Sorry, Kat.? I was being sarcastic, which is not my best side.? I was just bothered by an LD rider who is so concerned about racing and placing in their first 50 mile "FEI" ride.? I'm sure he's a lovely man and an exquisite horseman, but the attitude is a real turn-off to me and I am sure I'm not alone.? My heart does go out to anyone being deployed to Iraq.? I hope he has many years to fulfill his dreams and doesn't have to hurry them so.
