He came in third in his class of equitation, which was outstanding and right where we expected, considering (1) the two riders who came in first and second have been riding two years and one year longer respectively than he, and (2) he values speed and degree of difficulty over form.

A girl who was yet to show admired it and said, "That's the color of marigold flowers."

My son replied, "No, it's the color of the Corvette we saw on the way here."

Then he showed her how if you drop dust behind your back while standing with your feet apart, it kinda looks like you're pooping.
