When the horse is used to everything getting on, and getting tightened, you can start lunging him with the saddle on. Walk, trot, canter, and whoa for stopping, or whatever your vocal commands are, use them. Works Cited • "Breaking a Horse to Ride: A Guide to Teaching a Horse to Accept a Rider -."

Mel Brooks is notorious for his satires of many different films and film genres, and Blazing Saddles follows true to form.

moving around and snorting with eyes wide and nostrils flared. I strap my pistol to my hips and tie the tip of the holster to my leg so it doesn't flop. We are ready to go, so I take a deep breath of the sharp, clean, mountain air and step into the saddle. As we ride along in the dark, I begin to relax. Man, I love the smell of cool mountain air; there is nothing in the world quite like it. It is so refreshing for me. As the sky begins to brighten to a gray, and the stars that were so brilliant
THE COWBOY To be a cowboy now of course I’d probably need to get a horse. To ride the hills as the sun goes down, I’d need some boots and a saddle down. And nothing would stop me after that As long as I got a cowboy hat. VISITING AUNTIE ANN At Auntie Ann’s we sit up straight, And finish what is on our plate. We sit in chairs with little lace And doilies put in every place. And never rush at lunch to eat, And never wiggle in our seat. It almost makes me fall asleep To have so many rules

pick one of my favorite films for this project, such as A Clockwork Orange, One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, and Jaws. However, I went out of my comfort zone and picked a genre of film I’ve never become familiar with- Western. The 1974 film Blazing Saddles was a hilarious frontier/Wild West twist about road worker named Bart, played by Cleavon Little, becoming part of character Hedley Lamarr’s (Harvey Korman) evil plan to out-run the small town of Rock Ridge by appointing an African American sheriff

Analysis “What in the wide, wide world of sports is goin’ on here?” The authentic country twang of Frankie Laine in the title sequence gives Blazing Saddles the appearance of a classic Western, but within the first few minutes, the satirical nature of the film makes itself abundantly clear. The opening scene of Blazing Saddles communicates the setting and the character archetypes, both as they appear on the surface and as they will manifest throughout the film.

Calabraro Forum 3 Reply Post Stephanie, you discussed having seen some work teams where little to no energy because the person in charge has little power or authority.

City life is an entire different way of living than life outside of the city. Living in the heart of a major metropolitan city, I travel over 30 miles to work that some say is located in the middle of the Midwest cornfields. Life in the city moves at a faster pace. I find people often are walking quicker steps, seemingly to always be on a mission to get somewhere, usually in a hurry. Shopping at one of my city’s local big box food store, I find that most people are pleasant enough, but do not
bleachers for so long, but every time I approached them, I would remember and smile. During, the whole rodeo season I looked forward to going to the State Finals. I didn't attend the finals as a participant, but as a spectator. As President of the "Saddle Bronc Fan Club" for my friend Cole, there was no way I would miss this experience. We both had been looking forward to this day for a long time. Everything about going to this rodeo was fantastic: the food, the fun, most of all, the rodeo grounds
