Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 30, 2012
Transcript:
Phoebe: You're not must of a "lone" ranger if you have me with you. Marigold: you are "Death." You are not so much a person as an abstract personification. You do not count against my lone-ness. Phoebe: That is TOTALLY concrete-personification of you. Marigold: I do not have to take insults from people who exist only in the abstract.

Sorry Marigold, but given a choice between The Willliam Tell Overture and Don’t Fear The Reaper, I’m with B.O.C. all the way

At least Marigold doesn’t play the harmonica through her horn…yet……I loved the Apprentice Adept series — at least the first three books. The second series with the robot adept was kind of curious. Didn’t quite like that series as much.

Marigold’s mask is cute. I’m glad I knew it was her, though, otherwise I might not have seen through the disguise! :P

Actually, from what I heard, “Indian” was derived from Columbus describing the natives of the newly discovered land as “personas in dios”.
But I suppose everyone deserves to be called what pleases them.

Except that Columbus thought he reached India!
I believe that is the “accurate” story. Columbus was trying to find another route to India by circumnavigating the globe.He didn’t expect there to be an entire continent blocking his way!

The Lone Ranger was but a single ranger, as opposed to a posse of Rangers, but he was never alone. One is never alone when you are with your horse.

I heard it was “Hindustan”.

There are about a gazillion and seven languages spoken in India, so it has a bunch of “real” names. The name “India” comes from the Indus river.
