    I understand where you’re coming from, and I sympathize. But, just remember, YOU made YOUR choices; so suck it up and deal!

    That settles it, I’m going to start jaywalking today. Let the good times roll!!! First, though, I need to write my epitaph.

    Here lies Ray C. Age 102 The good die young.

    (I plan to jaywalk only on neighborhood streets. I may be crazy, but I’m not stupid.)

    There is something phenomenally wrong abut that grapefruit crate label from the 1920;s. But of course that was an age of innocence.

    what’s so fundamentally wrong with imploring potential purchasers to “eat me” ???

    Isn’t it time the Blog featured Cybill Shepherd? I’m not complaining about the other beautiful women, but it seems that Cybill should be right up there with the best.

    Love your work. I don’t always get it, maybe a bit too edgy for an old fogey like me but very cool. BTW: the blog is excellent as well.

    Unexpectedly profound (as opposed to the usual: profoundly unexpected–and hilarious).

    Time was, when I read the Frog Blog I’d be disappointed when I ran out of new things so now I only read it on Mondays so it goes on and on and I’m happier.

    I get hints here during the week of what I’m gonna see Monday which heightens the expectation.

    Report on The Blog, from Ray the Eater of Giant Orkas. (Oops, I meant “Eater of Giant Okras.”)

    Cybill Shepherd: That was very responsive! Teresa, you are the greatest. I feel the love!!

    I am a big fan of the Cowboy Junkies, but I have never heard that song before. Loved it. Thanks for posting, Teresa. I’m off to iTunes with my 99 cents.

    It’s been a good week.

    As long as we’re naming vintage beautiful women, I need to put it in a plug for one of my favs, Dawn Wells (Mary Ann from Gilligan’s Island). What male didn’t have a crush on her? Not only was she sweet and beautiful, but she would ALSO make you pie!

    Teresa: “The creepy guy offstage” was Willie Bryant, the MC at the old Apollo Theater when it hosted many of the great old Harlem jazz shows, such as “Basin Street Review”. He was also a musician and bandleader himself, in earlier years.

    P.S. Martha Davis and Spouse (as their act was billed) were featured in “Basin Street Review” (along with others such as Sarah Vaughan, Lionel Hampton, Nat “King” Cole, Cab Calloway, Count Basie - the list goes on and on) - could be where your video was taken.

    Just to be picky (I know Teresa demands accuracy): It’s Cybill Shepherd, not Shepard. Just as beautiful under either name, of course. ;-)

    I followed that Cowboy Junkies video to Lou Reed’s version (live in Paris), and on to’ Walk on the Wild Side’ by the same.

    FAT ALERT!

    Original text:

    “Details: Write a description for Frog Applause. Short is good, less than 75 words. Your description can be complimentary or vitriolic (“Frog Applause is a gross and often very vulgar, almost pornographic cartoon. Source.) If you include my name in your description, kindly use Teresa only (just like Elvis, Prince, Cher, Madonna, etc!)”

    …50 translations later we get:

    “Description: This frog is interesting. Beautiful photo and brief, frogs, small weight of at least 75, most of them pornographic. Enter the name of religion, tb) is (was) the best, Elvis Presley, Prince, Madonna and the Prime Minister.”

    Re: FLOG contest

    @ RayC - you lost me at Schrodinger @ margueritem - a truly inspired effort. My favorite so far (much better then my lame latin locution) @ st2 - we’re (im)patiently waiting @ 3hourtour - if a cheese eating surrender monkey (like Ryan) can do it, how come a tea sipping pinky pointing hummer like you can’t?

    C’mon people - to quote Vlad, “less the sideline, or face you fist mine.”

    Thank you, Rotifer. I like them all so far. Vlad is sad, so enter his contest already, will ya? Judy Parka, Sisyphos, Itchy Bacon, Sandboil, Ushindi, nighthawks-bare your souls like the rest of us already did. If anyone doesn’t want a hug from Vlad, I’ll step up and take it for you.
