Oh man. Breeder's Cup racer Landseer threw his jockey, ran loose, broke his leg and had to be destroyed.

But why couldn't it be fixed? Here's a horse named Barnaby, whose leg was amputated after it developed a muscular disease. A prosthetics maker fitted him with an artificial leg and now he enjoys an easy life.

The Joe Theisman pencil sharpener has nothing on this. hideous

Man that just creeps me out!

Griff & I watched the same late-night TV in the late 80s.

I defy anyone here to find and post Gary Larson's Horse Vet Student from Farside. It can't be done. Thats right, I'm calling you out Nic! :)

What we're lookin' for ...
 

Gary Larson's "Horse Veterinarian" cartoons. My favorite is "Doris, like all vet students breezes through Chapter 9".

In the panel you see an open book with a list of equine diseases and their 'treatments': Every single entry in the treatment column is "shoot".

By the way, it looks like that jockey won't ride again. Why is it they never shoot the jockey?

Thats referred to as the Glen Campbell effect, too small a target.

Well so much for that plan

Or as one of the fourms I'm on would say
