That's the only meat they ear out there in Kentucky. What do you think happens to all those horses that don't win in Kentucky Derby?

How do you know when you're staying in a Kentucky hotel?
When you call the front desk and say "I've gotta leak in my sink" and the person at the front desk says "go ahead."

Spicey, we have 5 star hotels here...we do not have those type of hotels where you walk up to the desk and say things so unclassy as that...

Kentucky is a classy state with old money and grace...most of us don't walk and talk that way...there are some rednecks that drink and get crazy but there are alot of those in New York too...

You forget I lived in New York so I can compare...you never lived in Kentucky to compare the different classes...you might Mr. Spicey, should take a trip here to find out for yourself...and you may even enjoy the nice southern hospitality.... Wink

This is just a well-known Kentucky joke - I did not make it up. I understand that you have 5-star hotels in Kentucky, as well as many other hotels and resorts Smile

Your response should have been either "har har" or "be good"...

Cemetries for horses? That sounds like too much trouble, isn't it? After all, how are horses any better than cows and other animals that people hunt and kill? Maybe they are a bit smarter than cows or sheep. I heard pigs are pretty smart too, but we still eat them. Deer are similar to horses in many ways, yet many average Kentucky residents hunt them and kill them. WHy do horses get such preferential treatment? Only because they can run fast so that some creepy-looking old guys can bet on them winning the race?

Well, horses are high dollar...they are beautiful and sleek...athletic...sporty...and very profitable...just a classy animal...if you owned these beautiful horses years and years ago you had stature in a heighten society....and most prize winning and high dollar horses are in Kentucky...this is where it began..this is old money established or (old wealth) here...of course, there are lots of wealthy people in the US but, Kentucky has old money and high class folks with a southern appeal..not like New York...ect..with their new money or (new wealth)...new money doesn't come with class and old grace...this is not an insult to the new wealthy people but, they don't hold the old grace as the south does and still does when it comes to class.... Wink

So, horses are a sign of established wealth....they are the icons of the south... Wink
