RE: [RC] [RC] loose dogs mean Howard wins the ride - Howard BramhallI just adore American humor, even when it's at my own expense. I feel like Howard Dean sometimes. Should the two Howard's play the redneck card? YEHAAAWWW, is my answer. Let them see you for what you are. I'm sick and tired of the politician who does not show his humanity. Aren't ya'll?So, we'll drop Howard, since he has shown us all too much for what he is. A dog? Well, can't argue with that one? An LDer? Well, my endurance record truely sucks, especially this year, so, might as well go back to from where we came. I don't normally get pulled in the LD's. haha. As far as horse welfare goes, well, I'm trying to hold that one back for awhile. The gambler has been awfully quiet lately, and, if I keep my trap shut, and he does likewise, all is well with the world and we can just worry about our own selves and whom we might decide to pick to run against Georgie boy. American humor and American politics; what a match. If Dave was challenging me here, I will say I don't think we are doing enough when it comes to horse welfare in endurance. Take a shot at me if that statement offends you; just beware that this redneck rider might fire back a round or two. The mentor idea and a few others are good ones, but, they'll never come to pass, because, if we make it mandatory we'll be taking away someone's freedom or some such bullshit. The truth is, we've created this sport, we made it as free from restrictions or qualifications so every rider and every horse can be called an endurance one as long as they get that coveted completion. We are responsible for this sport because we have made it what it is today. We are the ones in control of what it is and where it goes. No one to blame but ourselves when something goes wrong. If we find mistakes, well, is it not our responsibility to correct them? Or, will we just leave it all up to the horse and rider, no experience or pre-requisities required, and continue down that merry path we wish never to change, no matter what happens along the way. cya, Howard From: "David LeBlanc" <dleblanc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _________________________________________________________________ Get a FREE online virus check for your PC here, from McAfee. http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
