Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for January 14, 2013

time and age are very subjective

AAAAH SHE’S FALLING APART NOOO PIECES ARE BREAKING RIGHT OFF

I wounder how one celibates a Unicorn Anniversary? BTW your not old until some one says your TV show that you watched as a teenager was on when they were 7 or the show you saw when you were 7 was on before there time

How DARE any one NOT grow up on Star Wars, He-Man, Thundercats, Real Ghostbusters, and Super Mario. and if you say about Gargoyles or Digimon “It was on when I was a kid” then you best be getting off my lawn and stop playing with your new fangled ear-pods and listening to that . Justin Beaver! Dang blasted kids an dare snoop dog and spinning tops and Eye Phones What’s the world comming too when ya’ll don’t know Cartoon All Stars or the power glove? You and your new fangled Skyward Sword,Mario Galexy back in my day we had 16 bits and we LIKED it! We had to walk 15 miles in the snow to a block buster to RENT our games and our VHS, none of this Blue Ray junk and we did it our velcrow and air pumps not these spoony roller skates that pop out the bottom and all them dar flashing lights on shoose these days. I miss real singers like Weird Al and good quality movies like Naked Gun you and your Addam Sandler can’t touch that.

So far she is aging in real time. That means in about seven years (or less) she will be to old to associate with a unicorn.

I get wistful when I see kids’ gap-tooth smiles in pictures. That’s when you can’t ignore the child is really growing up.

It’s been a little less than nine months. That’s a significant percent of your life when you’re Phoebe’s age.

Howdy Doody and Pinky Lee, Range Rider, Davy Crockett, and the Lone Ranger.

There’s absolutely no reason why an adult can’t be friends with a unicorn. Indeed, maybe Phoebe’s parents could have a few chats with Marigold . . . Can Marigold play chess with Dad?

“Remember yesterday? When we had that broccoli and cheddar soup with Club crackers? Dang, that seems like ages ago.”

Actually you threw a rock at the unicorn.

I STILL think a good part of you is young and innocent, Phoebe.

You’re never too old to associate with a unicorn.

Well, this one is a pretty good cartoon.(I don’t even remember being 50 something.)

“The Hub”.[]Did you see that they had a full eight-hour (give or take) Animaniacs mini-marathon on Christmas Eve?

Dana: However you’re uploading your strips, there’s got to be an easier way.

Hey, Britney Spears still plays with unicorns…

I remember when, as NBC was startig to show color programs around 1953–4, the promos, starting weeks before, would explain that, yes, you could watch the show on your B&W set, even though it was a color show. (That’s because the /first/ experimental color system, from CBS, couldn’t do that, which in turn is why the FCC chose NBC’s system instead of CBS’s. And /that/ is why CBS went into a snit and almost never showed anything in color—except “The Wizard of Oz”—until 1965, the year that NBC started showing everything in color, and CBS and ABC had to follow suit or look stupid.
