Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for May 19, 2021

Nibbled to death by waterfowl. Imagine the horror.

chopper is more accurate than fire.

Swan had something good to eat.

Stooges 4 or 3.?

you know that is true katina

Old Warning Label on products from China … the newer labels will include a smiling virus with protein spikes …!

Florescent Scorpions would be a good name for a band.

In your favorite search engine, look for a video called “why people eat birds.” With delightful music by Sam Fonteyn (‘Spooky Scherzo’) it illustrates why these creatures are actually agents of the devil.

Boy. Pretty good PSA today, Teresa.

Uhh, I choose “none of the above”! I love my fingers and hands too much for such utter masochism!

He used to wear a cygnet ring on one of those fingers.

…Curt was an ugly duckling that turned into a swan…

…but his hurt feelings left his ego in shatters…

…which exposed himself to many hurtful self responses…

…Curt knew the importance of her own two fingers to Clara…

… So he psychologically bit them off…

…whispering the gates of hades…

…and better tequila…

…Clara became the inspiration for the Black Swan…

…biting off more than she could chew…

…but she did have a happy ending…

…she learned that when it came to tobacco…

…to swallow never spit…

…it wasted a good chew…

…you would think that there was a moral to the story…

…but there isnt…

…I’m just winging it…

I need a pain med. Nurse.

Where is your pain at?

On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 meaning little or no pain. 10 meaning a high amount of pain.

We wish you comfort and joy.

Class, what have we learned today?

All weapons except Swan (Caustic, Fireball, Cleaver) attack the vicinity of the thumb metacarpal.

Caustic is weak and slow-acting.

Cleaver really needs sharpening.

How to prep finger pie.

This was his swan song to his PETA membership.

I wish I could read ancient Inca text.

Here comes a candle to light you to bed,

And here comes a chopper to chop off your head!

Chip chop chip chop the last man is dead

Thumbelina, Thumbelina tiny little thing

Thumbelina dance, Thumbelina sing

Thumbelina what’s the difference if you’re very small?

When your heart is full of love you’re nine feet tall

Though you’re no bigger than my thumb (than my thumb)

Than my thumb (than my thumb), than my thumb (than my thumb)

Sweet Thumbelina don’t be glum (don’t be glum)

Now now now, hee hee hee, come come come

Day 2. Ouch! Dammit….
