"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)

Oh come on! You can come up with a better threat than THAT!

As long as you leave my anatomically correct Dick Tracy alone I’m ok.

Just read your posts, Runar! Nice to hear from you again.
No need to catch up. Just jump in. We miss the humor and the fascinating facts.

ejcapulet is right. This IS a lame threat. What’s a better (funnier) seven-words-or-less threat that involves Tank’s booblehead?

Correction: bobblehead.
Then again, I rather like the sound of booblehead.

Mr. Smartypants must have been at that Lowell (MA) Spinners game several years ago for Tank McNamara Bobblehead Doll night. They gave away hundreds of the nodding MiniTanks. And guess who threw out the first pitch? It was right down the middle, maybe a little high, from atop the mound, not in front of it like some wusses do.

How about: “… or your Tank McNamara bobblehead gets that ‘Barbie’ operation.”

Booblehead, frogapplause! Your Freudian slip is showing.

No! Not my Tank McNamara bobblehead with the authentic “Norts Spews” sound chip!

DigFrog: Brilliant! A+. The teacher is giving you her apple for that one.
Dypak: Don’t ever call yourself boring again. You’re a beloved member of the FA family. I love your “norts spews”’ comment as well as your comment on Cleats today. Don’t go missing like runar did… or I’ll be forced to track you down too!

I’ve got nobody to track me down. It’s bad when your an outcast to the fringe.

I agree, Runar. Why worry about catching up? Just jump on in, the water’s fine!

Bill Hinds: Thanks for not wussing out and for living to tell about it. Being stoned to death by hundreds of bobbleheads wouldn’t be a pleasant way to go. Is that the first time you’ve thrown in the first pitch?

Thanks for the Mr. Smartypants, Teresa! I don’t think I like the ‘Barbie operation’ suggestion - it’s too similar to yesterday’s comic. How about ‘…or we’ll boil your McNamara bobblehead in cod liver oil’?

Wow! You’ve made my day! Now I know all those years reading Tank McNamara from the Detroit Free Press weren’t wasted. It’s nice to have a place to call home.
