Parents, BEWARE!
Don't underestimate the power of the PONY!

But you don't have to take my word for it. If you need further evidence of the dangers of letting your child get bitten by the pony bug you need only consult that great resource of social documentary. You guessed it, none other than, "the Simpsons".

If you haven't seen the episode where Lisa falls hopelessly in love with a pony and her Dad, "Homer" works and worries himself to exhaustion bringing it all to a sad ending where Lisa has to give up her beloved bringing tears even to the stoic riding instructor's eyes then I recommend you rush out to a video store to see what lies in your future. If you have seen the episode then you must ask yourself; "what the devil were you thinking letting your kid sit upon that pony?"

You can't stop at one and they're frightfully expensive and more addictive than drugs. First time users are often hooked for life but before I scare you completely away from even entertaining the possibility of this happening to your child let me describe what can be gleaned from a positive interaction between a pony and your little darling.

Great picture!
