Between 4 and 6 revisited

As you recall back in early May we had this theory for which Muse is #5.

Then the poet seemed to indicate in the Variations poem that it's Melpomene, the muse of tragedy or drama, twin sister to Thalia the muse of comedy.

However it turns out there are many other possibilities, here are six:

I think Dwarf is onto something. She may very well be Blogia. Perhaps with the wardrobe sense of Eartha. Meow.

Who cares about 5M. Francis Heaney called my little pictures a "guest strip" and said "nicely done"!

Maybe I should re-evaluate my plan to go back to mining school in the fall.

I concur with Agatha. This is out of character for the 5M.

There is something big going on with the 5M, unless she has suddenly skipped town.

If we don't hear from her by the end of the week, I suggest a full deployment of the field operatives.

And 4thDwarf, we've already talked about the level of self-indulgence going on in our blog...

Agatha, I'll stay in school.

And, Chair, you can talk about me being self-indulgent, but I think you're just jealous that you're not getting props in Roy Lichtenstein's Blog.

The Chair said...

That Lichtenstein is so derivative.

But thanks for the new image references for future photoshop work.

I like the hi-res quality.

Yes, the 5M has gone underground. Agatha's suggestion of sweeping the hospitals may have some merit. And if you need to take it a step further, here's a handy tool:

I consider my comment not so much a polite way but a shorter way of calling you "a bunch of people who keep making references to someone named 5M that I totally didn't understand to start with and that I continued to totally not understand even after browsing the archives a bit."

Francis, you seem to be telling us that you think that we may have hidden the maguffin rather too well. That's intentional. Stick with us, and all will be revealed in due course. It ain't quite a Faberge egg, but it's ours, and we're rather proud of it. And love your 'toons, by the way...

4th Dwarf said...

That's right: It ain't quite a Faberge egg

coyote said...

Well, that's disgustingly organic. Not that I object to doing a little egg-sucking in better henhouses everywhere.... but I'd pictured something a little more jewel-like, even if it ain't Faberge.
