Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for August 30, 2015

“Bobbed-tailed Nag(s)” are historically derided in any case.

Did somebody bet on the Bay?

Put it behind you.Or get a weave.

All the other creators used to laugh and call him names…

When the young girl gets through weaving ribbons and beads in his mane, no one will even notice his bobbed tail.

Oh, those nattering neigh-bobs of negativity. How many comedians would do anything for a good horse laugh!

Bad bobbing is a problem that the nation needs to address. It can’t be just hidden behind the tool-shed forever! Victims of bad bobbing must come forward bravely and name their bad bobbers, so that this national disgrace can be ended by effective gummymint intervention. To that end, I am establishing the FBBI, the Federal Bureau of Bobbing Investigations, which will report directly to the Secretary, and the Secretary to me! There is new hope for the badly bobbed among us, and they no longer need hide in shame!Thank you.

Bob, weave, stick, jab, feint… Uppercut!

This is what he’s hiding:

Do Da, Do Da, All the Do Da Day!!!

Love the art today, Teresa.

I bobbed my tail a couple of decades back to get a job.I’ve grown it back.Middle aged gray headed guys with ponytails is a common sight around here.

Wow, that’s a Wale of a tail!

This hits way too close to home for me. Metaphorically.

All I can say is that, if you’re not Jewish, don’t risk getting a “badly bobbed tail.” You don’t want to spend your wedding night “hiding behind the barn.” My Jewish friends had no choice, but my parents did, and it was a bad one. I guess I’ve already said too much.

Hold you bobbed tail high and strut your stuff darlin. All the girls dig the cropped look.
