I love horses. I spent seven years as a racing commissioner on a horse-racing board.
Having a horse is a huge responsibility, so people should be very careful before they consider getting one.
I think a high school girl hitchhiking is stupid. It was dangerous then and it's dangerous now.
In California, I guess you belong to the state; you don't even belong to your parents. It's an old Spanish law. It doesn't require your parents to swear out a complaint; anybody can.
I grew up on the beaches, and I always found it kind of funny that it's considered decent if you cover three tiny spots with pieces of fabric.
I think a lot of my girlfriends growing up gave themselves up to any boy who paid attention to them. I think young women now are a lot more particular. They pick and choose.

Laws exist in every state that make animal cruelty a crime. Horse slaughter is simply another form of animal abuse.
It's been very nice. I haven't gotten out too much because we've been working a lot but other wise the people have been very nice and I've had a good time.
With or without horse slaughter, horse rescues need our help and support. That can involve financial donations, volunteering, or even donating items like brushes and blankets. Horse rescues operate with little money, so every little thing you can do to help goes a long way.
Probably some of the projects I chose to do after that had more to do with what people thought of me. The industry was very open and probably hoping that I could do anything.
He's just fun, so much fun. I'm very happy now.
I feel so fortunate. I was brought up along the beaches in Southern California, and then got to have horses.
