Members ryan Posted March 10, 2008 Members Report Posted March 10, 2008 A couple of days ago, I was putting together some saddle blankets (14 actually) with reflective tape on the rear corners for a local Mounted Posse outfit. I took a break and checked my e-mails and I found a humorous message in which the top picture in the following link was the punchline. The irony was enough to make me chuckle a bit but I was struck with an idea; a marketing strategy if you will. Now, before you go to the link below, I would like to state that as a Cop, I have a morbid sense of humor and some will not find this that amusing (my wife included). It is a little graphic and if you don't like seeing dead animals - don't look at it. So please, before the hate mail starts, consider the fact that you were forewarned. I couldn't post it here so I made a link on my website. It will be found under the links page titled "fake advertisement" for a couple days before I take it off. Otherwise the link below should take you there. P.S. I don't know the origin of the picture much less the jurisdiction in which it occurred therefore I don't know if the driver lived or if there were any passengers. It's doubtful the horse lived. Now that I've sparked your curiosity; enjoy. http://fisherleather.com/advertisement.htm Ryan Quote
