If you find the "special" Tootsie Pop wrapper with an Indian and try to redeem it, you will be disappointed.

Tootsie Roll Industries launched their chewy centered Tootsie Pop in 1931 and shortly thereafter the rumour started that if you found a tootsie pop wrapper bearing an Indian shooting a star with his bow and arrow, you could redeem it for a bag of candy.

Nobody is quite sure how this rumour started, but it was never introduced or sanctioned by the Tootsie Roll company. The rumour has persisted until this day, with the company processing around 150 letters from hopeful customers every week.

The company used to simply reply with a let down letter, but in 1982 they decided to create the "Legend of the Indian Wrapper," a story that was included with the return letters.

The idea behind the story was that executives felt it would be better to give children a story to read rather than just a let down letter as this would help to sooth the disappointment.

Mozilla is looking to change up the look of Firefox. The latest beta version, Firefox 29, introduced a major redesign to the beloved desktop browser, changing up the toolbars, menu and tabs. Hope you weren’t too comfortable with the current layout, because things are going to get shuffled around going forward. The new design approach is apparently called “Australis,” via PC World, and is supposed to feel “bubblier” than the old one. Mozilla explained that the new Firefox will be faster, simplified and easier to customize.

There’s now a customize button that can be accessed from the menu, where users can manually drag and drop their favorite feature, add-on or tool into the browser. This will make it much easier to access the features you use most—think of them along the lines of Chrome apps. Mozilla said it wants Firefox to make it easier to access content, and the look (screenshot above) reflects a much cleaner design. Tabs apparently have a “more fluid and streamlined shape,” and sit higher up in the browser now.

In addition, Firefox 29 also includes Firefox Accounts, which syncs bookmarks, tabs, and settings without the need for a code to pair multiple devices. You will, however, have to create a Firefox Account, where your data will then be stored and encrypted on Mozilla servers.

I've seen a ton of Maud these last few days, but how well did she do on her opening day? It looks like around 100,000 less of you tuned in for this one compared to Somepony to Watch Over Me, clocking in at 521k vs Somepony's 625k.  I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Maud had more of an impact though.  Either that or you all are too afraid to draw a Chimera.

Thanks to Ian for sending it!

Oh ! Twilight is here !

Is that who I think it is? Have my MLP Comic prayers finally been answered? Did converting to Celestism cause this? Why is there so much Trixie lately? I love everything.

The 6th installment of the Friends Forever series has finally been announced! Head on down below the break for some Trixie and Rainbow Dash shenanigans!

Thanks to Thomas, Masem, 621Chopsuey, and everyone else for the heads up!

It popped up over a week ago on ABC News, and since then, pretty much every media organization out there has done a quick story on it.  Grayson was asked to no longer bring his Rainbow Dash backpack to school, and now the head honchos over at the campus are reworking their request and welcoming it with open arms.  Instead of focusing on fixing the issue via removing the Dashie, they are looking into solving the bullying problem at the root.

As pointed by The Blaze:

Rhodes said the district has “discussed a number of options to consider in moving forward for Grayson,” all of which include “a safety transition plan and an allowance for Grayson to bring the bookbag to school.”

I guess making national headlines sends things into overdrive. 

So now that that is over with, how about we convince all these news organizations to build a giant statue of Luna on the moon? Something we can see with a telescope near the polls.  Get on it citizens of Equestria Daily.
