i grew up with horses, rode them every day since i was about five years old...
when i was seven, i was thrown after we hit a car and broke my neck...
continued to ride for a number of years after the third vertabra healed...
used to see these things growing out of horse manure piles - dad said they were mushrooms...
to this day, i get physically ill when i even smell mushrooms...
and dogshit..

you both get dirty;
the pig likes it.
