Posted by Lindy West on Wed, Jul 1, 2009 at 2:32 PM
Maybe you can help this guy out.
need unicorn for party rental (Kirkland-Redmond)My daughter's 8th birthday is coming up July 5th and i would like to rent a unicorn for her party again. Not too particular about color or age, brown or black are ok as well. but prefer adult versions rather than pony sized. Prefer not to have winged-type.
Please reply if you have one available to view this weekend. Will pay $200 /hr
thanks

That's twice the rate Sam Huck offered the hobbits and elves. Gotta love them whacky Microsoft millionaires!

Had I known one could rent a unicorn I totally would of had one at my birthday. Can I get a guy to dress up as Tim Curry in hoves too?

I saw several people dressed as unicorns on Sunday, but I don't think their outfits are appropriate for a child's party.

Ahem... I am sure that I wasn't the only girl this happened to, but at a carnival/circus once when I was little, I totally bugged my parents to pay a couple of bucks for me to see the "unicorn" in the freak show. Yeah, that was a disappointment. I'm pretty sure it was a goat with one of its horns sawed off.

This dude is nuts. A unicorn would cost way more than $200 to rent. Also there is no "winged-type". Horses with wings are Pegasuses (Pegusi?).

Argh... I have a horse... But how do I make him a unicorn??? I am unemployed and could REEEAAALLY use $200/hour under the table!

#21 staple gun and hot glue. You may want to set aside an afternoon for this and already dial 9-1 on your phone.

@21: Could we do a Slog ladies mob to see and pet (and possibly ride) your horse? I have six months of Aqua Barn lessons under my belt.
@24: How did you get the picture off of my second grade Trapper Keeper?

You need to talk to Otter G'Zell:
The following year Otter and Morning Glory's pursuit of
the Unicorn bore fruit with the birth of the first two baby
Unicorns in over 400 years: Lancelot and Belvidere. Thus
catapulted back into the world after years of seclusion, the
next few years were a whirlwind of appearances,
interviews, television and renaissance faires. They
obtained patents and copyrights on the process, and made
various licensing arrangements as well. Then in 1984,
their agent netted a contract with Ringling Bros. Barnum &
Bailey Circus for four years exclusive exhibition rights.
I sometimes miss Ukiah.

The Bible tells us that unicorns are real!
Psalm 92:10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
