Ann Romney's horse fails to win dressage but avoids offending BritishRafalca, owned by Mrs Mitt Romney, was impeccably behaved and well received by Olympic equestrians in Greenwich
Never for a second during her seven-minute performance did a hoof stray dangerously mouthwards, nor did she do anything at all to offend or upset the host nation. From the moment she entered the Greenwich Park equestrian arena at 12.15 on Thursday afternoon, the most famous political horse since Caligula toyed with making a consul of Incitatus seemed in her element.

And when is Elmer's coming out with their "Rafalca" line of glues? My little darlings can't be the last ones to have it.

(18,541 posts)Don't take what I wrote seriously. A lot of my friends are horses and other animals... just not the groundhog that's made my life a living hell and ate all our peaches off the tree. That one has to go.
Surprisingly, there's a recipe for woodchuck in "The Joy of Cooking". The second she crosses between me and nothing vital....
