A new saddle

Retired Michigan teacher Jim Rice, 75, has spent the past six weeks crafting a saddle for President Bush.

The result is worth about $3,500.

Michigan Congressman Nick Smith will present the saddle to the President later this year.

...Rice says he and a fellow leather worker, Danielle Cole, will have put between 80 to 90 hours of work into the project.

Too bad I understand Bubbleboy doesn't ride horses. In fact, there aren't any on "the ranch" (or Casa Fabricata as Maru has called it).

The Crawford ranch, which Bush bought in 1999, is in what is now farm rather than ranching country, and horses are seldom seen. Putin expressed a desire several weeks ago to ride a horse, but Bush said Tuesday there are none at the ranch.

See what happens when you try to make people think you're something you're not? You make them waste hours of their lives.

Maybe he can just display it. Or put it in the memorobilia room with Saddam's gun.

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
