On a more serious note, I was a very busy high schooler and NHS was a...

I'm a college student home for the summer (June-Aug) looking for a horse I could hack around a few days a week. I've been riding h/j for 7 years, and will be continuing with lessons at my home barn...

Ugh. I got a letter from them a few weeks ago with blatant lies about laboratory animals. I should add I spent all last semester working in a neuroscience research lab that used rats. So PETA can...

:) So I am currently sitting in my wet boots in the family room! It had been suggested to me before, but I didn't have the guts to do it. Luckily they don't look dry-so by the time my mother gets...

(Brief visit from h/j world) For all the people who wonder why you can't "stick to one discipline": many of the top eq horses have had quite a bit of dressage training (I've heard up to 3rd level...

To a girl in my lesson: "it's a good thing you don't want to do this for a living, because you really don't have the body type and you'd have a LOT of work to do!"

My personal favorite is the boarder who will swear up and down that she's "low maintenance" and "easy-going" but GOD FORBID one of her horse's two water buckets isn't brimming (when the horse isn't a...

Just because you can't force someone to wear their seatbelt doesn't mean you want to see their head split open on a windshield, regardless of whether you know them.

Wanna hear something ironic? ...

:eek:Holy cultural relativism batman! Don't get me wrong, I love my animals and I'm not about to go buy tickets to see a lion "riding" a horse. But calling 1.3 billion people savages?? ...

Currently college freshman majoring in Bio. The only thing I know about my future career is that it will not include med school :D

I think it's eh-quine and chaps, I think I remember the people at Penn State School of Agriculture saying "eh-quine" sciences.

Oh man, Holsteiner. Is there an h sound in there somewhere? And...

Well, this isn't a mistake, but a book I'm reading now has a character named Charles Owens :lol:

I've read that they tried jello mix powder, but the horses kept liking it off!

I'm really glad someone mentioned the Sara Gruen ones, they were a fun read but I was a little turned off by not one...

I've experienced this. When I was first getting started, it was butt out of the saddle almost always at the trot and ALWAYS at the canter. Sitting trot for maybe a lap around the ring once a week...

I came thisclose to falling off at the halt once. I was on this little witch of a pony mare and it was probably the most frustrating ride of my life. She had some kind of neurological thing...

I've groomed a bit and honestly, I'd prefer money over just about anything. Except maybe a car. Or a pony. If you must, get a little something interesting, but definitely not work related lol (oh...

Ok so this puts me in the minority but my trainer has had some success with an AC. The woman worked over the phone, never saw the horses. My trainer asks her something along the lines of "What's...
