700BPP: Hey GN…can you read?
GN: No, I though you knew how to read? I always see you in your stall with a book propped up above your salt lick.
700BPP: Nope can’t read a word. I just pretend since Red-Riter wrote a book about me and everything. You gotta promise not to tell her cuz’ she really, really thinks I’m having the best time reading about myself!!
GN: Your secret is safe with me.
700BPP: You know I’ve seen letters like this before…but they were always when RR was riding me in a ring. I wonder if we should go up to the first house and see if a dressage person answers the doorbell. Maybe they can tell us what it says.
GN: I don’t think our hoofs are small enough to ring the doorbell…I have a better idea…let me turn on On(e) Star again!

700BPP: Yep it’s working.

And what oh what is to become of our Couch Critics?..I see everyone is still out cold…OH NO!!!..Amwrider’s tatongas are almost gone!!! And what’s happened to everyone’s feather???

Will anyone be able to help them? Will Red-Riter and Ridem-Num-Bottom find the majic feather? Does the Broke-Back-Majical-Medicine-Woman-on-the-Mountain have enough good majic to save everyone???

Stay tuned…

I just use a straw. :cool:

RNB, y’all ain’t right.

For which I am quite grateful. :lol::lol: Your continuity is astonishing! And you have the prowess of, um, Ms Rowling herself at incorporating characters we have not seen for many pages. :winkgrin:

I think On-Star might be my favorite touch - stroke of freaking brilliance. :yes:

OMG, they aren’t tatongas anymore, they aren’t even tatas. Those are itty bitty t!tt!es. :eek:

I thought all horses came equipped with On Star…you just drop the reins and it activates the signal. Of course, they can only go one place: home. Which may not be your home, but them’s the breaks.

And I thought the size changing tatongas were part of her majic. Like mood rings.

And a last thought…I would like to thank the moderators for allowing the thread to continue…yes, it is horse related. And board related. But probably not what COTH had in mind.

Although, for all I know, they’re on the couch, or under it. I’m still sitting in the driver’s seat in the truck, waiting to see if anyone wants a ride.

OMG – I love OnStar, the resurfacing of “Shun the Non-believer!” (Charlie stuck in my head for WEEKS after I first saw it…kinda creepy)
and I’m embarassingly pleased at the Michaels reference. Makes me feel like I contributed in some tiny way…though I agree with Frank B and think his suggestion that ‘magikal feathers’ would come from a Gypsy Vanner is quite accurate!!
<<crawling back into my lurk mode again>>

Can one of you draw Karen and Teddy on the cover of SI (or better yet Newsweek) so that thread can relax? :cool:

:lol:

I wish I could - unfortunately my skills are limited to things I can copy and there isn’t anything close enough to get me there.

Goin Nowhere: Check this guy out… what’s up with that pink feather… you think he’s the lead horse in a Gay Pride Parade…
$700BPP- Don’t know… I don’t see anyone else… Hey you there… Pinky.!!What’s up?
Rowdy: Pinky??? crap I still got the blasted feather on my head… I swear one of these days I’m just gonna buck that b@tch off and just forget about it… Um… hey guys… My names Rowdy and I…
$700BPP: ROWDY?? Man are you that poor horse from those video’s my mom was talkin’ about… she made you make those AND put that fruity feather on your head… man your life sucks…
Rowdy: Tell me about it… Well that Pony Boy fellow has put microchips in these blasted things for mind control… he tried to put the whammy on me but I gelded him and got away… I came here looking for help…
Goin’ Nowhere: For that crazy owner of yours??? Dude you have a PINK FEATHER on your head…
Rowdy: sighs I know… but I really don’t care about her it’s the other poor suckers I’m worried about… So can you help me or not???
GN and $700BPP: Sure we’ll help… we’ve just got to find where the couch critics are at… to give them this note… GN onstar has gotten us close but I think it is a few houses off… we keep ending up in a cornfield…
Rowdy: Well let’s take it one house at a time… surely they can’t be far away…
