Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for October 21, 2022

Lots of Mysterons in Skybase with Captain Scarlet.

The battologists don’t have a fighting chance of making a concise statement.

And I never had a clue….

…but mean Mr. Mustard lives in a shop…

…aah, a Halloween special Frog Applause…

…meanwhile, in the hallowed halls of justice…

…the New Hawkman gets punked in the new Black Adam movie…

…I don’t care how powerful the Rock(yawn) is supposed to be…

…Hawkman should be able to stand toe to toe with him…

…maybe I’ve had one too many raised eyebrows…

…maybe I’ve seen Rambo too much …

…but I am judging this movie strictly by its terrible trailer…

…perhaps Homelander does smug just a tad worse than the Black Adam…

…but I see no drama in the movie…

…no true battologist…

…no catsup on a dog:EVER!..

…unless that is what I want on mine…

I should stick w/leaf on branch and catch a 22 rifle bullet. Bullseye left the bldg.

Sounds like a pleasant enough afternoon, so long as one avoids the library, where the terminals are all in use by people making $50K per month, according to their online personas.

Excuse me…do you happen to have any Poupon?

Mrs. Peacock spends all her time in the library because she’s become obsessed with Mango Worms Diaries! True stories of passionate love affairs of men and women, inserting and worming their ways into someone’s life!

indubitably

I don’t play games.

Mrs. Peacock must have been giving a presentation on lidocaine and epinephrine ….

( orange you glad )

[Shakes head] tsk What a state of affairs, when the battologists outnumber the worms. And they’re mango worms, at that! We all know how efficiently they reproduce.

Better check the servants’ quarters; I hear there’s quite a buildup of British Prime Ministers there.

Shouldn’t that be vespertiliologists?

Of course there are. Battologists are notorious for avoiding libraries, what with the hush hush policy and all.

Question. Are the worms of the gummy mango variety, or are we talking wrigglers that inhabit the flesh of the mango fruit? Either way, I hear Mrs. Peacock has a way with worms; some even say it’s a fetish.

what we have here is an amateur statstician

As a veteran Clue player, I may iterate (or battologize) that Colonel Mustard is far more interesting a conversationalist, especially at the brandy-and-cigars in the conservatory stage of the evening, than Mrs. Peacock (a real blue-blood) , with the ladies in the worm-ridden library of the old manse. That place always was too damp, built at the extremity of the Froglandian Swamplands….

What about Colonel Catsup?
