I hate to have to click on a bunch of links to get somewhere, and I’m sure you do too, but rather than steal from other people AND have a post that’s several pages long, I thought I’d just give you links to some funnies I’ve found that you might enjoy. They’re worth every click:
“How Many Horses Does it Take to Change a Light Bulb?” from Bridlepath‘s blog
“If Horses Were Software” also from Bridlepath
“What Breed Horse Are You?” from a link on HorseApproved‘s site. Not technically funny, but interesting for sure.
“The Famous Squirrel Story” – this one will have you giggling out loud, so if you’re at work, you’ve been warned. From Shady Acres, the website of Susan Evans Garlinghouse, a veterinarian and equine nutrition expert.
“Mr. Hand” – this entertaining take on sheath cleaning was written by Patricia Harris and has been extensively reprinted Web-wide (including here on this site), so I’m not sure where the original posting might be. But thank you, Ms. Harris, wherever you are, for an hysterically funny yet very educational piece of horse lore.
I’m sure many of you have found some too. Bring ‘em on!
OMG, I just read Mr.Hand and that is hilarious. Glad I have mares!
I just stumbled across Mr Hand somewhere earlier this week. It is hilarious. Sheath cleaning is a terrible job so it’s nice to have a way to add some humor. I’m sure I will remember Mr Hand from now til forever on this yuk task.
How about the classic “Your Horses Are On Fire”?

I think Mr. Hand first appeared on rec.equestrian yonks ago but I’m not sure. When I was a kid taking lessons, I used to hear that ‘wonk wonk wonk’ noise whenever a gelding was trotting and my instructor would never tell me what it was.
Doe, thanks for the laugh, that “Your Horses Are On Fire” link was great! I can totally see that happening.
LOL, having boy horses is embarrassing sometimes.
Whoa! That was a hoot! Loved all those stories! The lightbulb bit is fantastic!
