Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 29, 2012

And you’re proud of this because?

My first impulse is to kick you square in the derriere.

Was it Bella Swan? You go, girl!

Liar. You’re no swan killer. Some people will say anything to get attention.

That’s Eisenhower, working on his next heart attack as he eats the hot dog. After eight years with Tricky Dicky at his side, who can blame him?

Bear hands, are you pigeon-toed also?

Well, good for you! Why?Did it belong to Lord Henry Brinthrope?

Get angry, get real angry.

Act-Counter Act-Gonna have a heart attack.

What is better than bubble wrap?

No wonder, Teresa. Those big birds are dangerous!

Swan took a dive.

Is this her swan song?

…and all I got were these glasses.

in that case, i think i will keep my swan in my pants.

(i like to read…)

Hey, she’s pretty hot too.

well, then, it seems appropriate to hear your swan song

She looks like she was born to do the horizontal mambo.

And Zeus was his name-o !!!

Thanks for posting the work of Otto Dix. He has experienced far too few references over the years.

She means she limpied a schwanze with her bar hands…

And then Bjork wore it to the Grammys.

Well, I’ve only been practicing law in Arkansas for 35 years (come August), so take this with a grain of salt: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS DEBTOR’S PRISON IN THIS OR ANY OTHER STATE. (There is such a thing as the 5th and 14th Amendments, even in Arkansas).

I suspect what is going on here is a case of civil contempt.

Now, what CAN happen, is a debt collector can turn a bill over to a collection mill (a/k/a law firm); the law firm files suit and obtains a judgment; the law firm sends post-judgment discovery requests to the judgment debtor (“JD”); JD ignores them; the law firm files a motion to compel JD to answer the discovery and disclose bank accounts and other assets; JD ignores the motion; the law firm gets a contempt order directing JD to appear in court and show cause why JD should not be held in contempt of the court’s order to disclose assets; JD fails to appear; the court issues an arrest warrant for JD, but NOT for failing to pay the debt, but for ignoring the court’s orders.

@johnnydiego, @picto, @3hourtour, and others:you guys crack me up. I’m sitting here literally laughing out loud and have laugh tears on my cheeks.

And when the swans down, you made a cake – right?!? . . . ☻

If I were a swan, and you were going to kill me, This Is The Way I’d Want To Go.

Otto Dix and a few of his contemporaries who contributed to the satirical magazine, SIMPLICISSIMUS, skewed and ridiculed German society and culture of the first half of the 20th century. Artists like Eduard Thony, Heinrich Kley, George Grosz and Karl Arnold.

I tried feeding those turtles. It didn’t work. Do I have to pay a quarter to buy turtle food?

Some background on the Prague Orloj, the amazing astronomical clock on Frog Blog today.

You killed a swan just because it had your hands bare?

@A Scented FlowerIt tasted a lot like bar-b-qued rattlesnake, which is like bar-b-qued alligator, which is a lot like bar-b-qued chicken. Any questions? Yes, I have had all 3 but no dog. YET! Just waiting for the right bit-bull.

Damned swan was probably asking for it. Give ’em a piece of bread and they try to get your car keys.

Re: If I Were A Swan

“Sensational Headline Drama” would be a good name for a girl band. Marg could play lead guitar and sing back up vocals, rabbit rose could play bass, shytimes2 could play drums with a cigarillo hanging out of the corner of her mouth, and Tee could front it and play the … xylaphone, accordiian and harmonica. Mom (Mother Thalweg) could be the manager/chaperone. nighthawks and I can take turns driving the bus and procuring various chemical substances.

Did you then eat it?

character traitsboy becomes a cartoonist

@Frog Applause: Yeah, well, I wore gloves. But who’s bragging?

I have heard of the body farm before, but after seeing the two videos I am going to change my will. I specified cremation because I don’t think a full body burial makes sense today with our population growth, but donating my body for forensic purposes makes a lot of scientific sense.
