Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for November 18, 2010

And I was an ugly duckling, too.

And “O mio bambino caro” on the blog is pure beauty. though I am partial to Charlotte Church’s singing.

Cruel.

Hey! It does not! You’re a meanie!

Among recent performers in Gianni Schicchi, Angela Gheorghiu sings my preferred O mio babbino caro.

Here ya go Rad, I can’t get no respect either I was so ugly as a kid, I asked my father why he never took me to the Zoo. He said, “if they want you, they’ll come and get you”

According to mine, I was considerate and emerged about noon instead of the middle of the night.

Everyone is wrinkled up at birth.

@ Sisyphos very nice. there are so many good and excellent renditions on YouTube that is hard to choose. We can find many favorites. @Baslim there was something out of synch with Jackie Evancho segment. I checked for other clips and they all looked unreal, maybe it was the timbre in her voice. It seems to come from an older, more experienced singer. I could be wrong as I never like any talent shows, especially what we have now.

yeah, and you’re still ugly

I’ve tried to distract people from my looks by having an abrasive personality.

Is that giant white hand trying to touch those pokies,or trying to hide them?

Man, that’s the worst bookcase I’ve ever seen. It’s a cute concept, but I suspect anyone who would actually buy that bookcase is also the type who would go to a used bookstore and buy filler books just for the appearance of having a library (but not actually read anything, mind you).

I was ugly too but had special surgery and switched the back of the head to the front, and changed mt name ….when women I know pass me in the street they say; “Hi Harry”.

Are those cut outs on the bra? Please cover up with two hands.

I too laughed at the bookshelves. I LOVE art but not when it takes something useful and makes it a white elephant.

The Puffer School picture is great because my dad had this recipe for oven-fried potatoes that he called Puffer school potatoes that he had as a kid at that school.

I also bleeped my bleep with a bleep while bleeping a bleep when I saw that Peek-a-boo posting. You’ve got great taste in camera angles.

i look very much as i did when a toddler only pictures i’ve seen have me eating donuts diagnosed as diabetic in college evil sweet donuts
