Location: Taichung, Taiwan | I have a friend who rode a dead horse. It was his last ride as the old mare was drug by the tractor to a horse sized hole. He said it was the fastest that old horse had gone in years.
Ops! This isn't ending on a positive note is it? Maybe this story will inspire a songwriter out there! |

Location: Converse, Texas | You can send dead flowers to a dead horse... Is that ending on a positive note? Better yet, sign the card Glen Campbell. Now we can end on an official OFC note. :eek: |

She'd carried many a man and his wife
But eventually she died
And for her last ride
She was towed to a hole on a slide"
If somebody wants to do something with this, go to it..... :)

I usually have a nack for ending a string, but this is a tough one.
I also remember Quickdraw McGraw once singing "I've been so lonesome in the saddle since my horse died". |
