Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for September 04, 2024

Where can I get this “out” you speak of? Is it on sale somewhere? Are patchouli incense sticks and “Muskrat Love” the going price for “out”?

You will have to take my patchouli out of my cold dead hands!

Can I play “Frog went a Courtin” instead of “Muskrat Love”?

I’ll take the sticks but I don’t want the Muskrat Love. Ew.

Fine, I’ll go and get some afternoon delight.

You’re mistaken me for somebody who cares.

You think you can drive me away? Huh? Do you? Your first mistake was thinking I was utterly sane.

To be fair though I prefer the sandalwood incense and always skip Muskrat Love…I can’t believe they put that song on a Greatest Hits album…

I enjoy the scents produced by sandalwood and strawberry incense, but the stick I’d most like to burn again would have to be a Thai stick.

…as the Captain I can say that I always had a crush on Tennille…

…maybe it was the haircut…

…or the long gams…

…or that she was a conglomerate of both Ginger & Mary Ann…

…Oh Mary Ann can limbo like no one can…

…oh Mary Ann can limbo so low…

…essential oils …

…are better than incense sticks…

…and with a little bit of ginger…

…can really spice up some of that muskrat love…

…or to get you a little beaver…

…Lucy Van PELT …

…of course wearing fur is out nowadays…

…you can have leather shoes…

…eat their meat…

…use their glands…

…but wear their fur?!?…

…I pity the fool…

Getting grid of anything that does not bring you joy.

Watching Outer Range on Amazon.

They were looking for Joy, but Joy was irretrievably in the past. But a death in the Royal family brought her back somehow. Who knew that a hole in some anonymous pasture could be so important!

Frog Applause™ imitates Life!

In 1976 I got semi-Yeated from a bar in Fayettenam, Arkansas where Willis Alan Ramsey was playing (Willis Alan Ramsey wrote Muskrat Love) because he said the noise my table making interfered with his artistry.

We got our cover charge back and I called him a prick. It was a good night.

I prefer “Muskrat Ramble”.

Old Edwardian Hippies. And then comfortable clothing made with natural fibers were outlawed by the fashion police.

I am out but be back tomorrow or maybe Friday. I hate typing on my phone!!!

Well! I’m certainly not going to leave my patchouli incense sticks behind for the hoi polloi. Humph!

I prefer sandalwood.

Recent chemical analysis of an ancient Roman perfume bottle found patchouli. Hippies didn’t “discover” much more than Columbus.

Long ago I bought an old split window VW van. It had orange shag carpet that smelled like it had been soaked in patchouli oil glued to the inside panels. I pulled it all out, cleaned as best I could and re-paneled. The smell went away after a year or so. After all these years still don’t like that scent.

Yeah, patchouli is an intense incense.

someone is having a bad da-a-a-y ~~

I remember patchouli and musk. I spent a lot of time in Berkeley in the ’60s and ’70s. They were everywhere.

Aw, man! You used to be cool!

What about “badger love”, or “terrapin love”. What about the axolotls? Huh? Huh?!

Grateful Dead or is it Great full Dead?

Graceful Dead.

Check Please, I am out of here.

No Soup for You!

Come for the Frog, stay for the lashings.
