Mint Chocolate Chunk, Bones, and Horses

Posted by: heath in Nature, Pets and Animals, Travel

Once again, I’m off in an exotic location - Oregon. As I discovered last week while in Arizona, I like the show called Bones. It’s a forensic show about analyzing bones and bone fragments to figure out crimes.

Before I got back to the hotel after dinner, I stopped by Albertsons and picked up some ice cream, Bacardi Silver pomegranate mojito, and sundries. I was expecting that So You Think You Can Dance would be on, but I was wrong. Instead, it was Bones, which I can deal with. But little did I know what I was in for.

Bones is dealing with a guy who was killed while at a fetish retreat…for people who like to pretend they are horses. That’s right, horses. Like wearing a bit, eating from a trough, and all that stuff. This is a fetish I have NEVER heard of before, but they went there.

So I’m sitting here eating Ben & Jerry’s Mint Chocolate Chunk, learning about this fetish, and trying to solve the mystery of the death of Mr. Ed. Wish me luck.

If you’d like to learn more about this fetish, here’s a site: The Human Equine

    I’m all for fetishes, I mean humans are inherently weird and should explore their weirdness with abandon, but golly. That’s a new one.

    Agree - new for me too.

    I could have done without one of the lead characters trying to give a moral lesson about how fetish sex isn’t as meaningful as “making love” and “creating a connection” and “becoming one” with another person…

    Thankfully the other lead tried to balance that with her own more open minded thinking. Unfortunately, the show ended with him thinking that he had “won” the argument. Closed minded writers I guess…

    But hey, minor kudos for them on pushing the boundary on highlighting fetish - even though they made a mockery of it to some extent, thus only minor kudos.

    One highlight was that the murderer was the girl who was in Better than Chocolate, and I like her a lot :-).

    Bones is one of my favorite shows. I started watching it just to follow David Boreanaz (because I’m dorky and miss Angel and Buffy). I was happy to find it was actually quite a good show. I did see that episode… and have to say it was a topic I was unaware of as well. They do come up with some interesting stories.

    oh my dearest, naive Heath! LOL

    I LOVE that show… totally into all the CSI/SVU/crime solving dramas. :) I watched that one last night too. I’d actually seen it before but watched it again because the actress who played Annie Oakley is HOT HOT HOT! She also played “Kim” in Better than Chocolate (lesbian flick for those not in the know).

    And for your reading enjoyment and edification, you might pick up the “Beauty” series by Anne Rice. A lot of “pony play” in that series as well. And the whole series is, in a word, exquisite! :)

    Enjoy!!
