Are you Kidding?

So I was watching NBC News today, minding my own business when Brian Williams said the following, "The next story may have viewers wondering why we are spending airtime on this, but people across America are mourning the death of a thoroughbred horse." That horse, of course (I sound like Mr. Ed) is Barbaro, who was euthanized today. So people are mourning the death of a horse? WTF? Apparently, there are quite few who are actually mourning his death, and to all those who are mourning the death of Barbaro, I have the following to say to cheer you up: He should make many fine bottles of glue. But I kid. I kid. Barbaro, I hope you're enjoying the big salt lick in the sky.
