Looking Down One’s Snoot
View From The Back Seat I intercepted this comment in an email from Milton. He was discussing his preference for the new two-wheel cart rather than the heavier four-wheel. ~~~ I’m a thoroughbred, you stupid fool. I’m designed to move fast, not pull heavy things. Want to go fast on marathon? That I’ll do.Continue reading “Looking Down One’s Snoot”
