That reminds me of a family deathbed story: An old female relative of my paternal grandmother (horsey Swedes from Montana)lay dying and her last wish was to feel the nose of a horse. So they led one to the window of her room and stuck its head through for her.

I’m thinking that school does some people good.

(The tortoise is real.)

This young man likes to smell each item in the grooming box before he uses it on the horse. He puts a brush to his nose, and just stands there, smelling it and smiling. It’s impossible to be impatient with him…he looks so happy.

And…you should buy Teddy-Bear Guy a Domokun:

That way he can be handicapped “in style”!
