There were two horses, Razzle, and Dazzle. These horses loved to race in the pasture all day long.
So last Friday, Razzle glances at Dazzle and says:
"Hey... I bet I can beat you to that tree over there, across the field."
So Dazzle says: "You're on, you walking glue stick."
So they take off! And they're runnin'. And runnin' and runnin' and runnin'... and Razzle beats Dazzle by a nose!
"No fair!" Said Dazzle, "I wasn't quite ready to race yet, and you took off!"
"Ok." Razzle replied, "We'll race right back to where we started from on 3!" They both took they're running stances...
"One... two... THREE!"
So they're runnin' and runnin', and runnin some more.... then they run some more... and they're still runnin'... and this time Dazzle beats Razzle by a nose!
So farmer Bob, who owns the lovely and speedy horses, sees Razzle and Dazzle in all they're speedy glory runnin' across the field. He starts to think of the new horse race track that was being built just outside of town... "Hmmmm...." He pondered.... At the same time, farmer Joe, who lives across the dirt road in the light blue house, saw the horses running and came to see what the comotion was.
"You ought to enter those horses of yours in that opening day horse race." farmer Joe hollered out to farmer Bob.
"Ya know, Joe, I was just thinking that I should do that."
So farmer Bob preps the horses the next day, and loads them into the trailer to take them to the track for a qualifying run. It took a while to get Razzle and Dazzle into the horse trailer, because they would rather race around the farm and were trying to run away from farmer Bob. Eventually farmer Joe came to help farmer Bob get the horses together. And off they went to the race track, which was aproximately 15½ miles north/northeast from farmer Bob's place.
Farmer Bob filled out the required paperwork to enter Razzle and Dazzle in the race. Upon filling the paperwork out, he had to have a form of ID to show the resgistry people, which he didn't have, so he drove back home, fetched his ID (folks, farmer Bob should not have been driving without his lisence... let this be a lesson to you...) and returned to the registration table to test run the horses.
So, some time later, Razzle and Dazzle make their way into the starting gates for the qualifying run. Farmer Bob was rather nervous on how the horses would do in the time run. So while the time keeper was preparing to start, Razzle looked at Dazzle and said:
"Do you know what's going on here?"
"Nope." Dazzle replied. "But I've been locked up in that trailer too long, now I'm in this little pen right next to you, and I wanna run."
"If they open the gate up, we should race around this here track." Said Razzle. "I'll beat you this time for sure."
"Ohhh.... You're on!" Dazzle huffed.
The bell rang, gates opened... and both Razzle & Dazzle shot out of the gates in a furious start. The other qualifiers stared amazed at the speed and agility of the two magnificant horses tearing up the track. They were neck and neck! Runnin', runnin', runnin', and they both tied for the exact same time!!! But that didn't stop them. Seeing that the times were the same, the horses took to the track even faster for another lap around the track to see who would be the fastest once and for all. Runnin', runnin', runnin.... runnin' some more... and finally Razzle wins by fractions of a second!!!!! Both horses slowed their pace and trotted back to farmer Bob who was SO proud of his horses, after all, they beat everyone else times by at least 10 seconds!
Finally... racing day came, and all the contestants were certain that Razzle and Dazzle, farmer Bob's prized horses, were sure to win the race by more than a nose... Tension was high. All the horses were preped, washed, fed, and ready to race. Razzle said:
"Man, Dazzle, I hate that they had to braid my mane for the stupid race. I look like a mare!"
"You think you look silly?" Dazzle snorted "they shaved MY mane down and tied these little bandages around my hooves!" He stomped in frustration.
Razzle chuckled: "Well, the sooner we get through that finish line, the sooner we go home and het out of this whole mess."
"Agreed." Dazzle grinned.
So they stomped and huffed in anticipation of that opening gate. Dazzle noticed the starter about to go off and looked over at Razzle sheepishly and said:
"Hey, before you get started, I should let you know that your shoe's untied."
"It is?!?!" Razzle said in shock. He looked down just as the gate opened and the horses took off!
"Why you little!" Razzled huffed, and off he went!
All the horses were trying their hardest to keep up to Razzle and Dazzle, but it was just no good. Like Forrest Gump, They were runnin', runnin', runnin'... The finish line approached closer and closer Razzle caught up with Dazzle and were, again, neck and neck. The crowd was going absolutely nuts! It was the fastest and best horse race that they had ever seen, and it was about to make farmer Bob rich beyond his dreams! Of course Razzle and Dazzle finished the race way before the other horses and they had tied! Farmer Bob had collected millions in just hours that day!
Upon arriving home, getting cleaned up, and released back into the field. Dazzle had apologized to Razzle on tricking him at the race.
"I'm sorry, man, I shouldn't have done that back there."
"No worries." Razzle teased. "We both know that you were just too scared of losing that race!"
"Wha! Boy, I'll take you to that tree over there and beat you like no horse has ever beat another in a race!"
"Lets do it then!" Razzle smirked.
So they're runnin', and runnin' and runnin some more and Razzle beats Dazzle by a nose...
"Looks like we'll have to try again, ol boy." Dazzle said.
Suddenly a little dog came running up to the ever so famous horses and yipped frantically in excitement:
"Hey!!! You're Razzle and Dazzle!!! Wow!!! You guys are so stinkin famous with that race and all!!! Will you guys be racing again soon?!?!"
Razzle looks at Dazzle and says:
"Hmpf... Look at that. A talking dog."
So last Friday, Razzle glances at Dazzle and says:
