1. Did he put you through college? I once knew a cowboy who...

credited his roping horse with buying him a ranch.

12. Here's some context on the quote:

Behind me, I heard a young woman of 25 say, "If it weren’t for my horse, I wouldn’t have spent that year in college." Now, I.m gonna repeat that, because it bears repeating. "If it weren't for my horse..." as in, giddyup, giddyup, let's go — "I wouldn't have spent that year in college," which is a degree-granting institution. Don't think about that too long, or BLOOD will shoot out your NOSE!

I watched his HBO special a couple of weeks ago and was in pain from laughing so hard.

Some days are only tolerable after a Black break in the madness!

9. All right, I'm tired and sleep deprived. I've been staring at this post

trying to wrap my brain around it and make some sense of it.

Is it a futile effort? :shrug:

13. thats the point

you weren't supposed to understand it. It came from a bit where he heard the stupidest comment ever then it gave him an aneurysm. Much more funny when Lewis Black tells it

14. Maybe she put money on the horse to win a race?

:shrug:

[AlienGirl]

16. Maybe she sold the horse and paid for tuition with the money? nt

15. The fact that it was just a year in college makes this so much greater...
