Okay, Bob, I'll confess. It's all my fault. ;-)
CJ must have been peeking over my shoulder when I was watching the National
Horse Show coverage on ESPN. Among other things, they had an exhibition by a
group of Lipizzaners. CJ must have seen the capriole and wanted to remind
you that she could do that, too.
Glad your back is okay -- I once fell out of a treehouse from about five feet
up and fell flat on my back. Knocked the wind out of me, but no permanent
harm done. It was no fun, though, even falling on soft sand. Ooof!
