Edie W., one of my favorite equestrian folks from back east, emailed me this morning with the proud news that last Saturday evening she and her husband became the owners of a brand new male donkey. He’s the third generation for their stock. His mother is Holly. (She was born near Christmas a few years back.) And his grandmother is Sara. This little guy’s name is…well, that’s where you come in.
(More pics of Holly and baby)
Edie wrote me and said, “you’re the writer. You think of something. Or better yet, run a contest.” So we’re running a contest. Think of a name for this cute little one. Email me your ideas, and I’ll forward them to Edie. And after a vigorous and completely subjective and slanted voting method (Edie picks the name she likes), I’ll send a “Got Mule?” t-shirt to whoever thinks up the winning name. (Bonus points for anyone who can work “ass” into the little guy’s name.)
I’ll take submissions for a few weeks and then announce the winner in my next newsletter. (Sign up here if you’d like to receive it.)
