Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 11, 2016

Of course, Eugene’s been dead since 1924

It’s probably on the Number 2 Best Seller list.

Murmuring sweet nothings about arachnologists.Yep. It’s Frog Applause.

What am I supposed to feed those little jumping spiders that came out of the woodwork during the recent warm spell? Should I just buy a couple of bananas and allow the fruit flies to hatch?It seems to have gone dormant again with the current below zero temperatures, but I want to be a good host if it wakes up again.

There’s a World Spider Catalog? Now I know what to get my mother-in-law for Christmas! Hope they take American Express.

… or third. :-)

Those who suffer from Arachnophobia keeps a secret list.

I don’t know. I try to get the finer points from Marmaduke, but all I get is a slobbery, aggressing Great Dane, trying to be alpha.

When a compilation of FA comes out in book form, will it be number two in sales among “lame humor” books?

Who does the ranking of comic strips by educational content? How did Marmaduke win?!

Has either of those scholars correctly classified Spider-Man?

I remain an eager student of our Teacher of Lameness….

I learn more from Frog Applause than I ever could watching Fox News.

From the web site: “Although only about 500 species of these small spiders had been described when the project began, that number is now over 1,000 …” And the number will keep growing until the government money runs out.
