Hi Angel!...I'm really enjoying myself here and I'm thinking of joining the free astrology course....if things get dour and serious they will need someone to clown around...hope they don't kick me out [that is if they let me in ]!!------------------

I know they do a thing with horses. If a hero dies in battle they show the horse standing on its back legs, If he died from injuries sustained in battle they show the horse with one foot up, but if he died peacefully they show the horse standing on all four legs.With Washington, maybe it has to do with him standing in his famous crossing of the Deleware.
