3/22/2004: Guide pony

[Undertoad]

Sometimes I'm short on Friday images, and sometimes I have too many as is the case now - so one will sneak out early. This one is almost too Fridayish. It turns out that a few blind people (er, visually challenged??) are starting to switch from guide dogs to guide ponies. They say that one advantage is that ponies have a lifespan of 40 years, so you don't have to get used to 3-4 different ones over their lifetimes and yours. On the other hand, they had better be house trained or take to diapering. I don't think the malls will be happy to clean up what this thing might put out.

Still, I'm not blind and I want one. Look at the wittle shoesies!
