Uncle B-Boy taught me a few lessons with his horses. Best to walk close to the horse's ass because, if he kicks, doesn't hurt as much in close Fall/Bucked off the horse (which happened a few times in the corral at Al's Place). Get Back On Immediately!! I applied the principles behind these lessons to life and thank Uncle B-Boy and my Dad for teaching me them. - Posted by: Jeff Douglas (nephew) on: May 26, 2013
