This is That, and vice versa
Rumpelstiltskin is known for spinning Straw into Gold. The associated Rhino Question is: who needs Gold, and for what?
In the Rhino Version, the transformation is from Gold into Straw . After all, Straw is edible and smells good.
That’s a trick worth knowing! Yummy.

Jack may not be especially bright, but he is pretty Nimble, which works to his advantages in times of Stress. Running away may lack elegance, but it often reflects the superiority of the foe in question.
Moral superiority might be nice, but Jack is a sneak thief, so he reverts to type and scrams.
Scramming works.
A Moreness of Dwarfs
Snow White, a princess-in-hiding, visits a cluster of Dwarfs, out of the blue. Everybody gets along well, after some initial adjustments.
Rhinos are good at odd accommodations, not only in territory, but also with other folk. Rhinos are Flexible. Most of the time.
There are more than three Dwarfs, which qualifies them as a Crowd.

Cinderella had quite a wardrobe, and the sophistication to make it pay off. Fortunately, all Rhinos have access to mind-boggling Fashion, being fueled with Imagination. Imagination is useful for Us, as fairy godmothers are in short supply.
Please note that Rhinos don’t use glass slippers. Despite tonnage issues, the real problem is that Rhinos do not wear shoes; We like to be in direct contact with the sod. Gets Us down to Earth, as it were.
We make do with ankle bracelets, which come in a range of styles. One size fits all.
Buckle your Seatbelts
No matter what the Temptation to come Unglued, We are depending on you Readers to Get a Grip: YIR is taking a few days off.
It is possible you will have some Withdrawal Symptoms, night jitters, drooling, split ends, etc.
Keep your powder dry; the Staff will be back on the job shortly. Until then, Chill.

Here at Your Inner Rhino, We are on your side, whatever the issue!
That is one of our Policies. Among many…
Combination Platter
Today all Rhinos celebrate, once again, the 1856 birthday of L. Frank Baum. What a world he created, the first truly USA fairy tale, The Wizard of Oz! Very exciting, no matter when he comes to mind.
Also, today is National Chocolate Chip Day, which may demand rescheduling for you. It will for Us.
Find a yellow brick road, and skip down it, cookies in your backpack!
The Apple of my Eye
Mother’s Day was begun by Ms. Anna Jarvis (b.1864). Her intention was to honor the influence of Mothers both in the home and the nation. The first Mother’s Day was celebrated in 1908.
Hard to believe Ms. Jarvis was not actually a Rhino, but We applaud her work just the same. Credit where credit is due.
Fittingly, today is also National Apple Pie Day.
The Swing of Things…
