We've all heard of the Dewey Decimal System for book classification in libraries. What I Juan-na know is, is this the Derring Decimal System for classifying the height of horses? Wink Smile

Good information to know!
Sounds like I've had a gilding or two along this line - - V_Key loves to eat at this one spot in town - when we're there the stories always get around to one I had "Ol Fooler" - he'd lay in wait for ya - ever Old Timer has his personal story about "Fooler" and how he'd gotten to them - - I loved that Good Lookin - Ol horse but No One else could ride him for long and some good hands tried.

Not that I was that good - it's just that SOME are born with the ability to, as I say, "Feel A Horse Thinking" and I was one of those Lucky People.

Ol Fooler would start ta think an a just Little Leg and Spur would keep his mind busy in other directions. Ya had ta stay awake on Fooler - He could feel ya not thinking in his direction and "BAMM"

I must-a sold Fooler 15 times and always got him by a guy wearing a cast on some bodypart - Head low and "You Told Me"
