Hi melody,
I was really delighted with my poad(tm) when i recieved her yesterday, i have since been telling everyone how fantastic they are.
Now all the ‘men folk’ who have seen the poad(tm) think they are really weird and want to know more about them… they were dissapointed that the shop said no explanation required. They said something about them looking like chickens and want to now where on earth you got the idea from.
All my other friends me included said they hey are cute and i will be buying another one as will some other people i hope.8)
August 31, 2007 at 5:56 pm #613071It’s a guinea-pig-griffon with no wings! 😆 Just kidding…I really don’t know!
August 31, 2007 at 6:25 pm #613072I think Melody stated that the Poads(tm) come from the comic book she is working on (Reptangle) and that the Poads are partners (friends, or really neat pets in some way) of the Wizards in the comic.
A picture of a few was posted to the forum way back when and we all fell in love, and Melody decided to share them with us… And most of us tend to adore them, even if they do talk by farting (hey, the card said tiny popping sounds that comes from their butt area) and poop tiny pretty stones that you can make into jewelry. 😉
Now watch, I remembered that totally wrong 😀
August 31, 2007 at 6:29 pm #613073😆 😆 😆 Oh I’ve got to get that comic!!

Poads(tm) are only minor characters, though. They are partners, and helpers of some of the main characters. There aren’t any wizards in this story. (That is one of the only cliche’s I have avoided, I’ve got most of the others covered.)
I am just fascinated that guys often have no use for Poads(tm), and women tend to think they are adorable! This is one of the properties they actually have in the story!! Males don’t dislike them, they just aren’t overly attracted to them like women are. I based that on the well known chick/horse phenomenon.I have a few images of poad(tm)sculptures of the past that I was going to post in my gallery, but until I get a computer of my own to use again, I can’t get images up easily.
As soon as I can, I will start posting pages from the comic, somewhere. Hopefully on its own webpage. (Gad it has only taken me thirty seven years!)

August 31, 2007 at 9:31 pm #613076i agree with the entire thing of females loving them..my girlfriend adores the poad you gave us melody..she has sneaked it out of my room more then a few times and i havent even really noticed rofl, i admit i like the little bugger but he just doesnt have the same appeal to me as lets say..my emperor dragons do 😆
August 31, 2007 at 9:45 pm #613077Thanks melody i will let them know! 😀
September 1, 2007 at 12:30 pm #613078I look forward to seeing that comic online.
September 1, 2007 at 6:37 pm #613079Me too!!! I’ve been dying to read it!!! 😀
September 1, 2007 at 7:19 pm #613080You are working on a comic. I already want one and I hope you get a webpage soon so we can see a little. Thirty seven years 😯
September 1, 2007 at 10:10 pm #613081I still don’t have a poad yet…but I want to get one. they are just too cute!
September 3, 2007 at 8:39 pm #613082You must get a Poad! They are adorable and just soooo unique. So far, my favorite color is still the regular Butternut with green eyes. But I love all my Poads equally.
