Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for October 04, 2021

Give a man a fish; you’ve fed him for a day. Sell a man a fish and you’ve made a profit.

.. then there’s this wisdom: Make a man a fire, and he’s warm for a day. Catch him on fire, and he’s warm for the rest of his life…

I didn’t want to work for a pet store after I found out there wasn’t a job petting the pets

Ha! I’m waiting for that branch to snap back up…heads up Horace…..

That’s good shade tree philosophy. Good thing that’s not a banana tree, or we could call that a banana hammock :-D

Take more than a neon tetra to feed me for a day, heck even a fat goldfish is just a snack.

My version has always been “…teach a man to fish and that’s a man who owes you some fish.”

Quite the precarious perch for our intrepid horse.

Anyone else see a potential problem with Horace’s hammock support?

“Give a man a fishk, an’ ’e’ll eat fer a day. Teachk ‘im ta fight, an’ ’e’ll feast on da meaty marrow of hisk foes fer a lifetime!” ~- Coxswain Ulrich

Teach him to fish and he’ll not go hungry. Teach him how to cook a fish and he will make enough money to afford something other than fish.

Exactly how did Horace ever get into that hammock… inquiring minds…?
