I suppose I should explain myself here.
Back in 2006, Sammy the Cat Beany approached me to write a series of columns for his website, horseface.org. Entitled "Horse Sense with David The Lurker," it was meant to be one of the main features of the site, celebrating its post-5th anniversary. Alas, it wasn't meant to be...after much fanfare for the premier episode, months went by before I wrote another one, which just wasn't as good as the first. Ultimately, the feature laid dormant until horseface.org went down for yet another overhall, putting the whole thing on hiatus.
While these pieces may be put back onto horseface.org in an archival state, Horse Sense as a whole is pretty much dead. If I ever do anything like this again, it would be under a different moniker. But who knows, stranger things have happened. For now, they are presented here with the assistance of archive.org for the last two people in the world who care about them.
