Here you will find some funny horse jokes of the day!
A blonde bought two horses, and could never remember which was which.
A blonde decides to learn and try horse back riding assisted without any experience or lessons.
One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. * Believe in the 11th Commandment: "Inside leg to outside rein." HOW MANY MESSAGE BOARD HORSE OWNERS DOES IT TAKE TO CHANGE A LIGHT BULB? One to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed. Fourteen to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently. Seven to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs. Seven more to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs. Five to flame the spell checkers. Three to correct spelling/grammar flames. Six to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... Another six to condemn those six as stupid. Fifteen to claim experience in the lighting industry and give the correct spelling. Nineteen to post that this group is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a lightbulb (or light bulb) forum. Eleven to defend the posting to the group saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this group. Thirty six to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty. Seven to post URLs where one can see examples of different light bulbs. Four to post that the URLs were posted incorrectly and then post the corrected URL. Three to post about links they found from the URLs that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group. Thirteen to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too". Five to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy. Four to say "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?" Thirteen to say "do a Google search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs" Three to tell a funny story about their horses and a light bulb. AND One group lurker to respond to the original post 6 months from now and start it all over again. --When your stall is being cleaned, please don't go through the wheelbarrow --No matter how entertaining it may be to a horse to knock over a full --Jumping out into the barn aisle over the wheelbarrow will NOT get --It is not necessary to hide your manure so I have to sift through every --By the same token, the water bucket is not a commode, and the automatic waterer --The "lah-di-dah" attitude, "Drop it anywhere, I have a maid who comes in & takes --Neat freaks who manure only in one corner of the stall will get extra grooming --There will be no more unauthorized barn parties after lights out.
Please take this memo to heart, or learn how to clean up your own rooms! Dressage in the Year 2030
1. After changing the rules to allow riders to go topless, to
increase spectator interest, dressage is now getting more television
airtime than the AFL, cricket, tennis, swimming and golf combined. 2. After winning her 7th consecutive Olympics, Anky is now at the
heart of controversy once again, this time for training her horses
telepathically. 3. Average size of the typical Warmblood: 22.1 hands. 4. The new ruling regarding tack has determined the maximum
thickness of knee roll padding allowed is 23 cm. However, a last
minute convention decision has over ruled the ban on saddle
seatbelts, effective immediately. 5. After decades of breeding for huge gaits, and with the average
Warmblood standing 22.1 hands, the dressage arena dimensions have
again been expanded and now measure 180 meters x 90 meters, mostly
to allow room for the extended trot. 6. Only 6 qualified trainers remain in the entire world who are able
to train a horse from start to Grand Prix themselves. In related
news, the cost of a Grand Prix schoolmaster horse now averages
$US18.2million. 7. The FEI rulebook for dressage is now 118,346 pages long. Specific
guidelines are included for judging degrees of "behind the
vertical" and a new ruling now requires that every competition must
have at least two judges - one of whom is responsible only for
judging the head position (see article 848,976.93 section C). 8. The halt has been removed from all dressage tests. Piaffe,
passage and the extended trot now make up 76% of the Grand Prix
marks. 9. Although competitors are now allowed to compete treeless,
girthless, bitless (and now topless), the rules continue to require
stirrups. 10. Petrol now averages $13.50 a litre, and no vehicle manufacturer
has yet been able to produce a hybrid vehicle capable of hauling
even one 22+ hand horse. 11. Scientists are busy trying to figure out how to ship semen via
the Internet. In related news, it is rumored that a mare in England
has given birth to a foal - naturally. Scientists are stumped. 12. The FEI is currently holding another emergency meeting to decide
how to deal with cloning, after the fiasco at the last Olympics,
where there were 3 Bonfires, 4 Gigolos, 4 Gifteds, 6 Rembrandts and
2 Salineros (including "the original" Salinero, still competing in
his mid 30s, thanks to advances in veterinary medicine). In related
news, the FEI is expected to rule this month on which Gigolo was
really the bronze medal winner in 2028. Three horses are in the same stable one day and start bragging about how many races they've won.
The first says "Of the last 15 races I've ran, I've won 8 of them!" The other horses agree that
this is a good score. The second says "Well, of the last 24 races I've ran, I've won 16!" Again,
the horses agree that this is pretty good. Finally the last one says "Well, of the last 36 races
I've ran, I've won 27!" The horses think that is a great score. A greyhound dog who was sitting
back and listening came forward and said "I don't mean to brag, but of the last 90 races I've ran
I've won 80." The horses are clearly amazed as they stare at the old dog. Finally, one of them speaks.
