Medux is right, krazy, I agree with all your points, but there is no point with some people. Honestly, it saddens me how off base some of you are. Keep it up.
Lol, I guess if you know nothing about horses it's lame. I used to dislike all of the equestrian stuff as well, but my girlfriend of two years owns a couple horses and competes in shows so I got into it a bit. Some of the events are actually quite exciting to watch. (ie. Jump offs) EVEN dressage can be entertaining if you have the best in the world doing it.
