"Frog Applause reminds one of learning to read, in the sense that each word in the captions seems 'surprising' and new. Teresa's writing takes one back to that fresh state of mind (typical of, but of course not limited to, childhood) in which the brain, free of preconceptions, doesn't 'fill in' any blind spots along the way but rather wholly embraces the present moment as it unfolds. Every sentence is literally an imagination-expanding adventure." — Craig Conley, author of One-Letter Words: A Dictionary (HarperCollins)

Like Kali, for instance. Don’t let her lick you, either.

Pele wouldn’t be so great, either.

You’re just jealous because Smurfette dumped you for me.

Bill Hinds - Pele is the goddess of fire in Hawaii

I’m pretty dumb about this stuff. Who are some other female deities?

You have the Greek deities, the Roman (most of which were stolen from the Greeks), The Norse, The Hindu. etc. We were trying to think of female deities that are dangerous in some way, like Kali, or Pele. A lot of female deities are more or less benign, such as Iris, the goddess of the rainbow, or Eos, the goddess of dawn. Diana, the goddess of the moon and of the hunt, could be dangerous if angered. She caught a hunter spying on her and her maids when they were bathing in a stream. She turned him into a stag, who was then ripped apart by his own dogs.

I understand Heidi Klum will be dressing up as Pele next Halloween. If she’s smart she’ll go as the soccer player.

Hey, Nowalottashiti, your stupid strip lacks punctuation and contains disturbing spaces inside four of the words. I hate it!

I saw a picture of her in her Kali costume the other day. That’s what brought Kali to mind last night. She won’t be able to go as pele, the soccer player, either. All the soccer moms will be on her case.

Give it up, HabBuck. Your trash-talk is lame. Read the comments on Dick Tracy for some lessons.

“Moses finally caught up with him. ‘I was wrong. God has revealed to me that there are no rules for worship. Say whatever and however your loving tells you to. Your sweet blasphemy is the truest devotion. Through you a whole world is freed. Loosen your tongue and don’t worry what comes out, It’s all the Light of the Spirit.’”

I think this is a “I don’t want to know” thing for me.

This is an ‘I want to know more’ thing for me.

I once licked a handmaiden of Freyja. She returned the favor.
