COMPARING: Horse or One Great Love?

>>Great Love (meaning a man or a woman) or one Great Horse in your 
>life, >how >would you answer?

Frank, since there's been so much interest in your post, I decided you
deserved a more in depth answer.  Perhaps we'd better do a little
comparasin shopping.  So, I'll compare and contrast a great husband and a
great horse.

CONTRAST:

1. Horses tend to walk into a clean stall and immediately take a dump.

Husbands tend to walk into a clean house and immediately hand their shirt
on the bed  post.  They're even.

2.  Horses are willing to eat the same thing at every meal and you don't
have to wash the dishes.

You don't have to put on your coat and boots or go outside to feed you
husband.  even again.

3. Horses don't talk.

Oops.  Neither do husbands.  even.

4. It feels great to have a good horse between your knees...
    Same goes for a husband. >eg< husband wins, he can keep your    back
warm and you don't have to walk him during the night.

GOOD THINGS ABOUT HUSBANDS:

1. Husbands are less expensive to shoe.

2.  Feeding a husband doesn't require anything that even mildly compares
with the hassle of putting up hay.

3.  A lame husband can still work.

4.  A husband with a belly-ache is capable of puking.

5.  Husbands don't try to scratch their heads on your back.

6.  They're more fun when their pulse is elevated.

7.  If they're playing hard to catch you *may* be able to run them down
on foot.

8.  They know their name.

9.  They pay their own bills.

10.  They apologize when they step on your toes.

11.  No saddle fitting problems. 

12.  They seldom refuse to get in the vehicle.

13.  They don't panic, yelling and running all through the house when you
leave them alone. (unless you left the kids too)

14.  For a nominal fee you can hire someone else to clip them.

15.  He wouldn't like the lady next door just as well as he likes you if
she fed him 3 days straight. 


THE HORSE'S ADVANTAGE:

1.If they don't work out you can sell them.

2.They don't come with in-laws.

3.You don't have to worry about your children looking like them.

4.You never have to iron their saddle pads.

5. If you get too fat for one you can shop for a bigger one.

6.They smell good when they sweat.

7. You can repair their "clothes" with duct tape.

8. It's possible to keep them from "jumping the fence".

9.You can force them to stay in good physical condition...with a whip if
necessary.

10. They don't want their turn at the computer.

11. They turn white with age, but not bald.

12.They've never *heard* of PMS.

13. They learn to accept restraint.

Oh well, 15 to 13.  The husband still wins...
Especially when he doesn't complain when you reboot up the computer at 12
midnight because you thought of something else you wanted to post.
