FreeRepublic Saddle Club thread! - Thread 12

Posted on 08/07/2007 7:33:14 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

The FreeRepublic Saddle Club - (very out of date) Who's Who *pics*

This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share, usually about our horses, sometimes about our dogs, gardens and other stuff we do. :~)

I have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and MissTargets will ping everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list.

So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends.

LOL..

Well, since I don’t have to go to town first thing to work on the books in the morning I’m going to ride. Julia called earlier wanting to ride, so I called her back and she’s coming in the morning.

Our weather has cooled off really nice and is suppose to be nice again tomorrow. It was only in the 60’s this morning.

Mornin' Becky, and everyone! Looks like I might be coming down to OK after all!

Well the interviewing is done, and it looks like I have a second interview with a company that's right down the street from me. They make HPLCs, and I'd be doing quality control testing for their columns. Not the most glamorous job, and they'll try to put me on second shift which stinks a bit, but I can use it as an opportunity to go back to school and get my masters degree. And it's only 5 minutes away from my house, so really, second shift becomes less of an issue. Plus, they are really a fantastic company to work for, and I'd have less worries about layoffs.

I’m playing with my new DSL, testing to see how long it takes to do things. This is incredible:). I downloaded a couple of videos I took this morning...it was done by the time I went and got a fresh cup of coffee...

I took these more for the sound...Rocky talking at feeding time. It’s always cracked me up the sound he makes as soon as I walk out there to feed, and he keeps it up till the food is in the pan. The first one is when I’m walking out there, the second is him waiting for me to put it in the pan. They are very short, because I didn’t know how long it would take to load.

He’s funny:) Likes his groceries.

My horse is saddled, and I’m waiting on Julia. It’s a perfect day for riding, and I have the camera in my saddle bag:)

Good! Look forward to the pictures! It’s a little foggy this morning, will be sunny later they say, it would be a pretty good day to ride here too.

I don’t mind not being in the woods this weekend though.... too many tourists!

That’s great news, it would be nice to work 5minutes away - no long commute and a chance to go back to school :)

That was so cool - I could watch both of them. Maybe because they are so short? He’s got a really deep voice there, saying good morning and where the heck is breakfast.

Hot and dusty again here. This past week it's rained all the way around us, just no rain here. We haven't had moisture since about February - I don't think it's rained or snowed here since Sam was born. Snow up in the hills around us in March and April.

Leaves are already falling here and the dogs are shedding out getting ready for their winter coats I think.

We’re back from our ride. I took a few videos:)

http://s210.photobucket.com/albums/bb286/harleysowner/?action=view&current=100_1522.flv

Question about loading videos...I have two others that I’ve tried loading and the little bar will jump to 50% loaded real quick then doesn’t seem to go any further, is that normal? Am I not giving it enough time?

Why am I able to load and watch your videos when I cannot do so with others? Even if I let the others spend hours (it seems like) loading, they still play jerky. This is really strange to me but I'm enjoying whatever it is that you are doing differently. :)

Your videos load in seconds, play part way and stop, finish loading and then play the rest of the way. At the end, I can replay and watch it in it's entirety.

Fun with videos and new toys!

Hmmm... it seems like it should be a steady progression... I haven't had them freeze like that.
