    We Call It Riding The Gravy Train

    We love the sound, that's really what we think. Oh by the way, which one's Pink?

    Got my first FiMPhishing PM! :pinkiegasp: Some bot going by the handle of "Alice artist" created an account on Wednesday, chose 20 semi-random accounts to "follow" on Friday and sent me this at 3:47 EST in the morning:

    20 Years a Blogger

    I started blogging on Live Journal on December 9th 2004 and I'm still at it, although I've switched to Dreamwidth. It's better. Two thirds of that time I have been under the thrall of MLP:FiM. That Twilight is from the Gift Set which I bought on March 17 2011. That was the very first MLP swag that I'd ever bought.

    I Told You So, An eBay Tale

    I'm missing the Fluttershy bank from my collection of F.A.B. Starpoint banks. If there had been any at the local Walmart, I never saw them, only the Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash banks. Since the Mint insists on flooding us with way too many commemorative coins, I have piles of them and not enough coin banks in which to dump them. So I was shy one bank.

Filling that Calendar Void · 2:17pm Nov 27th, 2024

It used to be that the Brony Thank You Fund would come out with a calendar every year. Then they over-estimated demand, BronyCon called it quits and they ended up sending a wack of calendars to the dump. So, with the exception of the 2024 Everfree Northwest fund raiser calendar, I was without monthly pony wall art to hang over my kitchen table. This would not do. To fill the void I started making my own calendars. I managed to cobble together 13 images for one calendar of my own visual art output, but for the rest I've trawled my folder of hundreds of works by others to produce a 2022, a 2023 and a 2025 calendar (so far). Since I select images from a pool, my calendars are superior to what the BTYF and EN could hope for using their custom submission/commission model. A custom calendar only costs me $16 and is printed on spiral bound card-stock. Since it's so cheap, I also make my own photography calendars. I'm better at photography than I am at drawing and I've been at it longer, so I manage to put together a good calendar mix just using my own images. To top it all off, I buy at least one horse calendar every year. I'd better go do that now, before the good ones sell out.
