Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for March 11, 2015

Ah, reverse psychology; that’ll keep those Nancy & Sluggo heads away from our, sweet creamy center!

But dull, dead beat and depressed is me on a good day. I am sorry, however, about my foul breath.

What’s wrong with fur on my tongue?

Sorry, the only other strip I read was Dick Tracy, and, quite frankly, when it stopped sucking, I lost interest.

I sleep just fine, but not like a “top”.Not like a “bottom” either.Tongue fur forever!

A little amphibious acclamation can lick anything.

nothin’ wrong with tongues

It is difficult to find tongue these days, outside of a delicatessen. You can special order it from your local supermarket, though.Preparation is somewhat difficult. It involves boiling the entire thing and removing the outer coat, leaving only the meaty interior portion for delectable consumption.A real deli may have tongue sandwiches, but a deli section in a supermarket? Not so much.

It Is always great to have my back….

“Sleep like a top”?

I’ve actually heard “sleep like a top” before, but never used it. I’m more of a “sleep like a log” man..The expression ‘sleep like a top’ is quite old and is recorded from at least 1693, when it appeared in William Congreve’s The Old Batchelour:

“Should he seem to rouse, ’tis but well lashing him, and he will sleep like a Top.”

Incidentally, ‘sleep like a log’ apparently derives from the immobility of logs, like tops, although some have suggested it to derive from the sound of sawing being like the sound of snoring.

Home treatment may be all that is needed for a black or coated tongue.-—————————————————————-1. Brush your tongue daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and toothpaste or a solution of 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 2 parts water.2. Scrape the tongue with an upside-down teaspoon to remove the “furry” coating on the tongue.3. Do not use tobacco products.4. Do not read Frog Applause.Bismuth products, such as Pepto-Bismol, can turn your tongue black. The black appearance will go away after you stop taking the medicine.

Cheap. Effective. Use Daily to avoid the feeling that all the creatures of the forest have used your mouth as a latrine during the night.

Is your tongue coating furry or hairy? Is the furred/hairy coating green? That is VERY rare.

Somethimes, thounges can get you in throuble:

Tongue tacothes, wait……

Tongue tastes like lean roast beef.

Is this the same cat that used the toilet the other day on Frog Applause Pet Day? Boots is a nice cat. I just wish the woman in the video hadn’t made him beg before she finally turned on the water. That was kind of mean.

I agree completely on whatever it was that you were trying to say.

“Whatever” is a thought-terminating cliché. :(
