue(s)…my mom doesn’t love me, and my trainer secretly hates me and beats my horse when i’m gone, so i know i can’t trust either…please please please don’t flame me. sorry this is so long. thanks, and please don’t be mean.

<span class=“ev_code_RED”>serious time out for a second…while we’re here in the land of the free having a whale of a time, let’s please think about our friends in London today. Damn terrorists.</span>

Jetsmom, I am surprised you do not know that beginning level Dressage is all about the big movement. The big trot. The big extended trot. The big piaffe. The big rider.

We do not canter at all at the big lower levels.

And if it was about obedience that advances to the upper levels??..no…won’t go there…that is too legit a topic.

It all about BIG BIG BIG in the gaits…and the size 2xx riders who ride them.

jetsmom – I have loved reading your comments on the other thread…you need to post more here!!!

Finders – I am having second thoughts about selling Snap Go Gold Fishes…I think you should buy her/him/it and let me keep them at my ranch with my BNT so I can make sure it’s well taken care of. Does that sound good?

DeLapp – LMAO I asked what BOSS was like one page ago! It’s Black Oiled Sunflowed Seed…I prefer just to give my horse used transmition fluid! Eggbutt suggested it to me.

Now, how to get some resques for the bbq…shall we got horse shopping this weekend?

Ack! Time to go home from “work”! I’ll look for some rescues on the way!

horse poo - congrats on finding a real tripod!! It’s good to know that the growth on your eye didn’t deter him.

Thanks for the memorial to the flaxseed cookies. I’m glad SOMEONE is taking this to be as serious as it truly is.
Snap- the fillygelding colicked last night…or went into labor. not sure which. I gave her banamine and ACE and of course her BOSS and then went to meet the tripods for some smegma coolers. I haven’t been out to check on her yet today, so we’ll see.

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm guys, this is a PG13 board—please watch the innuendos

And just so you know, my mom posts here too so whenever you say something mean to me or about me she will defend me. So there. She is also going to be a chaperone at the prom.

Is this prom in NC? Because I just got back from NC. My Geo Storm is broken and the Chevette needs to rest as it is usually used in lieu of a golf cart at shows and was not really up for the drive back home after the 4th celebration. But, I s’pose I COULD pull the dust cover off of the Pacer-I had all of my cars fitted with trailer hitches on the roof to accomodate the trailer pulling. However, it may not match my trailer-my Pacer is sky blue and trailer is burnt orange. Some people say it’s rusted out, but I prefer to call it burnt orange.

I am trying to sell the octuplets in utero so if you know anyone that would like to buy one, send them my way–but this is not an ad.

Finders…Delapp is partially right…cut off a “pod” rather than a limb.

I’ve always found that moody tripods are a result of a chemical imbalance in the brain. My BNT Tom says that’s not even possible and I’m glib (see how we can now go full circle with our own thread! ) and I need to feed more fruits and veggies. I’ve considered castrating Tom to see how he feels about mood swings, but have decided to call the vet instead.

One thing I have found that does help a moody tripod is to use lots of liniment…rub it all over and rub vigorously. They seem to loff it and cheer right up.

Does anyone have a great liniment (IS that spelled right??) recipe for Finders?

I think you should hang some spur charm type ornaments at the bit end of the reins. They’ll keep the flies from landing in your horse’s mouth, and he’ll like the jingling noise they make.

I have lurked for years but now feel the need to post.

Eventable - Your finger clearly needs BOSS and smegma in some combination.

Now, I have a really serious question: My dressage horse has decided to be a jumper - do I need to buy all new stuff with extra bling? ANy suggestions welcome.

Also, I have slept with all the dressage judges - surely I don’t have to now go after the jumper judges, do I? I’m trying to get away from the subjectivity.

BTW What is BOSS?
