I usually don't comment on things like this. I must be having one of those days PMS days where "little" things bother me, so I decided to post. I have seen quite a number of ads lately where the word - infamous - is used. I am assuming the people using this word to describe their horse really don't know what it means. Here is the definition from the dictionary:
INFAMOUS - 1. Having a bad reputation: NORTORIOUS. 2. Causing or deserving infamy.
3. LAW. Convicted of a crime, as treason or felony, that results in infamy.
For those that don't know what infamy, it is: 1. Evil fame or reputation. 2. The state of being infamous. 3. A publicly known criminal or evil act.
NOW, FOR THE LIFE OF ME, WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO USE THIS WORD TO DESCRIBE THEIR HORSE?

Okay, I am off my soap box.
SORRY EVERYONE, I JUST HAD TO VENT!
