This week: the best horse wanted ad ever, a holy water trough, some western jumping, an ellipses overdose, a “Paint Aravet Quorter Hors For Sail” and much, much more!

First up, from Kelli:

From Teresa: “Rubbermaid 150 gal water trough that was used for a baptismal pool for a church.”

From Valerie: “Tires are the only issue?”

From Molly:

I have a female horse 7 years old she is a sweet girl but I just bought her and know nothing about horses. I was walking her and then we stopped for a while and my pigs ran by her and she ran and about took my head off lol I’m only 115 pounds so I think horses is not my thing. I’m asking 300 obo I brush her and wash her walk her I never tryed to ride because 8 have no experience so I don’t even know if she’s rideable. The kids lead her around and all but when she done that I seen how quick one of us could get hurt so she has got to go

From Billie: “Jumping western?? At least the horse has a clean title!! Lol”

From Grace: “I like how the little voice in your head makes all those pauses when you read this.”

From Allison: “Too bad I saw this after your ‘spelling errors’ edition, but it still has entertainment value.”

I have a TWH gelding for sale. Stands at about 16 hh. Loads with no problem, stands for the farrier, stands to be groomed, saddled and tacked. This horse is for EXPERIENCED riders only. It’s not a horse for kids, experience riders who love a hyperactive and fun to ride horse. He rares for fun but on que only. His rack is as smooth as any. He’s up to date on all shots & dewormer. The reason I’m selling is because I work out of town and have no time for him and that’s not the life a horse needs to live. I have rode him in shallotte, Leland, Wilmington, & tabor city Christmas parades including Benson. He is highway safe, crosses ditches like a pro, he has never ever bucked me off, threw me off or kicked at another horse or myself. He is protective over mares in the pin once attached. Lol I want to keep him because he is the type of horse I love to ride but with no time to spend with him I feel its best to look for him another home. I’m asking at a reduced price of 600 if interested or have any other questions text 910770six8five2. To the ones who have contacted me about this horse in the past month ago I have lost numbers and all out of my phone that’s why I haven’t been able to reply back bc phone crashed. If u by chance read this and are still interested contact the new number listed above. Thank you in advance

From Karen:

From Nikelle: “A Paint Aravet Quorter Hors For Sail.”

From Sierra: “horse barn shed house… uh huh.”

From Brett: “hardly any manners, very sweet girl…”
