If you don’t mind slime on your food.

Don’t croak

I wouldn’t eat there. The place has unsanitary written all over it because of the frogs.

Frog legs are delicious!

If the frogs are still hungry, do you run and open the door?

And then, once a week, we can serve frog legs for lunch!

Failing to see any downside

And snakes for mice.

Hmm wonder how they’ll handle the locust….

Humanity’s record on importing one critter to control another critter is abysmal.

Oy

Flies. Frogs. Next I’m thinking ..boils.

And Bleeb’s gone again. :(

Customer: Do you have frog legs?

Waiter: Yes!

Customer: Then hop into the kitchen and bring me some spanakopita.

Keeps the place hopping.

…and just like that, we’re back to 2011 reruns, and back to entertainin’ ourselves again.

Oh well, I’ve heard it said that…

“a rerun cartoon is right twice a day.”

Hmmm, that may be a broken clock or sump’n… I’m not exactly sure!

Wonder how many of the kids have biology class after lunch?

The situation is so ludicrous, that it made me ROFL.

Unconventional, but whatever works…..

Gee – I wonder what they’re dissecting today in biology class?

Oh well, if it’s new to you, it isn’t a rerun

hits knees and folds hands* Thank you, dear Lord for not making me a child in Mr. McPherson’s universe. You know how frightened I am of frogs.

And when they croak, it’s off to the science lab.

Escapees from the biology lab?

I had a neighbor friend whose mom had mental issues, and their house was a mess including roaches everywhere. One day when I was in his house, I saw a toad hopping about. I said, “There’s a toad in your house!” His response was, “Yeah, it eats the roaches”. Can’t argue with that.

You want some salmonella with those flies?

Mr McPherson must still be on vacation.

Isn’t there a certain species of toad who’s slime has hallucinogenic properties? Maybe that’s why the kids look so happy.

When lunch is over they all head back to Biology class.
