Photo #24: Horse of Course


Hello all, I took this photo to prove that I live where the not so wild horses roam. Mission accomplished. I've got to head back to the game now. Football, Sweden-Malta, and Sweden leads by 4-0. Not a very exciting game but it's still football. (soccer!!!) Uh... Yes. Sometimes we slaughter our little Swedish horses and put them on our sandwiches after some slicing and dicing. Good stuff! More about the horse eating business here.

There is a ferocious ongoing debate in the U.S. over the right or wrong of hippophagy (or making a meal out of Ol’ Lightnin’). But the reality is that people have been eating horse meat for as long as people and horses have shared the same lands, and most countries around the globe would no more consider banning horse meat for human consumption than they’d outlaw onions.

Those horses could be cows in drag. Or the photo could be digitally manipulated. Or it could be that you paid some neighbors to dress up for the purpose of fooling Superblog!!'s loyal readers. Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last?

You're crazy - spider crazy! I wouldn't trust a Maltesian as far as I could throw him. And that can't be more than 20 feet, tops.
