Why would you want to ride a mule to work? I work with a bunch of . . . (what's another word similar to mule) already, I wouldn't want to spend more time with another one!

but never a mule..

Eh... happens all the time in Mexico, right Mark? Common place to see kids and mules and donkeys. Every picture I've seen of my friends travels to Mexico had a donkey or mule and kids in it.

Once in a while at my old school, one of my old teachers, Giveret Zahavit (her real name was Jill, and she was from Rochester… funny though, then again we have a lot of those were I am from) used to ride our Kibbutz camel Shoshana into school sometimes. Made for a fun treat.

Question: Do people really say "sunup"? I have never heard anybody say that before.

The only vicious equine I ever met was a cute, hairy little Shetland pony. She was a killer, I tell you!

Gotta watch those Shetlands. I knew a guy who had one. He went to ride it one day, got it all saddled up, got on it, and it was limping something terrible. He got off and inspected the leg and hoof, but couldn't find anything wrong. He got back on, and same thing happened. He finally decided to call a vet, unsaddled the pony, and turned it out into field. The thing ran off without the slightest limp, and, I swear, it was laughing at him!

Yup. Purdy common in these parts.

And so is this.

The five children then run to the school's flagpole to recite the Pledge of Allegiance and sing the national anthem. The mule, named Ruth, prances and kicks up dirt as the children sing.
