We have horses. There's ALWAYS something you need or want. How about a gift certificate to his favorite tack store? Or something special he wouldn't buy himself for riding? There's a lot of catalogs that cater to horse owners that have some really cool gifts. LOL, one of the gifts my 12 yo neice has on her Christmas list is a gift certificate to Tractor Supply, yeah I know, you might be a redneck if . . . .

that i used to ride race horses,
that i've been a crime victim more than once, that i'm a descendant of Eric the Red and Leif Erickson...gosh, lots more!!
and those horses are out there now, 10:54 a.m.
love it!!!! Love seeing the animals out there!! And what a beautiful sky this lovely morning!!! Lots of pink in the sky there. *S*
I think Hayseed's piglet and her horses....
are her CHILDREN.....and so she takes care of them like one takes care of their children....SHOOT - YA GOTTA GIVE HAYSEED TREMENDOUS KUDOS for all she does on her farm/land. I get to see the animals on her webcam and they are out there everyday several times a day. It takes me away (CALGON - TAKE ME AWAY) and I begin to feel like I'm in Maine (New England where my paternal family is from), which takes me away from summer and more summer in Florida where I currently live.
KUDOS TO HAYSEED!!!! 
Wow! How nice, really beautiful, you are lucky to have horses!...nm

rode race horses in the morning.
and MT'd at night -- the best of both worlds, with both my mind and body fit :)
i guess my worst job was working in a movie theater -- it required no skill whatsoever.
Good luck but horses don't change colors
I so get not wanting *to leave with regrets* - so do your thing and don't waste the same amount of time you might have prior!!
What about hiking the Adironack Trail...
a real through hike from beginning to end at age 56 and 59? Two my girlfriends are going to attempt it at the end of March beginning in Georgia. They're avid hikers, kayakers and spelunkers...adventurous souls. I take short day hikes with them when time permits as they're conditioning for the long trek. We all dress for weather and torrain, not fashionistas (ableit, we can glam up for social affairs)...hair long, short and midlength and we all sing and share different types of music and art....Some have traveled the world and I get to hear all the stories and get great postcards. Have some fun while you're here on this planet.  Cat
That's fantastic! It's Appalachian Trail BTW
I'm not being a spelling officer, I just wanted to clarify the name of the trail. I'm an avid Appalachian Trail hiker. (AT for short.) I've been hiking sections of the trail since I was 18, and will be doing a 100-mile section hike in Virginia this year. I'm 46 and plan to continue hiking this great trail for as long as I can put one foot in front of the other!
I walk a trail by my house with my dog a few times

To hike 150 miles to the Appalachian Trail
I love to backpack, but I haven't had time to do a nice long trip. I've gotten a lot of obligations off my plate this year, and will have time to go into the woods again. I already have a 70-mile trip planned for spring.
When I die and my survivors put up photos of me around the funeral home, I want most of them to be my smiling face as I stand on a trail with beautiful scenery behind me. :)

Larege amount of horses at packing plants/feed lots
coincidentally happen to be TBs. They are a huge throw-away market. Once they are done racing, unless they are one of the incredibly lucky few to be adopted out to knowledgable homes for other careers or are of breeding quality, they usually don't wind up in too good of a place afterwards. I'm a nobody, and I've had 3 of these throw-aways land in my lap. Yes, there are some responsible owners/breeders who ensure these animals are taken care of for the rest of their days, racing career or not, then there are an awful lot of others who see them as the cash crops they are and nothing more.
I'd grab my backpack and tent and head for the Falls Trail

You did the right thing. The only time I give rides is near the Appalachian Trail.
I'm a hiker myself, and the trail community does depend on the kindness of strangers. Near the trail during hiking season, I will pick up hikers with backpacks. I've been on the trail many times myself, and I've had to stick a thumb out more than a few times. But that is an entirely different situation where the hitchhikers are generally the ones who are more nervous than the drivers.

Young lady killed here in Georgia, Appalachian trail hiker
and she was enjoying going out about 2 years ago, killed on a mountain here by man posing as hiker. She was a young, vibrant lady in her 20s, he was in his 60s. I think I am getting this right when I say he used her police baton she carried for protection, wrestled it away from her and killed her with it. Is not the trail you hike on known for lot of crimes? This murder happened on that same trail where you give rides to strangers. This man was well known to other hikers there as he hung out on the trail lots of times.
Not really taken for a ride but...
So, I get this call saying that they can negotiate with my CC companies to try to get me a lower interest rate. They ask what my interest rate was currently, I told them 28%. They then asked what my balance was, then calculated the approximate amount of money they can save but I would have to pay $400 for their services. They money I would say was nearly 10,000. I was pretty desparate as I know that is a high interest rate and I am struggling to make minimum payments. I did do a BBB check, nothing negative came up. Anyway, a week later a financial advisor calls me, puts me on a conference call with my CC company. He just asked the customer service rep if they can lower my interest rate. Rep says no. He then asks to speak to the Rep's supe. Well, the supe dropped it from 28.9% to 5.7%. I was going WOW. But, I wonder what he did that I could not do. I have called my CC before and spoke to a rep about lowering my interest rate and nothing happened, I never thought to ask for a supe. Do I really need to hire somone and pay that much money? $400 is a lot and he really did not do much.
We ride motorcycles together. (nm)

