Hey folks.

I SWEAR I'm not going to make a habit of these...

Okay, the thing that was prohibiting me from being at the Alabama Phoenix Festival in Birmingham on Saturday fell apart, so...

I might be there on Saturday, too, now. So, Friday, May 30 and Saturday June 1, selling, talking, hanging. Wife would be there on Saturday, too. Just an FYI for anyone that might have been able to make it then.

((ALARM SOUNDS))

ATTENTION! WE INTERRUPT THIS BLOG FOR SHAMELESS PROMOTION. AND STUFF.

AVAST!! There be spoilers ahead! Proceed at your own peril, for secrets await ye with big, nasty, pointy teeth!

You have been warned!

Okay, now that I've gotten that out of the way--and for some reason wrote like a pirate--let me reiterate what I said in the title of this post: wow. I was very worried about the season finale. Something about it was gnawing at me deep inside, making me worry about what was to come.

I feel so foolish for not trusting Megan McCarthy.

Hello there.

I'm going to say this up front. This is a post about shameless self-promotion. If you aren't interested, I thank you for getting this far, but you might want to leave.

If you are reading this line, THANKS DOUBLE!!

Well, I said it was coming, and I meant it.

Theoretically, later today the newest chapter of the Who Rules? series will hit. Circles is a far shorter, far more intimate tale, focusing on a smaller cast of characters, but still carrying a big impact in my odd little fan-verse. (My wife loved this one, so hopefully you guys will, too.)

I've said it before, I know, but still...

I love this fandom. And I love my fans. The things that most of us are willing to do in the name of "doing the right thing" is inspirational.

So, I hope that everyone is spending today with someone they love, romantic or not.

And to that end, excuse me while I go spend time with my wife.

:)

Okay, wild theoretical supposition time...

So, another alicorn was spotted. This time in the background of a scene in Rainbow Falls. And I think we all know there was one in the background of Rarity Takes Manehatten by now. And in both of those episodes, those ponies received what is suspected (rightfully, I think) to be their "keys."

Coincidence? Hmmmm...

Well, this sucks.

Apparently, the Ask Molestia blog has been destroyed. Joseco claims that he's not bringing it back, and I can't really blame him. He's taken hell for that blog, and I don't think that it's justified.

So, let me just say thank you to him here, as I will on his other blog, for the work that he did. I hate that it's gone, but I'm glad that I read what he had done. It was clever and funny and at times very warm and affectionate.

Nothing lasts forever, though.

Wow. We need more of those.

Overall, I've loved season four. I think that they've got a great handle on what they want to do, and are executing it wonderfully. Hasn't been a clunker episode in the season. That said, Pinkie Apple Pie leaps up to being one of my favorite episodes of the series. The song is still stuck in my head, and the laughs were just right. I can't find any serious faults with this episode. It just hit me perfectly right.

So happy.

:)

I've said it before, but I love this fandom. I hope that all of you find the spirit of love and friendship filling your lives not only for this night, but for the coming year.

Thanks for giving this old pony the love that you have.

:)
