A friend just forwarded this to me in an email, I thought it was cute and funny, so I'm sharing it with all of you. If you have something similar, please post it! I'm going to print this up for the stables.

All I need to know in life I learned from my horse:

When in doubt, run far, far away.
You can never have too many treats.
Passing gas in public is nothing to be ashamed of.
New shoes are an absolute necessity every 6 weeks.
Ignore cues. They're just a prompt to do more work.
Everyone loves a good, wet, slobbery kiss.
Never run when you can jog. Never jog when you can walk. And never walk when you can stand still.
Heaven is eating at least 10 hours a day... and then sleeping the rest.
Eat plenty of roughage.
Great legs and a nice rear will get you anywhere. Big, brown eyes help too.
When you want your way, stomp hard on the nearest foot.
In times of crisis, take a poop.
Act dumb when faced with a task you don't want to do.
Follow the herd. That way, you can't be singled out to take the blame.
A swift kick in the butt will get anyone's attention.
Love those who love you back, especially if they have something good to eat.

I don't know any horse jokes or anything like that, but that poem is really cute. I'm going to email it to my neighbor right now.

I love that line the best. Anything pet related like this I try and keep tabs out for, but have never seen any horse related until now.
