    Personally, I find elegance and dressing with class to be highly overrated (as evidenced by what I look like at the barn).

    However, when it comes to sheets, obviously I am not alone. :-)

    I've heard that when pulling a horse trailer, one should put the towing vehicle in first, second, third, etc. rather than having it in "Drive," as supposedly it's easier for the towing vehicle to...

    Not waterproof :-(
