I'm going there, AGAIN!!
How can I post another SHARK video, I am such a deranged tree-hugger/pussy/vegan/more expletives than you can shake a sock at... Quick, where's my chequebook, I gotta send SHARK/PeTA/HSUS some money!! That'll fix everything! sigh.
But ya know, the thing is, I saw this already, on CBC-TV, our most bestest esteemed Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's coverage of the Calgary Stampede. This is the "high" point of every show. People LOVE to watch kids being dragged around by ponies, ponies falling on kids, kids falling off and under ponies, kids wrestling ponies to the ground! It's hilarious, it's a blast!! Did you see that one girl, looks like she broke her neck! AWESOME!!
sigh. Why do you think my horse light has burnt out? (Besides the obvious!) Because as long as THIS is funny, I am not going anywhere near a barn. Or a horse. Or a pony. I'm too ashamed of my species to look them in the eye. Well, that, and my own deep sense of guilt &/or sorrow for so many of the horses I've known. Horse baggage can be pretty heavy, ya know.
I have finally accepted I have a minority sense of humour. Some might even say I have no sense of humour. Ah well. As long as I can make myself laugh, I'll be alright. As long as there are dogs smiling at me, I'm good.

I cannot say I enjoy these races I find them silly and a waste of time, that said if you turn down the sound of the pompous ass doing the commentating it is somehow less annoying. I agree there are abuses out there, but I swear SHARK could take a video of a dog getting a belly rub and voice it over as abuse
OH, I agree. I never ever watch SHARK without turning the volume off. And really, the CBC commentary was worse.
The one thing I really wonder about is this- who lets their animals go long enough without human contact, that they are like this? Haltered and running like a scared wet cat? And who lets their kids make the decision to get pummeled by such an animal? Wow. Just Wow.
