 day in full endurance regalia and one of the cowboys looked at her crupper 
 and said, "Oh that's why they hold their tails up like that.  Whaddya tie 
'em 
 up like that fer?"  LOL >>

response:

I am his wife and it was the funniest thing I ever heard when this guy said 
this to me!  I just laughed because they have no clue, and wouldn't want to 
hear it if you wanted to explain, about how well trained, how well 
conditioned and how much longer our horses will probably live then theirs.  
Ignore it!  And laugh!  And every time you hear some derogatory comment about 
your Arab from a guy on a quarter horse, just quietly think to yourself the 
words "Peanut Pusher"!  Yes, I stole that one from Tammy at Trailrite!  
Thanks Tammy!
