Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for August 03, 2010

Killer butterflies on the loose!

Yes! My name is mentioned in Frog Blog yet again:

http://obituarytypo.blogspot.com/2010/08/pilots-watch.html

I am famous.

Or at least I’m in good company with the likes of Joe Allen Doty.

Not to fear, Old Man! No butterflies want you.

If Theresa is responsible for the absence of Joe-Allen-Joe’s musings, then more power to her

Speaking of Joe Allen, I haven’t seen anything by him on any of the strips lately. Where is he ?

@MorganZ: http://obituarytypo.blogspot.com/2010/07/yes-we-feel-love_10.html

Wondering the same,,new name??

This was his alias. All of his comments have since been deleted here too. http://www.gocomics.com/people/index/460468

Yeah, I think he came back as “Otra Vez” for a couple of days, but he’s gone now.

Ahhhh, come on guys, can’t you just enjoy the silence.

As for the strip: Too bad for him, I rather enjoy a rabble of butterflies in my pants.

I don’t know… I think exposure to a cocoon would do him some good.

What are a bunch of butterflies called? A flock? A swarm? A flutter?

Um, I see an off-center bulge in that guy’s pants. Is that a special protective cup in case of a direct butterfly attack?

@whaletail. That’s not a protective cup. It’s his surveillance pickle. http://www.gocomics.com/frogapplause/2010/04/27/

I heard of departed poster was sent to GITMO for Mopery with intent to gawk. Now this may not be 100% true as I haven’t looked it up in Greek yet.

Good to know.

I’ve always thought that Joe had some difficulties, and was not really capable of appreciating the effects of his comments. The fact that he had so many different jobs should tell us something. As someone said, he is a Vietnam vet, and deserved our gratitude and maybe a little understanding.

That’s all very well, but are they woodpecker- or especially rodent-with-massive-cheek-pouches-proof?

agreed! the surveillance pickle is up and alert. nothing, but NOTHING gets past the surveillance pickle!

(Mammary Ma’am to Old Smiling Butterfly Dude, about a minute before that picture was snapped):

“Put that thing away - you’re getting pickle juice all over my melons.”

Re: the FLOG - I don’t care what you call me, as long as it starts with “Big”

Nope, some people just don’t know when to be quiet; that there no idiots out here who can read, but need an explanation of the most mundane. I quit reading most comments because I did not want to read his drivel.

I just realized I had gone my entire life without EVER seeing a Sarcastic Fringehead Fish fight, and if it wasn’t for our beloved Teresa, I may have died WITHOUT ever seeing one. See what benefits accrue from being a Frog Applause kind of person? How can anyone NOT love FA?

P.S. For those, like me, who went further into the colored images from 1940 and Pie Town, there really was, and still is, a “Pie Town”. Here is today’s weather there…

EDIT:For some reason, my Pie Town Weather Report had disappeared, so I put it back…???

those kissing fish, that kissing s fighting

no where near as bad as my murderous goldfish, hera the terror, who smashed a tank once to try to kill another fish in a neighboring tank

I tried to ignore it, Teresa, but I just can’t - it’s driving me insane. Please don’t bar me, but it’s accordion, NOT accordian. Forgive me my trespasses…

Sarcastic fringeheads?
