Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 29, 2024

Makes sense in Machala, as well.

Actually, Boise makes no sense whatsoever.

Funny, if nonsensical…

The recently discovered Prickle-back Squid squad, denizens of the deep, mated discreetly in near-total darkness … until recently, when National Geographic so rudely photographed their private fertility rituals. The magazine issue with the shocking scenes was banned in Boise!

boise makes sense in boise ;+)

Moral of the story: Chiggers can’t be boozers.

IdahoHoHo …!

Spawning in the Salmon-Challis National Forest. How the roe did we get here?!

Thought I was looking at a rat king.

Spud — The beer that made Boise famous. – SNL

Well, there’s your problem right there. Stop making sense.

“Better to be blue in Boise than miserable in Moscow”, she decided.

Are the larval forms of the things that populate the detail areas of Bosch paintings?

“Who da ho?” “I da ho!”

From its early days, Boise grew willy-nilly, its streets going every which way (not as bad as Boston, though). This creative and thoroughly convincing amalgam of line and scale is an uncanny reproduction of a map of a city without a plan.

After a close examination of the facts, and the ambient environment surrounding them, it seems rather obvious to me, that you are living in your own private Idaho.

#603 in the POSTCARDS FROM THE FRONT Series:

Dear Roseanna,

Spud bugs…

browned in Boise rosé,

dumped on butcher paper,

on a fanned-out platter

like shrimp freshly plumped-up,

sizzingly primped and winkingly pimped,

plus a scoop of sour-mash whey,

and my own side of noisy NO-WAY!

Butt thuds on porcelana!

Love & hugs,

- Bud

CIDU may turn out to be a guide to other interesting strips. Some of the stuff they complain about is good and some is just normal. I noticed they used the name Dowlatshahi so I’m guessing that is an old complaint.

Bean-bag squid and voles, with “those eyes”.

…we used to hunt salmon on the river until the forked tongues came…

…they talked of feeding us with poison…

…and claiming that we owned as much of the land as the coyote did…

…this much was true…

…but in their greed and blindness…

…did not mean it that way…

…but when these hardships shot arrows at them…

they refused even to wear a mask…

…and they turned our green fields blue…

…and said life is good here…
