RE: [RC] Ridecamp Convention - Laurie UnderwoodI'm proud to know someone with such a fertile imagination, especially since I'm somewhat lacking in that department! Do we vote in private posts to you Angie, or post to Ridecamp? Laurie Underwood -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of rides2far@xxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2004 8:56 AM To: sandrawalker@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] Ridecamp Convention O.K. since so many of us are sitting at home...let's make the best of it. This evening, at about 7:30 Reno time, thank your lucky stars that you don't have to find an outfit that's sort of shiny/evening type/formal/western and that you don't have to try to put on your makeup in such a way that it won't alarm people who are used to seeing you with no make-up. Go somewhere to eat that does not involve a line or cost $25. Come back to your computer screen and let's have the Ridecamp awards. Suggested Awards: 1. Most posts (someone who enjoys doing searches can figure this one out. Man I hope it's not me) 2. Best advice giver: 3. Fireman award: (given to the person who is best at defusing volatile situations) 4. Arsonist: Person most likely to stir up a volatile situation. 5. Most profound quotes: 6. Most amusing typos: (would be nice if presenter could cut and paste example) 7. Best ride story 8. Best new idea: Should involve inventing a new way to use some piece of ride related (for crew or rider) object. May involve using a non-horsey object in a horsey way. 9. Best debater: (should go to the person who is most likely to go back to the archives and cut/paste a reply which is impossible to refute since they use a person's own words to prove their point) 10. Most helpful researcher: For the person who is most likely to research a newcomer's pedigree if they ask, or explain how inherited color works, etc. 11. Most valuable free advice giver: For the expert who gives advice freely that one would have to pay for otherwise. 12. Most entertaining exploits: For the poster who has interesting travels, or interesting exploits on mundane travels. 13. Best signature line. (give example) 14. Best e-mail address 15. Best foreign correspondent (must live in that country) 16. My quiet husband Bill suggested an award for the "best lurker". I'm not sure how we can get votes on that one since you lurkers refuse to post. I'm thinking on it though.

A professor at UC Davis named Morey Fowler became interested in this and wondered how it would work on horses and started testing it. Dr. Fowler was at one time the head vet at Tevis. A young vet named Kerry Ridgeway worked with him on this project helping to collect the data...........and as they say, the rest is history... ~ mb ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
