My uncle had the same problem with wolves and coyotes and whatnot screwing with his cows, he invest in electric fencing around the area where the cattle were kept. Around the field he set up Wire fencing with lines every 8 1/2 inches or so up to 5 feet tall. He says it works very well and keeps the cattle from trying to knock over the pre-existing fences which were just wooden posts and regular wire fencing. So it's a good investment to protect the cattle, or in your case horses, and it all serves as a good boundary line. Also i have heard of people installing motion sensor lights, to scare away the animals, around different areas of the field perimeter, not very costly as you can just put up a wooden post and run a light from the top. You can use car batteries to power them. Sounds like a good idea, but i don't know of anyone personally that has ever done it, and I'm not sure about the car battery thing. Shouldn't be too hard to find a power source if you really wanted to. in the long run it would be nice anyway. The power line thing may be a little expensive, but as much as horses cost it would be worth it, depending on the size of your pen or field or whatever you keep them in. You could just lock them in a pen at night and do the wires around that. Good luck, hope this helped!!!!

They make stakes you can put into the ground that let out small electric pulses that keep them away.  I'm not sure how far away from the stake it will work but it should work if you put them on the corners and by the net (outside the sand).\nYou can find them at places like Home Depot.

I'm with you, I Love cemetery's. I love the dates on the tombstones and try to think what this person was like in 1859. I see at a lot of the older cemetery's the person only lived to 40 yrs old and a lot of children died young. But it can be a quiet, relaxing and beautiful place to take a walk and think about life, and remember not to life too seriously when you see how young these people were. We rush our lives sometimes without stopping to smell the roses or walking in a quiet cemetery. It's also great because a lot of people are not around and i get a feeling of peace walking around looking at the names and dates..

It doesn't matter. \n\nIf my family can afford a simple burial so be it.\n\nOne thing I do have to add is that there are so many dead people lying around and I don't see any new cemeteries opening up?\n\nWhat gives and how do you explain that?

They built the wall to protect the Ming Empire from raids from other tribes like the Mongols and the Turkics. There are some claims that as many as 1 000 000 people died while building the wall, which is why the Great Wall has been nicknamed "The Longest Cemetery on Earth"\n\nI hope this helped...good luck on your speech!

I believe the original saying is "Good fences make good neighbors."  The idea is that you keep yourself separate enough not to be involved in their private business, but remember, good fences have gates (and walls have doors), and good neighbors knock and go through the door/gate when invited.  So this does not imply that you keep yourself totally isolate.

The ones you see hopping over fences are not usually in the desert areas, they are near San Diego, etc.  and you see the pathetic things they call 'fences' meant to stop them.  \n\nWe need real border security.  And they need to use their strength to fix their own country.

It means you get the right to burial, but do NOT own the land.  After a certain period of time, the land could be used for womething else, at the least, it wont be maintained after it has filled up.

its always a good idea to have a fence around any kind of pool, if it is on your property and some kids decide one day to go for a dip and something happens to them, then you are responsible for whatever may happen... better safe than sorry

because  it's an indentation and things collect there like dead skin, lint from clothes etc.There are also wrinkles in there that trap the lint

Maybe you haven't seen the news lately,it's the illegals that are leaving garbage all thru the areas that they walk on,there are places where the garbage is so bad that crews have to be sent to clean it up,it's the illegals that are a danger to the wild life not the fence,

People who walk often would know the answer to this.  I sometimes walk/run in the street because a lot of people with fenced yards keep dogs in the front yard.  I'm sure they are just tired of getting the crap scared out of them every day.

I go to graveyards for a few reasons. I go to the graveyard to visit with those who have passed, regardless of whether or not they can actually see or hear me. I also go to graveyards when I am in need of inspiration to write. The calm of the graveyard makes me feel... alive, even amongst the dead.

because they're pusssies\n\nthey just like owning them, posing with their guns on my space.  it's like an SUV.  you don't actually take it off road.  but you rationalize owning one because you're too stupid to be trusted to tie a 2x4 to the roof of your car.
