Maybe you have the experience when sometime you spotted a horse in the stable and walked over after your visit to the toilet and the smell was horrid so you strolled back quickly to the original place.<\/span><\/font> <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:20pt;margin:0;\"><font color=\"#000000\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;\">Then you might wonder if the horse like dogs and cats lie on their back sideways to catch their sleep.<\/span><\/font> <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:20pt;margin:0;\"><font color=\"#000000\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;\">I only know to answer that horse sleep standing up but behind the explanation, I do not know.<\/span><\/font> <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:20pt;margin:0;\"><font color=\"#000000\"><span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;\">It\u2019s interesting.
