1. Thanks for the link. I found all the information I needed there.

No need to visit the blog. In fact, I'm not sure what the need is for comments. There was an incident. It's over.

On edit: I went to your blog anyway, and there's nothing about this story there. :shrug:

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Just posted

And you will not find more than ponies, literal and nooz from me here anymore.

[MineralMan]

3. Oh, OK, then.

Good luck with your blog. I'm not sure what you mean by "ponies, literal, and nooz," but I'm sure I'll discover that in time OK.

Have fun.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Pony

As I said, literal

[MineralMan]

6. You're going to post photos of deformed dwarf horses?

To what end? That photo is very sad. It represents the very worst of selective breeding.

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. Here, more horseys.

9. Are you testing yourself?

You're doing quite well!
:applause:

[MineralMan]

10. Now, see, those are normal horses. Not so those deformed

dwarf horses bred to be house pets for spoiled rich people. Normal horses, doing normal things. Looks like a nice spot, too.

I think you should keep posting horse pictures, but I'll bet the admins will want you to post them in The Lounge with all the "kitteh" photos.

11. Looks like a normal elderly Shetland Pony

One of my school friends had one that looked just like that about 40/45 years ago - the pony was something like 18 or 19 years old - it had been her mom's 16th birthday present.(and yes, I was at the age I wanted a pony soooo bad...).
The mini-ponies and pocket ponies people like nowadays are bred-down from Shetlands.

5. By order of the public health authority

USA is henceforth CLOSED, for repairs.

7. On my blog I go into this

Analysis (from me) is not wanted here... But yep, pretty much.

[MineralMan]

12. I think you should post the results of your analysis here.

I want it. Truly. I find it a refreshing change from serious subjects.

The horses are nice, too, though. But, please don't post any more photos of deformed horsies. They make MineralMan sad and stuff.

Let's see big healthy horses. For example, you could post a photo of the Anheiser-Busch Clydesdales in the process of manufacturing Bud Lite. That would be both interesting and educational.

13. I will. Here:

Well, what a mess. Having crossed that many a times one has to wonder. Regardless, this is about infrastructure and how it is failing. It's roads, it's bridges, and it is a shame.

If you happen to live on the border Otay will be a mess. But can we say? We are number one right?

Infrastructure problems...not just for the third world anymore...

I'm gonna take my ball and go home.

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. You almost read disappointed.

Here, another type of horsey fer you.

[pintobean]

16. Really? I was going for amusement.

Because I'm amused that you think you can't express your opinion on DU. It looks like a fake temper tantrum.

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. I really should cut on this

Not good for the line you know.

[Brickbat]

17. I was told there would be analysis.

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. On my blog, not here

It was made quite clear it's not wanted.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

19. Nadin, I appreciate your insights. I really do.

Since you have studied history, and history does repeat itself.

[Brickbat]

20. Well, not when it's wrong.

This isn't a failing infrastructure problem, it's a shitty scaffolding problem.

[nadinbrzezinski]

21. Depends on who you read

but as I said... not my issue to discuss HERE any longer.

[Lasher]

23. You're still pouting over that locked thread.

For those who wonder: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=439&topic_id=1931627&mesg_id=1931627

I don't think it should have been locked either but we just got a new batch of moderators. Let's cut them some slack until they get settled in. Let it go. We need a lot more DUers like you and I don't want you to get your ass banned.

24. For posting nooz and horseys? would not shock me
