Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for March 28, 2015

Got any “flesh”?

That too.http://mentalfloss.com/article/22405/5-times-crayola-fired-their-crayons

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Crayons.

Ah, the lovely metallic Bluetonium…

Got any Pigmented Cellulose #10?

Magenta, I loved magenta, sigh

Colour me happy.

Crayons.They are not edible.They do not put the pig in pigments.This is why colored pencils are better.Your dog will not eat your pencils.Your yard will not have pigmented droppings.You will come to see this as an advantage.

Van Dyke Brown turns to:

Yellow submarine

And if the police are coming, hide all the colors under a covering of black, to be scratched off later. The Maltese Crayons – the stuff dreams are made of.

Me, too. I loved magenta! Magenta and periwinkle. (Sounds like a good porn name; Magenta Periwinkle.) (Well, either that or some unpleasant postpartum condition.)

You know who else loved Magenta? Riff Raff. He really loved Magenta.

email strip of the day is “Boil the Maple Sap”.Most of the crayons in my bootleg Canadian crayon set are maple leaf.Maple leaf spring greenMaple leaf summer greenMaple leaf redMaple leaf orangeMaple leaf yellowMaple leaf brownMaple leaf gall redMaple leaf gall whiteMaple leaf gall orangeMaple leaf gall blackMaple leaf gall grayMaple leaf gall yellowAnd all the blues are sky colorMorning sky blueEvening sky blueMid-day sky blueMidnight sky blueI’m actually quite thankful that I only got the sixteen crayon set.

But, baby you can drive my card.

Smooth-talking con man, pushing black market foreign crayons out of the trunk of his car? Seriously? Am I supposed to trust this guy? He looks like an undercover cop running a color-entrapment sting operation. Color me skeptical. The only good contraband out of Canada was hooch, back in the bootlegging era….

I love this song from “The Magic Crayon.” Come and Get It ( The video I would have preferred to link to had scenes from the movie, but there was a bit of “peach” showing, so I daren’t.)

How about “Tickle Me Pink” … got any of those? … or that other special pink color … you know the one I mean!!!

I woke up late, disoriented and hungover and STILL I’m the first to notice …. >>> BLUETONIUM? <<< (real thing or happy coincidence?)

Box of Craons

Oops…Crayons…

waxing poetic… or at least waxing hucksterish

More years than I care to remember, I had an art class project where you would Crayon an entire sheet of cardboard of whatever size, covering certain areas, leaving others un-crayoned. Then with a fine tool, scrape away “details”, then finally lay on a wash of India ink to achieve a colored and stark black result.I don’t know of any examples I could link to to illustrate the idea.

Won’t you come Home weeksfive ,won’t you come Home?(It was all a misunderstanding, really.)

HappyI agree, I loved that video. Now I’m HAPPY too!

Atop the walls the soldiers were boiling bluetonium to dump on the invaders when they set their ladders against the walls. The siege was long and difficult, but the Crayon People remained sovereign and drove off the invaders, whose withdrawal was long overdue.

Stumbled across that looking for something else entirely.

You probably stole it from your own head.There is a lot of that going around.

I gave up GoComics after Teresa -Is there a reason for me to return? Yes or no is good enough.I see a lot of the same ol lame names, like that smurf painedsmile, Sisyphos, Baslim, weeksfive, dogsniff, etc. That’s a good sign.

Wax Bunny

…oops…I guess thats a waxed bunny…

You stole that post.Word for word, verbatim.It was just sitting there in your head.And you stole it.This happens more than you would think.

…is broke…
