And now I'm giggling at Plei's horse posts, given her current tagline.
And I thought the cream-to-platinum mane, tail, and points with a medium-to-pale chestnut coat defined palomino--do I have that wrong?
You guys had a riot? On account of me? A real riot?

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

There's a champion Belgian breeder back home in my area of Pennsylvania. I loved going to the country fair so I could get up close and stare at the big, mellow horses. Such a gorgeous color.

Genetically different. The palomino is a chestnut with a single dilute gene (double dilute gives you a cremello). Belgians are generally undilute light chestnuts with flaxen manes and tails.
(ETA, I had TOTALLY forgotten this was my tag. HA!)

Art Crawl!!!
Yeah, I noticed that about the foal too. (Perhaps whoever cut the trailer got the wrong foal- here's hoping.)
Of course, the foal could still have been very, very wet.

Picture of Secretariat as a foal (but definitely not a newborn.)

I mistook a percheron for a palamino tonight.
I'm starting to understand how most people feel when I start ranting about the physics of movie time travel...

To go upthread a bit:
I met a woman named Alia once
My great-grandmother's name was Alita; I've always wanted to find out if that was a common name in late-19th-century Chicago.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
