"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)

Why does the sun shine?
Why does the wind blow?
Why are we hurled into a pitiless and shalllow existence and made self aware so we know exactly how puny and insignificant we really are compared to the vastness of the Universe?
Why do I read Frog Applause every day?
Ah, that’s an easy one.
Frog Applause provides you with the koans that 4 out of 3 Swamis agree are essential to achieving oneness with all that is.
So ask your Swami about Frog Applause TODAY!

It wasn’t my fault. That bird came out of nowhere and attacked my car.

B. Hinds: Owls have excellent eyesight. Did this owl accident happen in the daytime or at night? Did the owl die? Was your father hurt? One hears about deer-meets-car accidents, but this is the first I’ve heard about an owl hitting a car. I saw that YouTube video link. An Opel GT is a small car. Maybe the owl thought your father’s car was PREY!

lrope: My Pagani Zonda C12 F was hit by a Bird of Paradise. Would you like to see it? (My car, not the dead bird).

We all know what a DEER CROSSING sign looks like… I wonder what an owl sign would look like.

Bill Hinds: Great story. Did your father ever let you borrow the keys for that sweet ride?

It was very early in the morning. My parents lived outside of the city. It was on a long stretch of empty highway. The owl didn’t survive. I used to drive that car a lot. It was a HOOT!
…er…I mean…it was a lot of fun.

Enough about me.
There’s a dead crow/raven/grackle that needs our attention.

In Old English, the “wh” combination was spelled “hw”.
