Urgent Notice:



Potential Danger of Horse Hair...This is a public service announcement...


In a press release today, the National Institute of Health has announced the discovery of a potentially dangerous substance in the hair of horses.This substance, called "amobacter equuii" has been linked with the following symptoms in females:

· Reluctance to cook, clean or do housework.

· Reluctance to wear make-up, good clothes or heels.

· Reluctance to spend money on home or car repairs until after "baby has new shoes, pad, blanket, tack, grain, hay & supplements".

· "Amobacter equuii" usually results in long hours away from home andexhaustion which may lead to a loss of physical contact with otherhumans (especially husbands).

· "Amobacter equuii" is thought to be addictive, driving the need for additional sources - this may lead to a "herd mentality" or, like the potato chip commercial, "you can't have just one".

Beware! If you come in contact with a female human infected by this substance, be prepared to talk about horses for hours.

Surgeon General's Warning: Horses are expensive, addictive, and may impair the ability to use common sense.

"Amobacter equuii" is usually found in females but can occasionally infect males as well.

I've seen it many, many times.

When aggravated by the addition of an English saddle the patient will revert back to the functionality of a 4-year-old and will be of little or no use to society. The patient will display overt signs of "I know everything about any kind of horse" mentality which will be little-tolerated by anyone within 20 feet of the afflicted individual, particularly cow-hands, ranchers and western types.

Good cow horses are cheap here. I bought 3 cracker mares at the sale before last and was goin to buy some at the last sale but there was nothin I liked but 15 month old geildin. He's nice and has several gates. I've got 2 of the three mares bred. Somebody stop me before I buy again! We also have 4 paints and a quorter horse mare. She's bred to san peppy stud. Its sure an adiction. But my youngins love them. That's all that matters.

Justin, you have no idea!! And men get it too, maybe worse. H has way more bridles than horses. Should that mean something?
