Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for June 25, 2012

The creatures seem to agree with her.

Where did the Frog Blog chicken go??

It’s all good.

Huzzah! another new screen saver

Nothing like candy-cane philosophy from a 19th century English (though born in India) rapscallion and novelist. Beware, Little Girl!

FB—Agreed:BRING BACK THE CHICKEN!

The chicken never disappeared from my screen. It’s been there since 6:30 am BST.

Maybe it’s a browser issue.

Re dress code: gotta be either no. 2 or 4. If pushed it’s no. 2.

I had no idea that The Old Wolf bore such a marvelous resemblance to Bela Lugosi!

(Okay, that’s Lugosi in his role as the Sayer of the Law from “The Island of Lost Souls.” He’s about halfway through the make-up process in thos pictures, before they gave him facial hair that made him look like a magnet covered in iron filings.)

(“What is the Law? Not to go about on all fours! Not to eat meat! Not to spill blood! Are we not men?”)

Here’s a clip from the end:

“Jennifer, you’d better not be drawing on the walls in there again!”

I’ll take blue on blue f(#3) for $100, Alex, but would much prefer a navy blue bow tie.

@blog: anytime you use “unauthorized gocomics ANYTHING” you get trouble. Chicken gone? Ha. Wait for it.

Where does sex fit in that list?

I’ve got the chicken, and heard Teresa proclaiming that she’s in a bad mood.By coincidence, Alice from Cul deSac is also in a bad mood, while RT’s blog link is missing .. things are starting to collapse ..Could those Mayans be right after all and this is the beginning of the end of civilization ..??I’d better start building a shelter and hoard up on comics.

Re Blog: DON’T TRY THIS AT HOMEYoung Brian dreamed of being a chemist, so he opened a meth lab.

I love you Frog applause and Frank Zappa too

As Aldous Huxley said, next to complete slilence, that which comes closest to expressing the inexpressible is music. From one big FZ fan to another.

And I don’t know, Teresa, those canary pants and no socks – that’s a tough look to beat. That outfit gets my vote, but just barely over the outfit featuring the bow tie clipped to the pale pink vest.

I vote for the first outfit on the dress code question. And I had no idea that Charley Weaver’s family was the Arquettes.

Chickenless ones up there, I had to reload the page to get that graphic and the Frog Applause header graphic to load. The link to the blog was there in a little text rectangle telling me the image should have been there. Normally, right clicking on that and picking reload image would work, but outside of that box, it wouldn’t acknowledge it was supposed to be an image. A relaod fixed it as I said. Might be related to the agonizing slowness of some parts of GoComics loading this morning.

DRESS CODECan we mix and match? The pants, tie, boutineer and glasses on the first guy are outstanding. The jacket looks a little warm for summer though. I suggest the vest from the 4th guy. The fabric from his pants would be great for the shirt, but barring that, the pattern on the shirt of guy under him is close to the GC logo. So the shirt should be like that only with the logo for the pattern. The outfit should also include some accoutrements from the 2nd guy. Wrist wear, specifically. And inspired by his fan, we should carry a ping pong paddle.

Vote for guy number 2

For the lameness of it, I’m going with #3, although I have tried the #1 look in my younger days. Damn, I was cool!BTW, I couldn’t think of Peter Marshall’s name , but I thougfht he was a Dick.

Very tight, bright yellow pants for the win!

Oh, a change of underwear at least twice a week.

RE: DRESS CODE FOR FROG BLOG READERSIf I were twenty years younger, I’d opt for the very tight, bright yellow pants and short blue blazer, but mis-matched madras never goes out of style.

both of my grandfathers were successful moonshiners. neither one got caught.

I have the chicken and if you want it back…..

I guess others had problems getting gocomics this morning. Glad it wasn’t just me.

As for the dress code, I can’t believe these are actual people walking around in public – kind of like the people of Wal-mart – the Walmartians.

Finally!!! Sense!!

Gocomics should be proud, doing their part in covering up immoral indecency. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>But Gweedo, at least the pink pasties are swingers, although the Gocomics ones have a little more behind them..

And candy is dandy,but sex won’t rot your teeth.

RE: Blog/ Murmurations- The word sounded interesting and the birds made pretty patterns; the girl in the boat wasn’t hard to look at either. You took it over the top by including the other clips, proving once again FB is much more than meets the eye.

@Number 6- Awkward, to say the least. I hope that’s not up the down escalator.

Forgot to vote on the uniform. I was all set to go number 1 before I noticed the little greenish ankle hankie on his right leg, Ruins the look, so I guess it’s #2.

re dress code…i vote for pasties for the female readers…

Re sausage with yorkshire pudding: the genuine “toad in tne hole” is the second one. The others look like pub meal concoctions.
