Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for December 06, 2016

Do not fail to type us.

“I’ve heard the bell and I must go by carriage return.”

Bidding you a font farewell.

She was Elite and he was Pica. Their love could never be, but they did base the movie Ladyhawk on their adventures.

Some hipster at Starbucks is wondering where the autocorrect feature is located..

Embracing her that way led to an Underwood.

Not the crabby type, she cheerfully rebuffed his advances with a lightly ringing return. He studied her carriage as she retreated, his ribbon suddenly gone dry.

Unbelievably hilarious and witty comments today. I’ve seen pages where some creators claim that they have the best people as their readers and commenters. It’s hard to say who has the very best, but “frog applause” is high on that list. I should try getting here earlier so I’ll have a chance to come up with something….……………………………………………………………………….Never trust a man who sells typewriters. I just had a vision of Vlad trashing Typewriter Headquarters.

I wrote them about a typewriter, but my hand is so abominable, hence the need of their mechanical scribe, that they could not decode the missive. On the morrow, I shall go forth to purchase sheets for the practice of cursive script. Within a few months, I shall endeavor once again to write them.
