Fiddlers Green

A young Captain decides to try horseback riding, even though he has had no lessons or prior experience.

He mounts the horse, unassisted, and the horse immediately springs into action.

As it gallops along at a steady and rhythmic pace, the Capt begins to slip from the saddle.

In terror, he grabs for the horse's mane, but cannot get a firm grip.

He tries to throw his arms around the horse's neck, but he slides down the side of the horse anyway!

The horse gallops along, seemingly impervious to its' slipping rider.

Finally, losing his frail grip, the Capt attempts to leap away from the horse and throw himself to safety.

Unfortunately, his foot becomes entangled in the stirrup, and he is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as his head is struck against the ground over and over and over.

As his head is battered against the ground and he is mere moments away from unconsciousness, to his great fortune, a retired Air Force Master Sergeant shopping at Wal-Mart, sees him and unplugs the horse.

This is why would-be Captains who were raised by retired USAF Master Sarges don't try to ride Wal-Mart kiddie-ride horses that are three or more sizes too small for them!
