Hi all:

First I would like to give a special shoutout to MisterNick a good person and a fantastic writer. It is his vision combined with mine that has helped to create this world of horror and deserves as much credit. I am humbled to and honored to know him and strongly suggest following him as he is a great writer and still does wonderful reviews of old movies.

Written with the help of Co-writer MisterNick

First before I begin I would like to thank The hard work of MisterNick and Maii together with myself have helped design and create this series.

I am humbled and honored to have both of them helping me. Bringing an idea to life and more than that, something truly terrifying.

Well, it's Thanksgiving and I have to say it's been quite the day. Spent time with family. I ate some food and I watched some movies. I provided some commentary on that and one of the football games and muted the sound and watched as the commentators and various players made some rather bizarre faces.

One month ago I put up the story A Date with a Friend. I can safely say that I've never written a story, hit the send button and thought, "Crap, I should have actually read through that thing." Well, that's what happened with that story. I didn't read through it. I didn't do my due diligence.

Richard M. Nixon was the the 37th president of the United States. Before that he was Vice President under Dwight D. Eisenhower, a member of the house of representatives, a naval officer, lawyer and periodically during his life an author. He appeared on a few television shows including The Mickey Mouse Club, Laugh-In and various late night television comedy shows like Jack Paar or The Merv Griffin Show. When asked on (if I recall in 1968) one of said shows if he planned to announce that he

The Cutier Mark Crusaders are on spiritual or philosophical quest to discover the self. Some philosophers like Descartes, refer to the self as an individual entity expressed by the conduct and discourse of said individual. In the case of Descartes he came up with "Cogito ergo sum," or I think therefore I am. Lao Tzu philosophized that, "Knowing others is wisdom. Knowing the self is enlightenment. Mastering others requires force. Mastering the self requires strength." Plato argued that

Thanksgiving is here. Diets will be blown! Party games will be played with the family. Toilets will be destroyed and then people will roll out to various stores to pillage like their barbarian forefathers did. Except, instead of gold coins or salted herring it will be for things like weird computer gizmos and clothes that don't fit.

So, I was in Wal-Mart a few days ago because I had to pick up a storage container due to one of mine breaking. The lesson that night was don't wear steel toe boots and try to kick something across the floor. So, while I was there I decided to poke around in the party supply area because it was two in the morning and it wasn't like I had anything better to do.

So back in March I did a series of stupid things apparently. The problem is that I'm not sure which one of them caused the problem I'm dealing with currently. See it could be because I kicked a large heavy object when it fell toward me. It could have been the hole in the yard that I stepped in. Heck it could be a couple of other things that ... frankly I'm baffled how they would hurt a knee but if you can sneeze and paralyze yourself I can wonder if that was what caused it.

I get the feeling that Princess Luna has the worst job out of the princesses. I'm not talking about raising the moon and getting no real credit for it because apparently every horse in the land goes to bed at a sensible time. By the way what is a sensible time? I say go to bed when you're tired. Who cares if it's 10 pm or seventy five hours from now. But I digress.

So, where have I been. I mean honestly this has been the first time I've submitted anything since July of last year. The truth is I've really been absolutely nowhere. I've weaved my way through the many days avoiding angry crowds of one stripe or another. I've paid my bills mostly on time if not for the laziness of the local parcel services I'd be on time. I've worked at my job and one foot on one leg hurts regularly while the other knee pops loudly. Various people that I've called

Is it just me or is it strange that there exists an I love you balloon that has Tina Turner singing Simply the Best but to get the song to play you have to smack the balloon? I'm not saying that it's a first I'm just saying that in a store that sells the Mustache Wiggler Love Monkey and Brad's Kale Vampire Killer Chips it's a little unusual. Then again today was a little unusual.

I said I'd speak about alicorns and so I shall. If there was ever an argument to be made against the rule of alicorns I think that the ponies of Equestria could make a clear and decisive case for it. It's not that they've generally meant ill will toward their subjects, it's just that they don't really do anything worthy of their lofty status as rulers.

There's something about old soup that just doesn't have any real appeal. I'm not talking, "We made it two days ago and we have to have it again because there's so much of it," old soup. I'm talking about, "Hey look I found a can of it in the pantry and it's six months past the expiration date, well nobody else is going to eat it," old soup. Well here I sit with that particular can of old soup warmed and ready for consumption. As I look at the steaming bowl I can't help but think that

It's been a long two months. Nothing good in theaters, long hours at work, a snowstorm, the computer burning out and a bottle of bird dog, it's been down right uneventful. So, I decided to revisit a movie I'd seen and do something I don't usually do... an outline for a cartoon movie I'd seen on how I'd have done it. I admit it's probably rushed and all in one sitting but it's what I've got.

Sima Yi was an ambitious Chinese politician and general. He was one of if not the top adviser to Cao Cao and most of his descendents. Through shrewd political maneuvering, force, and betrayal he was able to end the Three Kingdoms period in China and establish the Jin Dynasty which lasted from 265 - 420. So why do I bring any of this up? Well, if anyone could stand to learn a thing or two from Sima Yi it's Spike.

If friendship magic is the most powerful force in the universe and Princess Celestia is the most powerful alicorn in the world, why doesn't she have any friends? Has anyone else noticed this? Celestia doesn't hang out with anyone. Her big skill is she can raise the sun. So in other words she is skilled at turning the light on. She used to be able to turn the light off too but, I guess her shorter sister who has to monitor all of the world's dreams took that job too.

Is it just me or is the crystal map version of Charlie from Charlie's Angels who summons a couple of ponies to do some friendship quest kind of dumb? No seriously, outside of the first mission they went on the map is kind of dumb. The first mission they met up and broke up the pony version of the Orwellian town and restored individuality to the ponies there (at least for awhile). This was a good mission. It was a mission well worth taking. After that though, not really quite so

You ever notice that when a year comes to an end there's this glut of people who will tell you it was the best or worst year ever. I mean they will literally sit there and get way too emotional about the previous year one way or another and stare at you with bloodshot eyes, smelling of patchouli and Old English and just go on about how they feel about whatever has happened that has led to this conclusion. I can tell you right now that 2016 was neither the best or worst year ever. It was
