Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 20, 2012

Another inspiring message from Frog Applause! I’m going to print this out and hand out copies at the airport.

I see a black bird, so she’s not totally alone…

Speaking as a Japanese monster fan, I’d like to chime in regarding Richard Boone. The quote from him is very apt, as he lived out that persona in a 1977 Japanese monster movie entitled, “The Last Dinosaur.”

Even in the few short minutes of the film’s trailer, you can tell Mr. Boone was either reading his lines drunk, or had been drinking for so many years that he might as well have been schnockered:

I’m not criticizing, mind you. “The Last Dinosaur” is 70s camp at its best, and without Boone, it wouldn’t be the cult classic that it is.

Regarding Suction Cup Man…

That’s a Mattel toy known as “Suckerman.” I wish I could find the commercial on YouTube, as the Suckerman jingle is kinda funny. If I remember correctly, the song consisted of just one word: “Suuuuckerman!”

Its amazing that even in a print advertisement for Van Heusen shirts, Charlton Heston still managed to over act. What a ham!

The Prophet of Doom in our ’toon has admirable penmanship, however questionable his premise.I was a fan of Have Gun Will Travel then and still enjoy it in reruns now. Paladin was so cool!

you have been misinformed, el dogsniffo.You can get a ’67 ’Cuda in good condition for 11K.google it, you can find one , in need of a bit of restoration for 3K

We are all of that certain age at one point in our lives or other.

Interesting background work in the FA today, Ms. T! Quite fascinating.

Re: Blog; Charlton Heston Van Heusen ad…Looks to me like you won’t get that glass of wine/liqueur from him ’til you pry it from his cold, dead fingers…

That she is alone is only his edited opinion. Not the truth.

Good afternoon Frog Applausers. Good strip today Teresa. Very existentialist. I am glad I am very relational so I don’t feel quite as fragmented as these lovely but lonely people. But I’ve been there, and truly, we ARE unique and therefore alone in our existence, since no one else can share our skin from the inside.

I shall return. It is too nice out to stay indoors.

Yah, HGWT was great but Boone could really play baddies too. He was chilling in Night of the Following Day.

…or abdication?

I dream, therefore I exist? That would be a nightmere dream.
