HORSES
VS. HUSBANDS
GOOD THINGS ABOUT HUSBANDS:
1. Husbands are less expensive to shoe than
horses.
2. Feeding a husband doesn't require
anything that even mildly compares with the hassle of putting up hay.
3. A lame husband can still work.
4. A husband with a bellyache doesn't have
to be walked.
5. Husbands don't try to scratch their
heads on your back.
6. They are better able to understand puns.
7. If they are playing hard to catch, you
*may* be able to run them down on foot.
8. They know their name.
9. They usually pay their own bills.
10. They apologize when they step on your
toes.
11. No saddle fitting problems.
12. They seldom refuse to get into the
vehicle.
13. They don't panic - running and yelling
all through the house when you leave them alone (unless you've left the kids with them
too!).
14. For a nominal fee, you can hire someone
else to clip them.
15. They don't like the lady next door just
as well as you, just because she fed him for 3 days straight.
THE HORSE'S ADVANTAGE:
1. If they don't work out you can sell
them.
2. They don't come complete with in-laws.
3. You don't have to worry about your
children looking like them.
4. You never have to iron their saddle
pads.
5. If you get too fat for one, you can shop
for a bigger one.
6. They smell good when they sweat.
7. You can repair their "clothes"
with duct tape.
8. It's possible to keep them from
"jumping the fence".
9. You can force them to stay in good
physical condition with a whip if necessary.
10. They don't want their turn at the
computer.
11. They may turn white with age, but never
go bald.
12. They have never heard of PMS.
13. They learn to accept restraint.
14. They don't care what you look like as
long as you have a carrot or an apple.
