Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for March 17, 2012

Rev it up baby! I like the original wording better, BTW.

How do they recognize a cartoonist when they see one? Is it the generally disheveled appearance? The unmistakable gleam of insanity in their eyes?

Is that driver a secret ally of the GoComics overlords, altering his original instructions so as to go at a cartoonist instead? INTOLERABLE!

GeneralGiap, do you know about the American Protective League? If you don’t, it’s an aspect of WW I that will make your hair stand on end. There’s a book about it on archive.org, “The Web” by Emerson Hough. Hough was disturbingly pleased by its actions.

The GoComics overlords tamper with the comics??

re the blog:

Ed Allison at Unstrange Phenomena is a Sister Rosetta Tharpe Fan too.http://www.gocomics.com/unstrange-phenomena/2012/03/16

Hitting a Gocomics overlord is worth 100 points, cartoonists…..not so much.

She’s a pig.

Reminds me of that scene in Pulp Fiction.

He’s happy because she is still wearing the pearl necklace he gave her earlier.

Dodge the car before you get Rammed. You can’t a-Ford to get injured.

i park in a driveway…

Cartoonists don’t use crosswalks do they. I thought they liked to venture outside the lines.

Little Eva’s coloring book seems sexually suggestive.

…of course, most everything does to me.

nice use of a captcha.

Dear Nice(?) Teresa

Violence promoted on Frog Applause? Well, I’ll swan to goodness. I never thought I’d live to see the day.

Tsk tsk, Teresa; tsk tsk.

Sincerely,

Rotifer’s (sad and disappointed) Mother

Holy moly! Even though I knew it had to be Ed Sullivan, that photo of Ed looks so much like my dad did, I read the caption to be sure. People always said he looked like Ed Sullivan but I never saw as much resemblance as in that picture.If that’s an Irish look, dad came by it honestly. His father married the granddaughter of a well to do Irish farmer (there’s a road named after him on the west edge of West Lafayette) and it was sort of a scandal in her family that she didn’t marry an Irishman,Now if only I had a scanned in photo of dad at an appropriate age, I could post it but no such luck.

She’s a cutie.
