This message is from: "Arthur Rivoire" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi Everybody from Carol Rivoire at Beaver Dam Farm in Nova Scotia -
Arthur and I got back to the farm after four weeks in New England for the holidays. Our treasured Stable Manager, Jaimie, stayed on the farm to run things. -- The first thing Arthur and I did on arrival was to go out to the barn and check the horses. All twenty of them looked great despite the horrendous cold we've had the past little while. Next thing was to have a drink and peruse the post and email. -- I was delighted to see that the Fjord Herald had arrived and looked forward to thoroughly reading it when I climbed into bed. -- When that time came, I snuggled down in anticipation of a good read. Well, since I always devour every word of the Herald, it took me awhile to reach page 30 and the nice stallion ad from Deep Creek Farm. All of a sudden I whooped with uncontrollable laughter causing my tired husband to sit bolt upright in bed and demand to know 'what the hell was the matter'. -- I managed to control myself long enough to tell him there was an ad in the Herald for 'Cooled whipped semen' at which point both of us disolved into tear-streaming laughter. That has to be a classic typo -- 'Cooled whipped semen' . . . Absolutely wonderful! I'll never look at Cool Whip, or for that matter, any whipped topping the same way again. I doubt I'll ever eat it again.
