Don't have a horse either but I do have a German Shepherd. (He sends doggy kisses but in a very professional manner...) I must say the Friesians are magnificent! I think we missing out on a lot of good horse action in this country because, like high fashion, we tend to focus on the sleek and trim race horses and overlook the draft horses--unless they're connected to draft beer--altogether. Are there other draft horse breeds of note?

When you're spread a little less thin, the par-tay's back and hopping.

I have never been a part of a fan forum before, i was never really interested in the web, so this is my first! i stumbled into fff.net by total accident and i am incredibly grateful that i did. i love it here becuase everyone is so nice and genuinely interested and concerned for each other. it really feels like a family here. i love coming on and catching up with whats going on with everyone and i feel cheated if i don't have the opportunity to do so during the day.
the community on this site is just as real to me as real life communities i am a part of. i have never really made friends easily, mainly cause the mainstream kinda people i've always been stuck with always think i'm really weird, and i don't relate well to others...so i don't really have a lot of friends, which is fine. but i truely feel as though i have finally found the people i was always meant to be friends with here.
i love my firefly family!

I think that sums it up so well JQ! I try to explain to folk who are not 'in this corner of the verse' that it's not just about a TV show - it's about making connections with people and talking about things that matter to each one of us and no matter what comes our way we're here for one another and we hold... When someone can't get here for a while (*blows a kiss in Oddsbodkins direction*) we keep the home fires burning, and when someone needs advice or support (*hugs CoPilot*) and when we have something good to share we celebrate it here!

My computer went bersek... sorry but I was just getting on to saying Hi to all those who've been posting...
*hugs NVG* - you deserve better than someone who'll play mind games just because she knows she's got under your skin! I'll come and do some bappin' with MsG any time you say the word (though it might have to be next September...)
*hugs MsG* hope you are feeling so much better my Darlin' girl! Tell MisterG from me that he can share everything with you but his nasty virus's... 
ShinyKitten I love the Aussie invasion here! It's so shiny that we are growing in numbers - it makes this a true global community! And I have another someone to chat with when all the Yanks are asleep...
Mei Mei! You are the shiniest - I love you... just love you! (can't wait to meet!!)
Nico - my little Aussie brother - what would I do without you? Thanks for the cold shower by the way!!
Tristan - we miss you when you are not about!! Take care sweetheart!
Penguin - thank you for keeping me happy when the site was down!
Keep pondering peoples...

Morning, imponderable-ers!
Coffee--check!
Internet connection--check!
FFF.net--check!
Imponderable thread--working on it...
SBDB, that is a good idea. A small badge with a question mark overlaid on top of the male and female signs, maybe? That would be shiny.
NVG, that job offer sounds pretty good! Did they give a deadline on it? As far as getting back in shape...you are in fine shape, brudda. I would not want to have you even displeased at me!
Mink, I totally sympathize with you. Firefly has become a major part of my life, along with all the other Browncoats on this site. When I try to explain it to the uninitiated, I find that words are inadequate. It's a gut-love, and it's something we have to be part of to understand.
I also feel the same way about being online. I have a much more active social life here than I do IRL...and I don't mind it so much. I know that I will one day meet most of the people I talk to here, and that gives me something to look forward to.
Copilot, there has been a lot of good advice put forth on this thread...I really can't add anything beyond that my thoughts will be with you!
Horses...I'm still a big fan of the Ardennes:
Pretty, pretty horse...and big, too!
Hey, Magda! Nice new banner! I meant to comment on that yesterday.
Alright, time to wander off and find more coffee.

Don't you just love draft horses...they're so cuddly:) I shall have to find good pics of Tink and her baby Diesel ( half Clydesdale half Percheron) He is such a cutie pie...we've raised him from birth and he has a very golden retriever disposition ( sadly he also belives he's an over large lap dog due to all the hand rearing)
FMF- so lovely to see if only for a brief flash.
NV- welcome to the joy that it the politics of difficult kids. It's really frustrating, but if you can manuever around it and actually help someone, very worth it. Seriously though there are days when you begin to wonder if our judicial system isn't just a really demented practical joke.
Mink- so eloquent, but what would one expect from a brilliant legal mind ( you are a lawyer right?)
Jonny- you're such a doll
Magda my darlin HUGS and HUGS again!!!
I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

Well, the Friesian isn't really a "draft" breed (Shire, Clyde, Percheron, Suffolk Punch, Belgian, etc) any longer. It is descended from draft breeds, but Arabian blood, by way of Andalusians, was introduced to lighten the draft horse. It has mainly been used as a carriage horse until recently where it is enjoying a lot of popularity in dressage circles.
Speaking of Andalusians or PRE: This is one of the top dressage horses in the world today:
That's Invasor and Rafael Soto.
And another:
They are an very impressive pair. I'm not really into these heavier breeds as they aren't known for doing what I do, but they are still absolutely beautiful. I happen to prefer the Andie over the Friesian, who still exhibits too much cart-horse characteristics for my taste.
