Actually yes, whether it's technically stupidity or some sort of moth complex combined with panic, horses will often run back into burning stables once rescued.

I'm not sure I really understand the whole stamping thing though... I looked at the journal. and was kinda confused.

To be honest, I'm not sure I understand the stamping phenomenon, either. I think it runs along the same lines as memes and quizzes. Someone thought they were a good idea, once upon a time, and now they're there. So everybody does them. :)

The basic notion, though, is that you fill out an application and, based upon your answers to the questions, the community votes on a certain themed stamp. You get stamped with the stamp that gets the most votes. There are stamping communities for just about every conceivable aspect of the world/life/pop culture/etc. There are stamps for Harry Potter houses (are you a Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw?), which vintage movie star you most resemble, which god/goddess you're most like, and millions of other things.

This particular community stamps you, initially, as an aspect of nature. (I was stamped River.) And once you've been stamped as that, you're eligible to participate in the monthly themed stamps. There've been Natural Disaster stamps, Solar System stamps, Flower stamps, Gemstone stamps, and currently, the Animal stamp. I don't really have a good reason for participating, but it's mindless and it's usually fun...and I *am* the person who loves quizzes so much she has a week devoted to them each year. :) So, it's nuts...but so am I.

As for the horses running into the burning buildings, who knew? You are a fount of random, nifty knowledge, Czarina. And while the moth complex bit makes more scientificky sense, I like the stupidity explanation. :D But then, I'm biased.
