so many WANT another great horse so bad. that's a big part of it. another part of it is huge egos. everyone wants to claim to be the one who got the scoop on said superhorse. so any above average effort is trumpeted as the warning shot fired by the next super horse.
and then some of us who call for patience are heckled and jeered for being sticks in the mud.


and i'm a confirmed eye roller. absolutely. if they certified stuff like that, i'd have that certificate framed and proudly displayed.

Maybe we should make a certificate up. It definately would be up on my wall. Heck, I may be awarded many times.
