How do ponies fit into post-colonial dynamics, pray? Trains and the insistent push of technology, blah blah progress is hoodoo, yes; but I am blanking on the ponies.

I interpreted it to mean "the social scientist thought about it first".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Actually, if we're thinking of the same equine, I thought it was fascinating that as our hero rounded the corner into the scene, that he was a knight and not a cowboy. I'm biased, of course, by not being American, but knights and cowboys are about equally irrelevant to my life and history. I just loved the Mother England slant to the heroics, and found them delightfully consistent.

That would just be "considered." It's not well-considered unless I agree.

This is true. I would be vaguely amazed by this, since the production was an American one, except that half the point of the human conflict was cowboy versus knight. Notably, the knight managed to keep more of his peeps alive, whereas the cowboy was NSM with the preserve-and-protect ethos. Also, the cowboy was way rude.

Hey all! Guess what? Today should be the day! Today we should be breaking 100,000 degrees here in Tucson. Yeah!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I am such a girl. I looked at that and my first thought was, "Oooh. I like those shoes."

Detente has been brought to the hotdog world! (Chicago Tribune reg required.) Yes, the president of Vienna Beef talked with the president of S. Rosen Bakery, and S. Rosen is now going to be selling their hotdog buns in packages of 8 (and 16 at Costco) to match the standard eight hotdogs package.
It's the little things that make me happy.
