Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for October 10, 2011

Oh, I’m thinking of joining up with a plague.

It seems like the ability to vomit is a pretty important survival trait.

It has its ups and downs….

“I haven’t been able to snatch the pebble yet” he replied.

This looks like the sequel to a Kafka story. Hope he does better than Gregor did.

Re the Mother Lion vignette on the Blog: What a great story. Only Mom has the motivation to take the risk. I can believe that the cub will go right back and do it again, too.

My Siamese climbs onto our roof by climbing a tree and jumping down from a limb. She’s afraid to go back that way, so she howls (as Siamese will) until I go out, climb up on the patio table, and rescue her. As soon as I reach out my arms, she starts to purr (and Siamese can shake the walls with their purr). She does this every single day. My wife doesn’t understand why I put up with this, but Dawn and I do.

Unfortunately it is overrun with locusts.

A few people have told me that I have an AMAZING MIND. I thought they were being sarcastic, but now it’s confirmed!

I enjoyed your blog today Theresa. The Meow Pizzas and Fingerprint Heart were real works of art.

I gotta get me one of them wigs. I could do me some powerful pleadin’ if only I had a wig.

Grasshopper Bob walks into a bar…

At the risk of prolonging the agony of “Fluffy” I offer a similar tribute to a beloved pet by The Shaggs – My Pal Foot Foot(I truely am sorry for this.)

Re: Amazing MindsI had no problem reading that fro the get-go.Which would expalin why I was an utter flop as a proofreader.

Re: LionessLooked like a re-enactment of a cliff side rescue on Emergency! (S5,Ep12 – On Camera)

Re: FB The Bob Marley quote is from one of my favorite tunes Three Little Birds.

Marley may have lifted that from Mose Allison’s song “I don’t worry ‘bout a thing ’cause I know nothing’s gonna turn out right,” circa 1962 or so.

Anent the whale stamps: Japanese fishermen recorded their daily catch by making impressions on rice paper with the actual fish dipped in paint, Gyotaku Fish Prints

I had a booth next to a Japanese artist from Tennessee one year at a Holiday Fair and he’d made these prints from his catches in a local river.

Info thereon: Fish Impressions

I just love GoComics. The current one is actually appearing in the mailing, but when I click on it for comments, I get yesterday’s (and this is the third time it’s happened today).

Anyway, I don’t feel neglected. Sad, maybe, but not neglected.
