If you thought that having the Number 6 horse lag behind the rest is a hell of a trick, please take a look at this You Tube clip.
And to think this sweetheart's half-sister is Sylvia...well, Sylvia has nothing to worry about.
Perhaps this presenter takes after the maternal DNA side of the family tree---root rot and all.
Just curious...what trick is she coming INTO or OUT OF that would place her in that part of the ring AND looking away from the last horse?
Anyone have a guess?
Wow, the blog sure has taken a nasty critical tone of late. What happened to the old phrase "If you can't say anything nice..."
How would one tell if the last horse is lagging momentarily or not?
And, what is special about the You Tube clip? Doesn't look like much to me.
HM
I am with you HM,
The anonymi are in high gear today. Please anonymi, if you could avoid seeing my act this year, it would be great. I already know whats wrong with it. And after counting up how many anonymouses there are, we could never seat you all in a tent. This is ofcourse, unless we are friends and like each other, then by all means come out have a beer, and tell the world how great it was.
HM,
Where have you been. I've been waiting for you. If you can see the hypocricy of this thing of our's, I trust other's do as well. If the "keepers of the bag o jealous", were not anonymously at the top of that list, they would have littered this parade route with tootsie roll miniatures. Where are you at, Sylvia? I'm too busy to have to do your job, too.
Casey, you have a talent for diplomacy. If your dates happen to cross pathes with Circo Hermanos Anonymous say "howdy" for the rest of us.
Looks good to me; but then I always considered it a success when I could just keep them in the ring. cc
I can't believe it, I am agreeing with Wade!!!If you are going to post a nasty remark,the least you can do is sign your name "cracked nuts." Did you choose that name cause yours aren't quite intact? Or did you lose them? I want everyone to know this is not the work of the "Ladies", not this time.We only pick on Wade....Did you take your Happy Pill this morning darlin?
One can't fault the criticism expressed under another photo of the ringmaster in ill-fitting black mourning cloth (or is this a costume change from another better-fitting color?) and, yes, the number 6 horse lags (for that matter, number 2 ain't in such a great position) but the vindictive, nasty, and personal cuts of cracked nuts suggest his walnuts should be cracked, too, and then he (thanks, Margaret, for clarification!) can sing like a she in a higher pitch with something to REALLY complain about!!!!!! "I'm not trigger" had a much better way of addressing the problem. I don't always enjoy some of the negatives we've been reading these last months but the personalization aired in the first post is beyond toleration. Buckles, this crap needs to be pruned. Perhaps my opinion reflects that of hundreds of true anonymouses out there.
I want to see the circus profession improve by good and fair reviews even if they are hard critiques--after all, this is show business and we should be used to public reviews. And God knows this business needs help these days. But cracked nuts, go reach a new high today—a high pitch, that is.
And your name is.....?
Mr. Woodcock,
I am going to forward this on to Webster's, for their unabridged 08 version.
a·non·y·mous (-nn-ms)
adj.
1. Having an unknown or unacknowledged name
2. Having an unknown or withheld authorship or agency
3. Having no distinctive character or recognition factor
4. Having an opinion on relatively famous circus blog which one is fearful could be traced back to its origin
Margaret,
Way to go. I come up with a brilliant alias like "cracked nuts", and you almost give it away with some "old marital discord" rantings. Nobody is perfect Miss second toe is 1/2 inch longer then the rest.
If you get a chance call your eldest son. He is having a time understanding this show business deal. Beings I'm a townie, maybe I'm not explaining it right. You might be able to offer some insight.
If crammed down my throat is the the same thing as taking, then yes, I have taken my nice pill today, Sweetie.
All my best, Margaret.
Wade Burck
Buckles,
A ton said, in a few word's. Root cause, would also be appropriate.
Wade Burck
...Shame on you "Cracked Nuts" The Ladies will not tolerate "Yo Momma Jokes." Sign your name and take your punishment like a man!!! And we are waiting for the post with your picture working YOUR liberty act..
I shall make a charming and very witty reply to you Mr Burck...Right after I get over the SHOCK of you telling the Blog World about my toe's..Oh you are in for it now Mr. Townie...
good one, buckles.
i agree that cracked nuts' post was rather visceral for the content given.
if you want to critque the performance, critique the performance. hint: specific points work best.
obviously you don't like (...um, is it erika?) on a personal basis and that is ok.
but if you want to annonymously attack someone's heritage, this is not the forum.
we do have our standards! harumf! harumf!
(well, such as they are ....)
to borrow the immortal words of our beloved Dr.McDermott:
i'm NOT annonymous - i'm elephantsandy!!
Margaret,
To hear you utter Mr. Townie after so many years, has brought back many fond memories of maritial bliss. Thank you so much. Now I will never get our son's to understand, "what ever was I thinking".
Should we "tip" the blog that we are having fun? Or just let the Mutt's and anonymous goof's think they are on to something? Let me know soon. I have to get busy on PR. At the rate I'm going, even Jim Zicjick, Casey Canine, and probably even Adam are going to beat me into the Hall of Fame.
My best, Wade
Message intercept from Ft. Lincoln, Dakota Territory:
Congratulation's Sir. You managed to put together a Platoon, which just about wiped out those blood-thirsty anonymous savages. Even the Cute Name tribe didn't stand a chance.
Thank you Sgt. Major, but it was the honorable, right thing to do.
Sir, while we are still mounted and have ammo to spare should we go help Wade G. Burck?
No Sgt. Major, have the troops stand down but alert. I don't think we can do it with a Platoon. We'll probably have to muster a Division. Carry on. Dismissed.
I swear Buckles,you cut all kinds of comments all day,you couldn't cut the toe's comment? I haven't been this humiliated since I have to do BOZO...with the PINK GOATS...
Col. Herriott,
I'm suprised at the "knowledgeable" comments
here. I didn't realize there were that many horse trainers left anymore.
Wade Burck
Margaret,
We'll have no Bozo-bashing here.
You were lucky that he had you on at all, what with your pink goats and weird toes and all ; )

Pat,
You won't hear it from her, but me taking that Camel to the Quarter Horse Congress in Oklahoma City (that's right, anonymous. I was a problem even back then), opened a lot more door's for her then she'll ever admit too.
Wade Burck
P.S. Margaret,
I beg your parden. I never promised you a rose garden!!! Along with the sunshine comes a lot of crap!!!!
...Mr. Pat,I know nothing of any Camel, and I'll never admit to being anywhere near OKC. And as for that Rose Garden, I'm still picking the thorns out of my a$$.
Excuse me for butting in Wade, but the Quarter Horse Congress is in Columbus, Ohio. It belongs to the Ohio Quarter Horse Association.
Bill,
Thanks for the consistancy. What's the name of the big Quarter Horse Show that used to be held in OKC, back in the early to mid seventies? 1974 to be more precise.
The camel's name was Clyde by the way. Pretty original, huh.
Wade Burck
Groaner - I tried unsuccessfully to resist commenting that the name "Clyde" was a really smokin name for a camel.
cc
Wade, it might of been the AQHA World Show in OKC?
wade:
I believe that was the first year in OKC for the AQHA World Championship Show.
24 hour man,
I hope you didn't think I was taking anything away from your beloved quarter horses, although lord know's, my beloved Arabians could use some assistance. Read the registry list's, and cut me some slack. You've got nothing to worry about for a long time.
Have a good day, my friend.
Wade Burck
P.S. Why did Gary know the right answer a full 16 minutes before you did, Mr. Buckeye Quarterhorse Promoter. Ha Ha
