Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for July 16, 2015

“Unioncorn…” LOL! Great one, Dana!

Sung to the tune of Dire Straits’, “Industrial Disease”[]“Now warning lights are flashing out in Boringness ControlSomebody turned their shield off, they’re visibleThere’s rumors in the pasture and anger in the townSomebody blew a whinny and the stalls came tumbling downThere’s a meeting in the tackroom, they’re trying to get the wordThere’s leaking in the wash stall, there’s a rat inside the herd.Somewhere in the paddock, a mare was heard to wheeze.Goodness me, could this be Equestrial Disease?”

Well done, Jester. I could almost sing it.

Phoebe’s pun could actually be easily translated into my language: “Fagforenhjørning”, a combination of the Norwegian words “fagforening” (=union) and “enhjørning” (=unicorn)

I suppose even unicorns need a retirement plan.

But what would Marigold do if she turned off the shield of boringness and nobody noticed because they aren’t used to paying attention to the world around them?

The Shield Of Boringness Doesn’t have the same flourish as it used too.

UNICORN!

Agreed Phoebe.

So, if Phoebe is riding Marigold through the park is she:a. not seen at allb. seen riding a horse/bike etcc. seen floating in mid air
