Default We humans are a stupid breed

SPorts provide an escape from mundane existence.
This country could not possibly have been built without the horse.
There is some degree of a wild wild west mentality in the fabric of the country-
it is not surprising to me in the slightest the outpouring of sympathy these animals receive when they break down and I obviously do not think it is idiotic, I think it is what you would expect.

Local news just finished-8 people shot in the city last night-do I feel badly for them of course-but I feel just as badly for myself having to live with this shit-

now pretend i know nothing abt racing-

hell yea I am going to be upset when my escape from the shootings all of sudden snaps a leg.


I am happy the horses capture the collective imagination of the world it enables me some entertainment and hopefully extra funds.
