Yesterday I had to make a trip to Millersburg (pick up my granddaughter from camp)
First: I would like to say that if the economy is bad someone should tell the Amish … bus and buses of people shopping in Mt. Eaton, Berlin and Millersburg. I had to wait 10 minutes in traffic to drive throw those towns.

I stopped and picked up some cheese and trail bologna. However I looked at a few of the buggies (some are pretty cool and those horses are a little hyper and shit a lot).

The buggies don’t have seat belts …. I checked about 10 buggies and no seat belts

Question should Amish buggies have seat belts?

Ohh.... OK. Yes, every Amish buggy should have a set belt!


I guess you plug the set in the horses ass?

I thought this was going to be a thread about what the winner of the Rake Fighting Championships wears.

Would not do them any good.

You are right. Horses shit like crazy. If you want to drive in the area, you must be able to skillfully manouver your vehicle around the piles of horse shit. You hit a fresh pile and it will splash all over your wheel wells. My daughter hits them all the time. Makes the garage smell like a barn stable.

Why would they need seat belts? They travel so slow and there are so many Amlets crammed into each buggy no one can move anyway.

During the healthcare debate, Ezra's, Jacob's, Leroy had a little sit down with Obama. Amish exemption was a done deal.
