    My living will

    I, flaboy, flaboy-, and flaboy+ , being of sound mind and body, do not wish to be kept alive indefinitely by artificial means. Under no circumstances should my fate be put in the hands of pinhead politicians who couldn't pass ninth-grade biology if their lives depended on it, or lawyers /...

    Riddle me this

    You know I understand the logic behind saddle fitting but riddle me this. How come we used to buy our saddles out of the Roebuck catalog, ride our horses 8-10 hours a day up to 4 days a week, and never had one problem with sores or irritated backs. Heck, all I hear now when someone says their...

    Crazy Cow

    Well, I finally got the old crazy cow in the trailer. Had some left over calves from last year that I waited to haul until Jan. Managed to get the crazy cow in the pen. This is the one that attacked me 5 times the last worming session. I went down Monday morning trying to figure out how I was...

    Whatever happened

    Anyone remember the gal who got her truck stuck and couldn't figure out how to get it out. Seems she was going to wait for summer for it to dry up enough to drive it out. Wonder if she ever got it out.

    Horse Training work?

    I got your attention huh? Some may remember my experience with my Idiot when I first got him at 13-14 months old. He was a stud and proceeded to charge me twice the first day I had him. Kicked me once and did some other stuff. That's where he got the name Idiot. Well the old boy now 24 months...

    One rein training

    Just wondering what experiences some of you may have had with this technique. I went back to the basics recently on the "green broke" 3YO. He did ok. I could stop him from a run but had to stay in his mouth. For a few days I did nothing but one rein him in the round pen and a small turn out...

    Slinging head

    One more thing on Bronco Skip (his name is Skipper). He sometime wants to throw his head around. Usually when I am working on reining practice. I am using a full cheek snaffle bit. He sometimes wants to fight it. Other than that he carries his head in good position. Should I put a German...

    This must stop!

    We Must Stop This Immediately! Have you noticed that Stairs are getting steeper. Groceries are heavier. And, everything is farther away. Yesterday I walked across the pasture and I was dumbfounded to discover how long it had become! And people are less considerate now, especially the young...

    Bronco Skip

    Well, I bout got throw-ed last night. Took the new guy for a spin to work on steering and braking. After a while he was doing ok so I thought I would get him out of 1st gear. A little tap on the flank with a stick and he picked up pace. The second or third tap he got into a stiff trot that I...

    Crowder and Warpaint

    Two Tennessee Boys... Crowder and Warpaint are walking down the street, and they see a sign on a store which reads, "Suits $5.00 each, shirts $2.00 each, trousers $2.50 each. Crowder says to his pal, "Warpant, Look here! We could buy a whole gob of these, take'em back to Soddy-Daisy...

    Hay

    God smiled on this poor old boy so far. Due to lack of rain I was only able to cut one field earlier this year (not growing). We finally got some rain but I had to wait for the grass to recover. Took last week off and managed to get 40 tons of Bahia in the barn without it getting wet from...

    Pic Idiot in training

    Well here is my Idiot in training. He is really a spooky horse so I have been working him with various items. He is coming along but working the spook out of him is a tough job. I have noticed an attitude change in him since I brought Skip home. Skip don't take no crap and actually puts this...

    Pic's new boy

    Well some of you know I had to get rid of a filly as she had a health problem. I found this boy and brought him home. He seems to have his head screwed on pretty good. Not like my Idiot. He has what I call a head space issue. That is, his head gets in my space to often. Does a little lipping...
