The Nexus Complex Maintenance Division has completed and signed off on the work-order #211409-082107 for the installation of various Unicorn Hug Protective Alarm Devices (UHP-AD's) throughout the "Freefall" Forum and aboard the ship, "Savage Chicken."

Installation of UHP-AD's are planned and will be completed at the White Pony Mall and several of the other Forums located on "The Nice."

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this scheduled period of installation for your protection against random acts of Unicorn Hugs.

If you really need to break the glass, you've always got a unicorn handy to break the glass with.

Nope, no design flaw...little hammers are to convenient for people who want to play with the little red rubber ball.

Correct! If you need the balls, you have to have the unicorn there to hug. HA! I made a funny. and I need to get to bed...my brain is going to mush from the lack of sleep from the past several days.

True enough, but don't forget about the large number of liability suits Dewey, Chetium and Howe, Attorneys at Law have won.

I thought they were only interested in stuff about Cars. Oh no, that's Dewey, Cheetham, & Howe. (different spelling)

I bought the book "Childproof the Unicorns" from Plan Nine Publishing last year.

Click here to listen to "The John Dunbar Theme" Then return to viewing the animation while listening to the background music by clicking back into the previous window where this message is located. Then sit back and enjoy watching Florence, who appears to like unicorn hugs.

The Nice isn't responsible for the replacements or cleanup. That's already been budgeted into the Nexus Complex's Annual Budget.

And as for arresting me...as soon as the news got out that the local authorities had arrested an innocent unicorn, their chances for re-election have been destroyed. And as you know, any elected official doesn't have a back-bone when it comes to re-election concerns.

So I'm not concerned in the least and neither should anyone else.

Oh, I'm not concerned. I'm the one working on their computers.

Mega-Whoops, anybody? (For all those old Paranoia players.)

Since the red rubber ball dispensers have been properly installed in the various forums, the only thing left to do is to join into a cyrkle and give Poney Blanc a group hug.

With regards,
Ted

White Pony pecked his way through the alphabet, and came up with this:

Click here to listen to "The John Dunbar Theme" Then return to viewing the animation while listening to the background music by clicking back into the previous window where this message is located. Then sit back and enjoy watching Florence, who appears to like unicorn hugs.

**Sigh** Unfortunately for me, the last couple of days, the only song I can think of when I see this topic line is a song from the 60's (1960's) entitled, I believe, "Red Rubber Ball."

"Well I think it's going to be allright
Yes, the worst is over now.
The morning sun is shining like
a Red Rubber Ball...."

Can anybody tell me who sang this, and what the actual title is?

Sometimes it's wierd how things work...but this little song sort of sums up a lot about the past few days.

Thank you Hortmage...

Look in Ted's post immediately before yours. There had to be a reason he spelled cyrkle so strangely.

Welcome back to this realm, Pony. Over the past couple of days, you seemed to be fading out of existence.

I came very close to fading out completely. Had to step back for a little while to reflect on points made in another forum. Stepping back allows one to see the bigger picture--if they’ll only open their eyes to the rest of the world around them.

As for myself...I’m healing from the gash to my upper right leg...I plan on seeing “Spirit, The Stallion of the Cimarron” again this Tuesday, and I’m looking forward to Florence’s Shopping Day at the Mall as the story unfolds in “Freefall.”

Hugs to you all.

Thanks for the link. I had noticed that, but just chocked it up to typical "inturnet speling".

Don't celebrate too soon, folks. Check out WP's "taking a break" thread on Freefall. The letter-writing campaign has already begun. SAVE OUR PONY!
