HA! I, too, would rather watch chariot racing than that "damned ribbon twirling nonsense"! Today's Olympics HAVE morphed into something entirely different. It's a shame really. I enjoyed watching the amatures competiting. I don't recall amature equestrians EVER competiting...not TRUE amatures like the majority of us. Oh well...back under my rock. ===== Susan Young Casey, Princess of Pink, LIW, RRHA, RHS Semper Obliquo (Always aside) Glenndale Grace Farm, Ft Gibson, Oklahoma U.S.A. "Ride on!
