I donno... Mr. Ed was pretty smart... Also, Mr. Horse was also quite an amusing fellow.

[edit]

They also have a tendency to panic and run first, and start thinking after their slow little brains catch up with the rest of their bodies. This works well for them in the wild, but less so around humans. (Anyone who has ever ridden a horse which shies and bolts knows exactly what I'm talking about here.)

You have to admit, the picture of a blind guy being drug down the street by a paniced miniature horse is pretty damn amusing!
