okay, I’m back from the “The Last Unicorn” event, and had one hell of a time. First, I did get to meet Dana and she turned out to be just as nice as you could figure she is, if not nicer. I got a poster that features Marigold and Almathea (the aforementioned Last Unicorn" nose-to-nose, signed by both Dana and Peter Beagle (what a rush!), met tons of unicorn fans who mostly didn’t know about Heavenly Nostrils (they do now, you betcha), learned several things about HN, including the fact that newspaper syndication starts Real Soon Now (yes, real newspapers!), and that the collection will be available next year. Good news all around! There was other good news that I can’t share (sorry), too.I figure that there were three red-letter happenings today. First, I got to meet two of my bona-fide comic goddesses (Dana and Shaenon K. Garrity), got to watch a super-HD version of The Last Unicorn (watch for it to show up near you – it’s totally worth it) with Peter Beagle himself, and got a membership in the Museum of Cartoon Art in SF., absolutely worth it if you’re in the area. I’m pleased and exhausted, in that order.
I spent the day at the Midwest Horse fair. I saw the worlds tallest living horse. Big Jake. He is a real ham, and loves a good scratch. I saw Jason drive the six horse Preifert Percheron Thunder team (12,300 lbs of galloping black horses). He drove them roman style, standing on the backs of the last two horses, totally awesome! I won’t mention the shopping. According to the animal communicator, many horses really love to show off, just like a certain unicorn we all know!
So Marigold can’t hide. We should leaf her alone. but I was thinking of Lord Splendid. Since he’s so good at hiding I wounder if he can be found in strips before we knew to look for him? He could have been with us since the beginning just not viable.
Oh, she /can/ hide, if she wants to, but chooses not to. She recognizes how limited and unmagically inept Phoebe is! It just wouldn’t be fair to the inferior naked mole rat.

Go play with Lord Spindid whoever, Phoebe; he’s VERY good at hiding.

There is certainly no humble splendidity (?) for Marigold!

Phoebe wins.

Couldn’t Marigold just put up a shield of boringness?
John W Kennedy Premium Member almost 11 years ago
But this raises serious philosophical issues. Is Marigold truly the pinnacle of perfection if she cannot perfectly hide?
