April 15, 2008: Faster, Faster.....

Run what ya brung.
It seems the world over, people want to see how fast they, and their critters, can go.

Remember the cartoon of the rocket up the water buffalo's butt?

I'm trying to figure out where that guy's other leg is in the bottom pic.

CHURCHILL, MANITOBA--Triple Krona threat
Sea Blitzen, bred at Claus Farm and driven
by Willie Toymaker (red silks, top center),
held the Canucky Derby pole position at
Churchill Downs and, coming out of the
starting gate, led the tightly packed field
by a nose.
In the end, though, the race would be won
a. by a Lapp.

[or]
b. by a foot (bottom).

The leg is in the dust, planted firmly on his scraping board. You can detect the faint outline of his shin between the red lines I've drawn.

I think the leg is behind the cow. You can see two parts of it.

I can appreciate why the guys in the first picture are wearing gas masks.

too bad they cut the antlers off of the deer. That would have made a much more impressive picture if they had huge racks on them. Like that famous National Geographic Laplander image.

I agree with glatt. See the two visible leg parts; the natural, balanced stance; and the part where "rear hoof 2" is seen against the leg.

I admit I was less concerned about the man's missing leg than the presence of what glatt helpfully labeled Rear Hoof 1. Startled, I mean. I mean, Yikes.
