Horses aren't stunned. Some of them are actually smarter than some of us. Now, on the other hand "asses" have made
lots of mistakes and can be quite stunned. I;ve heard "Stupid as a jackass" and we're a lot milder and meeker(hee hee
Matt) and politely say "Stunned as me ass". Although, come to think of it, we do sometimes use slightly stronger
language.
Cheers,
Brendan
