Week 223 Wrap Up

A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse! Or a pony. Or something...

I think this play may still need a bit of editing. I've been told it was written by... some famous guy whose name I can't recall. My brain is like that. But still, half the writing here looks like Princess Luna-speak. I just hope it's not spoken at Princess Luna volume; my eardrums would not be happy about that, and I doubt the audience's eardrums would be either. So yeah, I think this play needs work.

But then again, I'm just a stagehoof here. It's not my job to review the script, it's my job to make sure all the technical work is handled properly. Somepony's gotta set up the scenery, maintain the props, handle the lighting, raise and lower the curtain, and so on and so on. And that pony is me! And the rest of the stage crew of course; I can't do all of that myself! We'd end up looking like a poorly run grade school performance. And something billed as a Great Tragedy shouldn't be in the running for Best Comedy Act, if you get what I mean.

At any rate, I need to get back to work. But if you would like to see what the stage crew does, feel free to take a peek behind the curtain below:

Someone has got to run the light, or the play would be dark as night. - fetchbeer

All her friends are socks on hooves, but she doesn't notice their odd moves. - fetchbeer

All is not always as it seems, especially if your behind the scenes. - fetchbeer

This pony is the only one who doesn't like an encore, though if he refuses them he'd be shown the door. - fetchbeer

I'm not sure gummy could lift that pony, he seems to think this scene is baloney. - fetchbeer

Week 222 Wrap Up

Alright, everypony. We've got a mystery on our hands! ...err, yes. I know ponies don't actually have hands. And no, that's not the mystery. And what is the mystery, you might ask? Well...

I don't know. That is the mystery that we must solve: finding out what the mystery is! After all, how can we unmask the villain behind the monster if we don't even know what monster is terrorizing the locals. For that matter, we don't even know if there is a monster in the first place! This could be a different kind of mystery; perhaps a whodunit, like the ones that Prancy Drew becomes entangled in. Or a Daring Do-style artifact hunt!

Or maybe we'll just need to figure out what the mystery toy in my cereal box is.

Well, we may not know what mystery we'll need to confront, but at least we've got plenty of ponies to put on this case. See them all below:

Changing others against their will, makes their voices rather shrill. - fetchbeer


02. pony-x


Her favorite gun is a colt, which will give you quite a jolt. - fetchbeer

"Starlight Over Detrot" inspires again.

Week 221 Wrap Up

Hello, everypony, and welcome to the wonderful world of fashion! Ponies of all walks of life have gathered here today to check out the newest line of dresswear from the hottest new designers. And there's so much energy here! The glitz and glam, the posh and pizzazz, the bacon and eggs... Wait, this last cue card is a gryphon breakfast menu. Now how did that get in here?

Well, never mind that. It's time to unveil the new dresses! So let's all turn our eyes to the runway and watch for the first model to appear.




Gallery for Week 194

Week 220 Wrap Up

Ugh... Things have been so tiring as of late. All this stuff with spacefarers and special pilots and 'parsecs' has made a mess of our art supply... err, supply lines. We've got all sorts of pencils and markers and sheets of paper that need to be sorted out, and we've got the opening of the new gallery tonight to boot!

Oh, right. The new gallery! This is what you're all here for, after all; not to listen to the griping of an overworked staffer who's probably dragging this "Ham Salad" gag out too far. *clears throat*

So, without further ado, here's a gallery full of pictures of ponies who are just as tired and/or overworked as... somepony who is tired and/or overworked. Yeah, that's the best I can do right now, I'm afraid. I can't think of a better reference than that because of how tired and overworked I am... oh, right. Err, at any rate, here's the new gallery!




