horse’s ass

This is the latest style in horse grooming. I saw all kinds of patterns shaved into different horse rumps today at work. We were spreading sand on a riding ring down in Woodside and there were more horses than a harness race milling around. They shave the whole body except where the saddle sits and some decorative finish in the right rear flank. I was afraid to put my rake down and ask a rich person why, so it remains a mystery to me still.


Rusty wouldn’t have the least idea why either…
This is the latest in footwear for Rusty Sunshine. I asked him why he was wearing white Reeboks, and he said, “They’re James. He won’t be usin ‘em.”

“Why’s that?” I ask. “He back in rehab?”

“Three years in jail,” Rus explained. So there’s Mr. Sunshine in someone else’s shoes. Something very few of us have done. James went in for repeat offenses of DUI, if you were wondering. Hit three cars this last time. Kep on goin. Let that be a warnin.

  1. I love that guy. He’s like Neil Young’s even more down to earth twin brother. When are you going to put a ring on that finger?
