I had one for a couple years, best winter ‘coat’ I’ve ever had! You probably shouldn’t wear it with just a t-shirt underneath in the freezing snow, but with a sweater - you could wear that in the freezing rain for a while!

Thank you for saying this! My tail bone doesn’t bend with the rest of my spine and I wanted to say what helps me, but stopped myself. What helps me (primarily things that force a curve in my lower back), is probably going to make a lot of back issues worse. Gotta figure out the cause before coming up with a solution.
Good job! That can be a ton of work, and rather tedious. I’m sure it feels much better having it done. I recently went through about 10 years of photos, looking to make prints. Not something I’d suggest putting off for that long, lol. Felt great after it was done though!
The pizza was delicious 😊
Thanks for asking! I’ve actually been inventorying my mineral collection today, trying to keep fresh content for my magazine, lol. Minerals@kbin.social Started soaking one of my specimen, to clean the rust off of it.
Now I have some French bread pizza in the oven for dinner.
Have you been having a good day?
The problem is, I never really have anything to say that’s worth contributing 😢
In your Western scenarios, I don’t think it would be anywhere near a clean getaway most of the time. Horses do tend to behave differently for different riders. A very well trained horse may handle the new rider better, but most horses tend to test new riders. The first couple rides on a new to you horse is both a learning experience and a power struggle. You don’t know exactly how that horse was trained, and the horse usually wants to see what it can get away with. You might find out the owner doesn’t use some standard cues, and the horse might just take advantage of it get irritated with the confusion.
They know who their people are. In your scenarios, it’s likely the horse only has one rider. Trying to hop on without it’s person there is going to confuse it. If you are good with horses and it’s trained in a conventional way, you’ll have a better chance at gaining control quickly. I still wouldn’t imagine galloping off immediately… That’s going to take time.
I really don’t know with the shooting dead question. If owner does a lot of yelling before/after the shooting, I don’t see it ending well. No arguing before hand, one clean shot to the head - might be more dependant on if the horse is gun trained. I know horses that couldn’t care less about fireworks and gunfire but will throw you over a plastic shopping bag blowing across the field or because she heard a noise coming from “that scary tree”.
I don’t know a good way to judge a horses temperament at a glance. You can get an idea of what kind of mood they’re currently in fairly quickly though. You can look at their muscle build and get an idea of how much they’re worked and if your good an idea of what kind of work. Different muscles will be toned differently depending on what they’re used for.
Hope that helps!
