Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for June 16, 2012

I’ve always attributed it to camping and burned marshmallow cravings, but I am no expert.

Was F A late posting today? BTW is Dazz in Chicago? Have not seen her lately.

Peer reviewed of course.

Re Blog:My eyesight is getting worse. I thought is said Bum Boy which would give a whole new meaning to visiting their cock tail lounge

Pastafarian paraphilia?

I spent the night in Dingle, County Kerry back in 1999. Very nice place with a famous bar. It’s also known for its dolphin. That was where I came up with my favorite idea: marry an Irish woman (with business smarts) and open up a bed & breakfast with a pub on one side and a bookstore on the other. And, after my exposure to FA, I would have to add a small art gallery with the bookstore. I also saw my favorite painting—“Himself, Herself” at an art museum in County Cork. Unfortunately, I can’t find a print.

Please don’t dente my noodle.

Wow, that Maeterlinck photo is way creepy. And I’m with Linguist, that looks as much like an M as it does an N. of course, maybe it’s just a variation on the world famous Bum Boat where Dr. Jeff and Mary Worth eat little orange gelatinous chunks when they go out to dinner.

We have to add al dente noodle mania to the list of psychological disorders. It’s new to me, but I’m no expert. After a brief review of the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (“DSM-IV”), I don’t see it. Call the editors!

Lorena Bobbit? It’s been a while since I heard that name. She was the one who testified that she didn’t really like having sex with John and so they only did it thirteen times a day… Some people just belong together… like that woman who wrote to Dear Abby complaining that her husband never cut his toenails and they tore up her panty hose when they were in bed together…

Let me dust off my brain and go looking for the Quino comic collections… must be in the back bedroom somewhere…

That Bugatti is beautiful.

remember doll hospitals. There was one in Chicago, where my Mother took a favorite doll of mine that needed a new wig. The doll remained de-wigged, because my Mother felt the prices charged were much too high.

Your mania is unbecoming a late posting, and al dente is vastly overrated by Food Snobs.

@jeffc42This site will give you a little info on the painter, Michael Power O’Malley (1870-1946), and the Crawford Art Gallery in Cork. I believe prints may be available.BTW I worked on a movie in Dingle Bay back in the late ‘60s called Ryan’s Daughter. Although my mother and all her people came from or still live in the North of Ireland, me da’s family all originated in Dingle Bay. I’ve a funny story about working there and meeting the erstwhile relatives ( although it wasn’t funny at the time!)Slan

I’m afraid my meatballs and spaghetti caught fire; shall we order out for pizza?

I will have Rocky Mountain oysters with penne in a tomato, red wine reduction sauce with morel mushrooms.

Call me a bun or bootie boy.
