[drivingpairs] Happy - in the eye of the beholder

What appears beautiful or happy to one and not to another.  This reminds me
of an enlightening episode that happened during the past summer.  When
reviewing some proofs of an event with a friend, one of the first comments
was I like that one - but their ears are back.  No that one - but the ears
are back too.  Out of almost two dozen pictures, the pair of ponies had one
or both ears back each.  It didn't look happy to that person.    I was
surprised, I thought it was natural to understand that the ponies were
focusing.   I explained that the girls were just paying attention to their
job, since I do use verbal cues.  It didn't mean they didn't like doing what
they were doing.   Personally when I'm driving, I like seeing an ear tipped
back to me.  Funny - two pictures had both their ears up - when we had
kindly been given some applause - they had both pointed the ears forward -
Oh, is that for me?  The hams.