"WOW!", he says, "A talking dog!" ~Laughs from the 'Net~ How to Interpret Classified Horse Ads BIG MOVER: Can't canter within a two-mile straight-away NICELY STARTED: Attended a "natural horsemanship clinic," but we don't have enough insurance to ride him yet, especially outside the round pen. TOP COMPETITOR: Won a second place 5 years ago at a show with unusually low entries due to tornado warnings. HOME BRED: Knows nothing despite being raised on the back porch. BIG BONED: Good thing he has a mane and tail or he would be mistaken for a cow. NO VICES: Especially when he wears his muzzle (and when in the round pen). BOLD & SPIRITED: Runaway. GOOD MOVER: Runaway. NEEDS INTERMEDIATE RIDER: Runaway. ATHLETIC: Runaway (but looks good doing it). SHOULD MATURE 17 HANDS: Currently 15 hands; dam is 15.2, sire is 15.3, but will defy his DNA. WELL MANNERED: Hasn't stepped on, run over, bitten, or kicked anyone since our twelve-year-old neighbor, who we paid to ride him, quit. RECENTLY VETTED: Someone else found something really wrong with him during soundness exam. TO GOOD HOME ONLY: Not really for sale unless you can: 1) pay twice what he's worth; 2) are willing to sign a 10-page legal document of release; and 3) allow current owner to tuck in beddy-bye every night. LIGHT CRIBBER: We can't afford to build any more fences and barns for this buzz saw. EXCELLENT DISPOSITION: Never been out of the stall (or the round pen) and never had any pressure of any kind on him. CLIPS, HAULS, LOADS: Clippity-clippity is the sound his hooves make as he hauls butt across the parking lot when you try to load him. ~Handy Euphemisms for Falling Off Your Horse~ 1. Joining Airborne Equitation International (affectionately known as AAEEEEEEEEEI!). 2. I'm in a transitional relationship with my saddle. 3. Dirt for dessert. 4. High-fiving a nightcrawler. 5. Swan dive (water optional). 6. Spending a little quality time with gravity. 7. Checking your girth...from the bottom. 8. Doing the rootin' tootin', grass-scorching, scare-the-spectators boogie. 9. A quick trip to Dirtsville. 10. Trolling for paramedics. 11. Just seeing if the judge was paying attention. 12. A Richter-Scale-5 spot check of footing quality. 13. Insufficient flapping. 14. Studying impact craters at close range. 15. Spontaneous retrograde. 16. Pushing down daisies. 17. Turf surfing. 18. Incoming!! 19. A short step-over four feet south of Hermes, France. 20. Vulture baiting. ~The Husband or The Horse?
~HUSBAND ADVANTAGES: Husbands cost less to shoe than horses. Feeding a husband doesn't require anything that even mildly compares with the hassle of putting up hay. A lame husband can still work.
You don't have to chase them to get them to come inside. If your husband gets a stomach ache you don't have to walk him all night. Husbands may run up bills but they also help pay them. Husbands load easily into your vehicle. Husbands don't have to be fitted with saddles. You don't have to clip or bath them or trim their feet. Husbands don't try to scratch their heads on your back.
Husbands don't panic - running and yelling all through the house when you leave them alone. Husbands don't like the lady next door just as well as you, just because she feeds him treats every day. ~THE HORSE'S ADVANTAGE: You never have to iron their clothes. You never have to divorce them you can just sell them. Clothing repairs do not require sewing, just duct tape. You never have to share the TV or Computer with them. You can force them to stay in good physical condition. They may turn gray but NEVER go bald. They don't come with in-laws. They understand restraint. They don't care what you look like as long as you have a carrot or an apple. A simple fence keeps them in their OWN pasture. They never leave the lid up on the bathroom stool. They don't burp or keep you up all night snoring. Top 10 Signs Your Dressage Test Needs Some Work...

Drop heavy steel object on your foot. Don't pick it up right away. Shout, "Get off, stupid! GET OFF!" How to Worm a Horse:
1. Buy wormer paste.
2. Capture the wild beast -a.k.a- the horse.
3. Firmly grip lead rope in left/right hand (whichever you do not write with).
4. With your other hand insert wormer tube.
5. Pick yourself up off the ground and ask someone to hold your horse while you go to the emergency room to have your dislocated shoulder looked at.
6. Repeat steps 1-5, but duck this time as the back hooves somehow go flying past your head.
7. As your legs get twisted in the rope, try to stand up, only to have your legs pulled out from under you.
8. As soon as you spit out ALL the dirt you just ate, jump up and grab your horse.
9. Ponder why this is not working. 10. Repeat steps 1-5 and 6, but this time go home, change into a shirt that does not have apple- flavored wormer paste all over it and proceed to go to the feed store and buy another tube.
11. When you get back to the barn, see the manager's 10-year-old son walking over to you.
12. Let him take the worming tube from your hand, and watch in disbelief as he worms your horse without getting a single spot of the paste on himself, and there is no dirt on his face, and he's not in the emergency room.
13. Put your horse back in the barn and go home to your nice warm bed. Hardy Acre's Equine 2000-2008 All rights reserved. No part of this website may be reproduced without my permission | ||||
