Introduction Moose is my thoroughbred horse and I'm fortunate enough to ride him almost every day. Some weeks I ride Moose longer than I am in my car and it may be preferable for my psyche, but not for my income.
Interests A horse-dealing proverb. One white foot—buy him. Two white feet—try him. Three white feet—look well about him. Four white feet—go without him. [1882 Notes & Queries 6th Ser. V. 427] One white foot, buy him. Two white feet, try him. Three white feet, deny him. Four white feet and a slip in his nose, take him out and feed him to the crows. [1957 H. P. Beck Folklore of Maine iv.]
