All the news about Linden that was deleted by Chancellor here where I posted backgound as to why Linden MAY have acted that way was public knowledge that she shared. I did not converse with her by PMs nor FB. I was not sharing anything she didn't already tell us..... Also, I wish you would have ask...

She is not banned. It was her decision to "leave" even though I can see that she has been on the board since her dramatic goodbye.

I was on that instagram/fb thread and while I wasn't intending to discuss training, I love photos! And people put up different things on those pages than what would go here. Same. So sorry Chancellor for any role I played! I'm FB friends with a few members here and really enjoy viewing their photos...

Right after udbb closed it was nice to connect with folks via FB, but no fb group I've found is really a good place for discussion. There is a breeder's group that is probably the best in terms of that, but it's a very specific topic. I'm grateful for this place and the work that you put into it in...

Flight you didn't start the thread. Nor are you getting mad when I said not to use the forum that way.
You are fine.

Right? Who needs the drama???

I didn't really post this for the accolades, seriously. I don't understand the desire to discuss things on Facebook (although I am on there). The threaded discussions on BBs are easier to understand in my mind. I enjoy this community and have even learned a few things here. But let's just remember t...

It was exactly that sort of unpleasantness that led to the ultimate demise of UDBB (and much, much more that happened behind the scenes). Very unnecessary & uncalled for. I, for one, appreciate that you got DDBB going again and are doing such a wonderful job managing it. Thank you. I think I am...

Good morning, I sent a PM to someone on this board asking them to not use this forum as a place to get more people onto Facebook or Instagram as a place to discuss training etc. It wasn't an unpleasant PM. Just saying not to use this forum that way. She responded by saying "FINE. I just won't u...

Welcome AchtungBaby. Our 503rd member!

My trainer does not include canterining in the warmup. When asked why not, I was told because the trot is the suppling gait. I tell him that my understanding is that the canter loosens the back and the trot is always better after a canter. Of course, he doesn't want to believe that, so conversation...

It's not really appropriate to come here to talk about problems with COTH.

It is discussions like these that I enjoy this board even though I no longer ride. Lots of good thoughts happening here and it is nice to see. You can also agree to disagree....well done everyone!

Tsavo has been banned permanently

This is a super weird video and sounds like someone was upset with the score they got. Often, the C judge will score a bit higher because things can be hidden from the judge. The side judges have a much better vantage point in terms of seeing movements. For instance, that circle - the horse kept lo...

For me as well!

I had no idea one could do this. I just tried it and I was able to do it. (I immediately deleted the photo, which was not from this board.) Yes, actually, you can just take a screen shot too. There is no good way to prevent that. There are ways around right clicking and downloading but nothing that...

I am embracing the suck of second level and am torturing myself with yet another show on Sunday. Those of you who posted photos, you are truly damn awesome and inspiring. I will post my own early next week. And then you can all go to town :lol: Good luck :D I wish this was a private forum so people...

Ok. This board is doing well with self policing but this one is getting a little heated. As someone who has often been accused of having a "tone" in written word, I will say that none of you know exactly what tone was implied by Musical Comedy. Also I would like to be made aware if people ...

The Northeast Xan. Move out here! No wildfires, no real earthquakes.

Well, the good news is that someone came this weekend and bought the trailer and it worked great with their truck! So, this story ends happily.

I realized it as soon as I hit post

I hope you knocked on wood, threw salt over your shoulder etc.

It actually was a Ford but the truck was running. My mechanic came and looked at it yesterday and cleaned the circuits and the lights worked. So, the question is, will it work on his truck....IF he comes back

Not having the intestinal fortitude to get another one.....YEAH! That about sums it up. I have had more than my fair share of bad luck with horses. And I had a couple really good ones too. But crap, it is HARD to find that unicorn. I remember searching the WantAdvertiser for my horses. It was the be...

I am selling my horse trailer. Last night, I had a guy come and wanted to buy the thing. We hooked it up to his truck and the running lights didn't work. EVERYTHING else worked. Brakes, hazards, blinkers but not the running lights. I have to go get my truck from the shop, hook my trailer up to it an...

Certainly not around here. Those prices are ridiculous...and to ride with a working student??? Seriously?
Maybe find a smaller barn.

Pee in the stall because the bathroom is too far to make it to?

Xan, here's another perspective. I bought the horse of my dreams. But for whatever reason, we just didn't work well together. Other people got on the horse and rode him well. I got on and he was a spooker.

You just never know.

And Wicky....How sad! Horses!

I would need to make someone an admin....which I have been thinking about doing. But I would need to know that someone would try to stay neutral.

I have a very hard time with left/right because I am mostly ambidextrous. Funny story. One time I was taking a clinic with Karl Mikolka and my then boyfriend was videoing the lesson. Karl asked who he was. I told him he was my boyfriend. Karl told Michael that he should never get involved with a hor...

Well, in all fairness, she was a 60+ year old woman who wasn't really employed by the company....it was a startup.

Thanks for cleaning them up Chancey. They were everywhere! I was worried I was going to get an education I did not want :lol: :lol: Tell me about it! Did I ever tell you guys about the guy at my last job who was surfing porn on his work laptop? He wound up getting a bad virus which is how I found o...

UGH not completely out of the woods. But slower at least.I may have to look into better BB software.

I was just in Vienna! If you can, do the barn tour and meet and greet with the rider. That was great even if you couldn't pet the horses. If you can, go to Piber! It's about 3 hours outside Vienna but it was the highlight of my trip. There is a culinary carriage ride that was phenomenal. The food wa...

THAT would be nice.

It looks like none of them can answer horse related questions....at least for now.

I changed the spam bot questions again. Hopefully this will slow them down

So, on top of a whole lotta crap at work (including my entire work laptop crashing and nearly setting fire to my house), the spammers have found us. Please report the posts when you see them and please be patient with me as the work laptop thing is a real pain in the butt! I have deleted around 30 s...

It is an exclamation point to the left of "like this post". That's how you report

This is the only one I have on my work computer. I'll try to add more from my phone in a little bit.

The doctor called me a couple of days ago and told me the skin cancer was very low grade. I think he called it Basal Cell, but I am not for positive. Anyway, it appears to not be a problem. It is healing now and I don't go outside without sun protection anymore. Thank You all for your good and kind...

I brought home another Siamese kitten!

Good one!

PS. I couldn't care less if you swear. I have a mouth like a truck driver/ sailor or what other person swears a lot.

In four months, she gets tested again. Assuming she is heartworm negative, she is done.

She is MUCH better. The second day was terrible. She was crying and wailing in pain. Made for interesting conference calls that day. After about 2pm that day, though, she was fine. She stopped crying and seemed nearly normal. It's now been a week and she is doing great. Now I just have to keep her q...

Sorry that I was asleep at the wheel when things got a bit heated. When I am not working (like a four day weekend) I try to stay away from computers. Since I was the only one who didnt delete posts I cannot tell if I am being subtley publically reminded of my manners or if something else was happen...

Congratulations!

Chancellor of many talents! Very kind of you to offer support and education. I can talk skin cancer all the time! I frequently tell people at work that there is no such thing as a healthy tan....and threaten to bring in the book I am published in showing HUGE repairs on skin cancers that were left ...
