This month has been a tragic one for those of us who follow thoroughbred racing. We have lost five of the greats, two of them today alone. Gone West - He was euthanized on September 7 because of complications from colic surgery. He was one of the greatest sires standing in the last few...

I need the opinions on my car! A bit of background: I'm almost 25, just moved into a new place that I have to pay rent - before that I was working at a farm that included room & board. My car is making me very frustrated and upset. Over the last year I have had to deal with SO much crap about...

To all my fellow Canucks!

Could someone please look up an AMHA horse for me? Looking for pedigree, show record (if there is one) and foal record (if there is one). Horse is BHK Dynamic Prizm A 129640 Much thanks in advance!

I just realized that I haven't seen an Amy update in quite a while. I don't know if I've missed one or you just haven't had time to post one, but I would love to see how beautiful she is looking! Pretty please!

What are the signs of a black foal who will go gray? I'm having an argument with a woman about the colour of our foal. If you'd like to see the foal, please look at my thread in the Pony Talk forum. These are the signs of a gray foal as far as I know. Are there any others? Born deep black...

We had a welsh pony foal born on Friday. The sire is black, the dam is gray. The foal looks like it will not gray out to me, as I see no white hairs on her muzzle, flanks or around her eyes. The woman who's kids come and ride says that this filly will gray out because she has lighter hairs on...

I was just wondering if anyone on here has participated in the Big Sisters or Big Brothers program. I am speaking with the coordinator at my local office regarding this, though I am still deciding if I have the time to do it. If you have, could you tell me about your experiences with it? It's...

I need a translation of "Extra to take home for the family." into Russian by about 8:30 tonight. I found this one a free translator - дополнительный, чтобы забрать домой для семьи but it means (when translated back into English) "Additional to take away home to a family" or "Additional to...

One of the ponies got injured on Sunday (nothing too big, though it could have been - she somehow cut her bottom eyelid, but the eye is fine). That started the people I live with thinking more about the farm and whether they should keep it. He is 62 and she is 56. He is retired and does all the...

There was a Bald Eagle festival in my area today and at one of the sites, there was a booth set up for a falconry organization. For $5.00 you could hold and have a photo taken of you and a raptor. They had a Harris Hawk and a Barn Owl with them. The Harris Hawk has been my favourite hawk for...

This has got to be the cutest thing I've ever seen! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8LXQ...ture=rec-fresh

I'm considering getting a 2008 Pontiac Wave and I'm interested in the impressions of those who own a Wave or even a 2007/2008 Pontiac in general. I'm interested in any impressions, but I'm mostly interested in: Fuel Economy Environmental Impact Reliability Safety

I had my first fun match in Agility today! It was at my club's practice arena and it went SOO well!! My first run was in Starters Standard. Standard means that you have all the equipment (jumps, tires, weave poles, table, dog walk, teeter, A-frame, shoot and tunnels). I wasn't even going to do...

I have finished the final draft of my short story in time to enter it in a contest judged by my favourite author!!! I'm very proud of it and of me for actually finishing it! If you'd like to read it, PM me :D

We had a family reunion today and my cousin who had a baby this spring came of course. I asked when we first arrived if i could hold her son and she said "we kind of have this sitting to hold him rule". That's fine, bit paranoid, but whatever, your kid. Until I saw my sister holding him while...

For the last few years, I haven't been sure if I want to have kids ever. There are several reasons: a) I don't know if I have a sufficient reason for having kids. To me, bringing a child into this world (especially given the way it is) should be done for the right reasons. Having someone to...

My trip was amazing!!! After a fairly uneventful trip out (haha pretty much how you want it when you’re 39,000 feet up!) I finally got out to Kitchener. My friend, Dave, who I was there to see picked me up from the airport. On Saturday we went out to Port Stanley, a small sea town about a...

My cat, Lilo, loves suitcases, boxes, bags anything she can sleep in. She's always been like this. When she was a kitten she used to push all of my stuff out of my purse so that she could sleep in it. I'm leaving on Friday for Ontario and of course am packing. So...she has been trying to get...

There is a petition in support of ringing eight bells at the 2009 Kentucky Derby in tribute of the great filly who was euthanized at the derby two weeks ago. Here is an article giving information on this movement. Eight Bells for Eight Belles? "The phrase "eight bells" notes the ending of one...
