Note to self: a horse can bite your arm (or hand) off.

Stallions can be very vicious...We had a Shetland and kept (rented a stall for) a Strawberry Roan, could not turn your back on them.

You're from Trinidad? I've been there on a mission trip. It was great-- we got threatened by muslims even!

So, too, can a hearty game of tug-o-war (not for the squeamish)

I suspect that "Java in Flight" has some behavioral issues.

If this horse was a doctor, he would be given a medal by Planned Parenthood. Sure it wasn't a donkey?

My mother is from there, Port-of-Spain specifically. Everything in my house is Trini except the food which my father drew line at because there's no such thing as curry italian meatballs.

The muslims have been trying to take over Trinidad for years. Right now, Abu Bakr (sp?) is on trial but that's not stopping his followers. Trinidad is now on the Al Queda watch list because of the heavy influx of Pakistanis. I know things will be okay since someone is broadcasting Rush Limbaugh via a pirate radio station *LOL*

The most striking thing about Trinidad, to me, was the forwardness of people about their faith. The Christians were unmistakable. The Hindus were obvious, with the prayer flags and pictures of different gods. It's such a prominent issue in their society.

I didn't encounter any Muslims on a conversational basis. They just yelled at us and waved machetes. But I don't imagine that they mingle socially either.

The muslims don't socially mingle, not the religious ones anyway. If a muslim goes to carnival or anything, then that is a complete MINO. After a few glasses of the demon rum resistance to assimilation is utterly futile anyway. Christians and Hindus are more likely to socially mix, hang out together, etc.

Donkeys and burros are kept with horses to calm them.

If somebody placed an SUV in the stall with the pony, would PETA consider it cruelty to an animal or would Ralph Nadar claim the vehicle unsafe?

I knew an 87 year old man that was in the habit of feeding his horses carrots.

One day he took a leak in the corral and one of them bit his clinton off. :(
