^ It seemed very unnecessarily bitchy. Analise is always very nice and polite. Keiran may be dirty sometimes, but he's healthy and happy and --- OMIGOSH! --- has pasture access! Anyone who can be snakry about a horse who has pasture access being dirty, well.... I have four dirty horses right here that can use a good grooming. Probably would require three times a day, especially the pinto. Thank goodness we don't have as much orange clay here as we did where I lived last. Seems kind of silly to bathe a horse a few times a day during the winter or stick them in a clean stall or sand lot just to keep them looking clean all the time.

I was going to edit for MSAR to Callisto's post, but I guess it responds just as well to Erika's.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

People with true credibility and integrity don't need to tell other people how great they are. They also don't need to belittle other people to feel superior.
