Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 27, 2015

Don’t tell me where the chocolate and graham crackers are coming from.

Ooey gooey chewy gluey mildewy eye balls,,,,ick

Ghostbusters— clear your mind of everything, and cross the beams.

Who thought of something?

Dan Aykroid — my childhood hero the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man.

Boom a mushroom cloud of marshmallows.

This is most likely from crying into your hot chocolate.If you cry into your beer, you will probably cry pretzels.A good beer can dry your tears.You don’t want to drink too much beer, though.Getting things too twisted is usually a bad thing.Besides, you will only be lonesome until you get to know people.Then you will come to treasure your time alone.

I’ve seen the world with a five piece bandLooking at the back side of meSinging my songs and one of his now and thenBut I don’t think Hank done ‘em this a’wayNo I don’t think Hank done ‘em this a’way

That’s … that’s really lonesome. Those big ones, right?

That’s terrific! I cry hunks of chocolate. Now, if we can just find some poor sucker who cries graham crackers . . .

I like it! We’ll use the line in our next film, kid. Marshmallows-ha ha ha hah!

I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry….

Marshmallow clouds in a bird dotted azure sky hangs over muted purple mountains bordering a deep blue sea filled with silver and gold sparkling fish feeding on dark green plankton nourished by fine, pearl pebbled sand and you’re worried about a few suger-sticky tears? Buck up soldier!!! The world sails on, chasing the sun through the universe on our way to an unknown destination.

I understand this. Loneliness can be more painful than a physical ailment.

Come with me to the roof of the world and see what’s shaking. Your tears will fly away."I know I must remain inside this silent well of sorrowA strand of silver hanging through the skyTouching more than you seeThe voice of ages in your mindIs aching with the dead of the nightPrecious life (your tears are lost in Falling rain)And if you hear me talking on the windYou’ve got to understandWe must remainPerfect strangers"-Perfect Strangers : Deep Purple

Suggested listening: Bob Seger’s Katmandu, from the Beautiful Loser album, circa 1975. The B-side for the single, which reached 43 on the charts was Nutbush City Limits.(43 on the chart of the Periodic Table of Elements is Technetium.)

Yes. It is synthetic. Technetium does not exist in nature.

I suppose that should be multivalent, since polyvalent has a specific meaning in chemistry. Oddly enough, 0×42, or 42 in hexadecimal, is 66, which is the number for Dysprosium. Number 64 is Gadolinium, which is also multivalent and displays the odd property of warming in the presence of a magnetic field. The absence of a naturally occurring element 43 was predicted by Moseley, who was killed by sniper fire to the head in Gallipoli at age 27. As near as I can tell, this is nowhere near Gallifrey. Of course, one never knows. 0×43, of course, would be Holmium, which is also multivalent, as the inner valence shells grow greatly between Xenon (2;8;18;18;8) and Radon (2;8;28;32;p18;8).The sixth valley is the big one, Tsalmaveth.According to my calculations, then, there is an optimal number of marshmallows to the cup of cocoa, determined by the average size of the mallow and the surface area of the cocoa itself, as postulated by Harry Nillson in Think About Your Troubles.

Although he used tea, and not cocoa in his calculation.