Gallery for Week 193



01. Speedy526745


A wheel so big it crushes a city, though it's not as dangerous as a kitty. - fetchbeer


02. Cobralash


Bubble floating gently in a swamp, but you worry about things that chomp. - fetchbeer


03. HalflingPony
Nap In the Orchards

Applebloom may become a fool, when she wakes all covered in drool. - fetchbeer


04. pony-x


Looking at tons of tiny forms, to make sure they fit the norms. - fetchbeer

Desks don't make for good pillows, but better than armadillos. - fetchbeer


08. Scuri Levenstein


Insults always have a bit of sting, even when they lack a zing. - fetchbeer

Week 219 Wrap Up

See, I told you he couldn't do it. 'Do it in twelve parsecs' my flank! I think the dude's just pretending to be someone else anyways. Seriously, what kind of pony calls himself 'Ham Salad'? Does he even know what ham is made...

Err... gottacallyouback!

*coughs* Sorry about that. I should probably stop calling that guy on Sundays. But enough of that interruption. Come in, come in, everypony! Indeed, 'coming in' is the theme of the week. "What goes up must come down", and all that, and the spacefaring ponies that blasted off last week are now returning to Equestria. So feel free to join us here to watch the spectacle of their descent, but do be mindful of the landing area. Spacecraft aren't exactly known for slow descents, after all.




Gallery for Week 192



01. Speedy526745


Winning a decent place to stand, though it wasn't the grandest of the grand. - fetchbeer


02. pony-x


Riding a surfboard to the stars, far better than flying cars. - fetchbeer


03. Dredaich


Not even the atmosphere slows this pony down, for her speed she is renown. - fetchbeer


04. Jezendar
She's coming in for an impromptu landing.

Always watch for holes and rocks, otherwise you'll suffer scrapes and shocks. - fetchbeer


05. Vaser888


Riding a bomb is a bit dangerous, but is guaranteed to make you famous. - fetchbeer

Week 218 Wrap Up

Look, look. I don't care if he can do the run in twelve parsecs, I still don't think it's a good idea. And anyways, isn't a parsec a unit of length, not time? It just sounds really shady to m-err...

Gottacallyouback! *hangs up the phone*

Ah, hello there; didn't hear you all come in. It seems that it's time to showcase our new weekly exhibit. And this week's theme is the vastness of space, and the deeds of those who travel between the stars! But don't worry, while space may be largely empty, the gallery certainly isn't!

But don't take my word for it. Come and see for yourselves:




Gallery for Week 191



01. Speedy526745


Is this pony a shooting star? Or do they just like to act bizarre? - fetchbeer


02. Cobralash
Amethyst from Steven Universe

Standing on a picturesque fallen log, far better than a wet and muddy slog. - fetchbeer

How giant does one have to be, to reach the moon from the sea? - fetchbeer


04. pony-x


Setting lanterns as the stars, they may be high but they are ours. - fetchbeer

A secret chest in a hidden place, may take these ponies to space. - fetchbeer


06. Stone39


How does that mane work with air? Or is the helmet covered with hair? - fetchbeer


07. Stone39


Covered in precious gems and stones, may cause some to emit groans. - fetchbeer


08. Jezendar
FOR THE EMPRAH!

This unicorn loves her tiny toys, or at least the ones for the game she enjoys. - fetchbeer

Week 217 Wrap Up

Another week's gone by, and now I've gotta write the blog post again. Another blog post, another set of pictures to show, another set of viewers to show them to. I'm getting too old for this...

Wait, did I say that out loud? *coughs*

Umm, never mind that. At my age, you sometimes forget that thinking isn't supposed to be 'out loud'. And that boots are made for walking, not eating. And that 'fresh' doesn't mean what it used to. And that your toupee goes on your head, not your rump. And that it isn't good to ramble on and on and on... err, like I'm doing.

Well, don't let me keep you youngins any longer. You've got pictures to go check out, so go on. Scoot! Unless you want me to tell you the full story about how Great Grandpa Horseradish managed to bite his own tail off again. Yeah, I didn't think so.

Foals these days...




Gallery for Week 190

Even lifetimes can't prepare, for the attention of an ancient mare. - fetchbeer
