euthanized this morning....a sad story...

[heftysmokes]

That's weird that you posted this BPP. I had just read that they tried yet another surgery on this horse and all I could think was, "Isn't this enough suffering?" I actually was about to start a thread and ask what people thought about the ordeal and POOF, it's a moot point.

Whew boy. Man what a story - tough ending.

I agree....when is enough, enough? As hard as it is to say goodbye, sometimes it has to be done.

that horse's semen was worth more than my whole assets + my future assets+ j-lo's ass and my transformer collection combined.

I hate to admit it...but on any given night in college I was trying to give it aw.....shut yo mouth
