So you're actually a cobbler for horses now ? Funny how I was under the impression that you were back hauling real big oversized loads in a heavy haul Truck. Think you can get the Free Farmer Guy to translate the real situation for me ? I know I got a wire crossed somewhere, but I can't figure out where ? I had no idea that Cobbling for horses paid so well. Do you prorate the shoe package ? Like say, the horse gets a break on price if they get a full set of 4 Steel belted radials instead of just hobbling around on three worn one's and only want to buy one new replacement ? Are there Federal Law's about mixing Radials and regular Bias Plies ?
Just looking for information. Looks like a lucrative field to get into. Almost as lucrative as the field your friend farms for free in Newton. I appreciate any pointers you can provide. Is there a sliding scale that varies depending on the weight of the horse ? Say, a Clydesdale shoe is more expensive than for a Quarter or a Morgan ? Thanks again so much !

"Smrat" eh ? I can't seem to find a definition for that. Is that like a contraction of "small" and " rat " ? I hope not. Although I've been called a whole lot worse.

I just calls 'em as I read 'em. I don't even try to mix it up. The trick is that I have to untangle the mess and put it in Layman's term's if I'm trying extra hard to be polite.
Which actually does happen from time to time. Honest. -
OH ! The horse shoeing sign was already painted on the door of the pickup truck when you bought it.
Never mind. -
Sure does. Just missing a leisure suit and some white loafers.

I wouldn't know the first thing about being a horse cobbler, I thought horse shoes were something you hung over a door for good luck, didn't realize they actually put shoes on horses. However, the 70+ year old gentleman I got the truck from has been a farrier for more than 50 years so highly likely he would be able to answer all your questions. As for pay, well he owns a beautiful ranch outside Arlington, WA and an amazing winter home in Las Vegas so I'm guessing putting shoes on equine pays okay.

I'll have to do a drive through the mall again, didn't realize there was a Super-Cuts hidden in all the abandoned stores. Might get a discount since I don't have any hair anyway

Nope, stole that off an old-timer here that has a "smrat" phone. However mine is "smrater" because it somehow thinks I'm parked at the "vaginitis" when I'm texting someone that I'm at the "casino"
