Are you ready for Obama/Robertscare?

The government now has the capability - more so than before - to tax you into doing exactly what it wants. Try to be overweight and go to a doctor - you'll be ordered to lose weight or you get no medical service.  Think I'm joking or off my rocker?  Just wait!

Anyone watched Brave yet?  I sorta liked it, and sorta didn't. The animation was fantastic. The music at the end was great. And of course if you have mother/daughter issues this would be a great film. Unless its too late to make it up to your mother, in which case you have bittersweet feelings about it.

But my favorite scenes were of Merida (the heroine) on her horse, a great big Clydesdale or something of that nature. And believe it or not, hroseriding is a great physical activity. Once you do it for real and not just put-putting around in a circle while you're learning to ride.

Now, once you get good at riding there's still the danger that you might fall off and get stepped on, and if that happens to you don't blame me - you've been warned!  ; )

But why not give it a try. Your knees and legs are under constant exercise as you grip the sides of your horse so you don't fall off. Your hands must be gentle on the reins but your arms must always be poised which gets them exercise. And your stomach muscles will definitely flatten out.