You don’t have to just ride the freeways
I know, lived there and found all kind of back streets to get any and everywhere I wanted- so much easier- always listened to traffic report in the morning and made my travel accordingly. The freeways are just parking lots here, any wreck shuts them completely down for hours. Can he not go on a different route than what he travels now? I do when traveling through now.
I forgot to add that I ride the bus....every day....
My employer pays for us to ride the bus...Helping us all be "green."
Then buy a 2nd plane ticket for it to ride next to her, lol.

It's a tradition with us! Only have a 1/2-hour ride. nm

Mine are teenagers now so they don't ride a bus
but when they were little their bus driver was a member of our church. Her husband is also a bus driver and works for my husband part-time. I know there are lots of crazies out there, just don't lump "all" bus drivers in that catagory.
I visualized a horse, love to ride
and today I was given a beautiful paint gelding
Personally, I would let it ride. Cost a man his job and reputation for a lifetime over this?
And unless you like to see your husband upset, I'd not say anything to him if I were you.
I learned at about the age of 20 how to give a look that made people shudder when they offended me. That is enough for me in situations like this which I consider a 2 on a scale of 1-10 in the sexual harrassment department.
Do you realize the resulting damage you will do if you take a 2 second event into discussion with white shirts?
My round trip commute is 30 miles. I ride the bus every day.....
It is free to employees of the hospital I work for.
"Sleigh Ride" - instrumental by Trans-Siberian
LOVE all their music. Orchestral + rock. Also, try "Wizards in Winter"!
they let the nudists play in the park and ride their bikes through town

Poster did not give the ride. Why can't people read something and make an
effort to understand the whole issue before spouting off?
I missed the show but yesterday on her show
a couple of brothers came in and gave money to the family. Sorry I don't have more info, but like you, I do love the show. The brothers tried to give some of the credit to Oprah but she wouldn't take it. She really wanted the brothers to get all the credit.
When 2 cars ride side by side on the interstate...sm
and block traffic so nobody can pass. I will get irate over this. I don't know where people's brains are.
The show 24. Anybody know
when or if the show is coming back on Fox? What happened to it? 
TV Show 24
Do any of you keep up with this show? Have any of you watched it from the beginning? I'm just getting into it and wondered if it would be worth buying the previous seasons' dvds. "Jack Bauer fan"
I think you would like the show
Planet Earth on discovery channel. It's got beautiful photography and filming of animals all over the world. A recent one showed a fox snatching a baby snow geese from it's nest, and you feel awful but then it shows the fox bringing the food to babies of it's own and realize it needs food too! It's all a perfectly laid out plan and we humans are the ones who really mess up the balance on this planet. 
Anyone who can tell me what that show was about
I did not see and therefore cannot comment.
I like that show too.

Has she been on the show
yet? I don't remember anybody named Maureen. I heard something, but it's a big time SPOILER so I don't want to say it, but I just can't think of who she is
It does not show W. VA. nm
:
the show is
The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet. Hopes this makes it on board.
Just show the cat the box
Just take her and put her in the box. She will naturally know what to do and should start using it again. If not, I would call a vet.
Best show on TV

Just the best show ever!
Funny, weird with some great eye candy.
There is a show that comes on TLC
that is filmed at the Brookhaven Clinic for morbidly obese people. They mentioned on that show that some of the residents had to be taken to the zoo for imaging because they were too heavy/large for regular equipment.
No, this is a different show s/m
True life, where unless I missed it (only saw the last 15 minutes), no religion is involved.
She will get her own show on TLC. Everyone will
xx
Yes, to me, he WAS the show. That
episode tears me up every time I see it. It was never the same after he left.
Just goes to show ya ....
I watched it and then the interview on GMA and that was priceless. What a truly joyful, humble and talented lady. I could have just smacked Simon - actually all the judges and most of the crowd for their initial reactions. Guess she showed them all looks are not everything and I am so happy this lady is getting all this acclaim. She is just priceless.
There is a show that comes on BET
on Sunday and it is called "Sunday Best." Anyone on that show beats what they have on Idol this year. I have basically stopped watching. No matter if Susan looks like poop, the people are sure taken with her. Adam will go the way of Taylor Hicks and Fantasia, one shot.
Probably not but maybe they'd contact them to be on the show! ; )
