We are Twenty!

9/22: I'm extending the contest until Friday. My
judge has first-grade to attend to during the busy
work week. Come on, people. I literally can't give away Crocker/Graziano. I understand we offend your sensibilities, but can't you at least use the chapbooks in your fire pit?

My friends, if you're one-one-thousandth as a neurotic as me (unlikely), you've noticed that my blog reached the coveted "20" followers today. I've been mouthing off about some big surprise forthcoming when we reached 20, but honestly, I got nothing for you. Therefore, I decided to ransack some old boxes and found some copies of Idiot Warriors and Men of Letters, chapbooks that I published with my good friend and heroin-addict Dan "The Big Flan" Crocker.

So here's the deal. I will mail copies of these chapbooks to the person who best answers the following question, posed by my 6-year-old daughter Paige:

What do all My Little Ponies have to possess in order to be authentic?

Post your answers in the "comments" section. The contest will be judged by Paige and close after Monday Night Football on 9/21. The winner will get their copies mailed on Tuesday morning. Good luck.

Note: Dan "Smell My Balls, They Reek Like Bleach" Crocker can't win.

Hey Nate --

Don't authentic My Little Ponies have, like, a heart tattooed on their little ponie asses?

All REAL My Little Ponies have have a heart on the bottom of their foot that says my little pony inside. It is usually pink.

People please...every one who's anyone (well, every one who's ever have the life sucked out of them as a marketeer) knows it has to be a Hasbro. I can't remember where, but their logo is tattooed somewhere on that horse's...of course I want to say ass but I'm pretty sure that's wrong...foot?

Hasbro on their foot, but just so i can add something that hasn't been said before, most of them are girls. So if you have a male my little pony, chances are... it's a fake. can i still win if i google searched my answer? Say yes.

They still have their nuts.

Mind you, folks, there is NO right answer. Paige will pick whichever one she fancies at the moment. I honestly have no clue what the answer is, and neither does she. So keep firing 'em. I'll announce the winner this weekend.

Like all "real" Barbies, they have pretty, flowing hair (which we then spend hours brushing, braiding, comparing to our friends' My Little Ponies' hair...).
