    Hello from Deep East Texas

    2.5" in Stonewall LA yesterday and night before, the ground is like walking on a sponge. We need a break so hay can be cut

    A big shout out to my Amish neighbors

    most of their horses are not skinny, they are using horses, to feed poorly or misuse them is not a good practice if you need to use one for transportation. A road horse is far different than a cops horse. Some of the road horses do get padded shoes but again most are shod in the most effective...

    you will get a lot of resets on them and you are correct about traction

    A big shout out to my Amish neighbors

    Long ago I traded a lot with the Amish, they do likefast road horses and will buy a lot of the standard bred horses that don't make it on the track but are still fairly fast. You will see a lot of them on the look out for prospects at the New Holland sale barn

    My new tipper

    When I first started going to AU there was still some manufacturing and I was amazed you could still get what we refer to as an El Camino from Holden over there. Sadly Holden went away. It seems to me like almost everything over there except for high-end cars come from Asia. My clients in the...

    What cow horse stud to breed to 7 AQHA rope mares.

    Over the years we have raised some very nice cow horses by a variety of stallions. Smart Chic Olena has been a great horse for us to use, he seemed to cross well on anything. Today's horses are getting better and better. The High Brow Cat horses have made a big influence and certain ones like...

    A big shout out to my Amish neighbors

    those boots don't last too long with heavy rad use, a lot of the Amish use boron tipped shoes to prevent sliding on pavement, when I once made the mistake of living in NY state and worked with standard breds we also used boron in the winter to keep them from slipping on snow and ice

    Marijuana

    If you talk with very many of the people who attend or have attended rehab you will find out the effects of what started their addictions, (although some personalities seem to be more affected along with the environment) Alcohol I think is a big issue with them because of accessibility followed...

    Marijuana

    Everything has a place and purpose, morphine and cocaine have medicinal effects as well but that doesn't mean everyone should take it at will

    Marijuana

    The "legal" thing has always been a joke, years ago after CA passed the medical marijuana law I attended a convention in Huntington Beach and afterwards took a walk, I was approached by 4 or 5 people asking if I needed to purchase a prescription

    Marijuana

    you will if they are driving a company vehicle and the opposing lawyer is aggressive. You don't have to believe it, just research it and see if you would be willing to accept the liability just so one of your employees wants to smoke dope

    Marijuana

    Yes a business owner can say no to marijuana and require random drug tests and it can be a fireable offense especially if that is put in writing in job descriptions despite marijuana being "legal" which it is not in any state due to federal laws, it is just accepted

    Marijuana

    I don't think that is the issue being discussed. Neither is good for you (the non THC versions are not the same as smoking a joint if that needs to be discussed), it is the timing and effects of either product. If a guy gets hammered on booze in the evening and goes to sleep for 8 hours then...
