Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for September 27, 2018

I’ve tried levitating frogs using refrigerator magnets. They do hop into the air, but they come right back down.

When will these frogs reach warp speed? Come on Captain, space awaits.

Nothing was falling into place. I could feel the solid ground slipping away from under me. Pete was dirty. The Shadow was innocent. I’d been working as part of a conspiracy to whitewash Flipper’s back fence when I was on the force. I was being manipulated by things I hadn’t even known existed, and there was no up or down any more. “That’s a lot of words,” I said, “But I hope you don’t mind if my friend stays out and gets some fresh air until the cops get here. He’s developed a cough recently. I like to be sure everybody is going to be all right.”

Diamagnetic Levitation – High Field Magnet Laboratory

So, the frog’s atoms do not feel any force at all and the frog floats as if it were in a spacecraft.

Loving levitation is best achieved with large superconducting magnets, super refrigerators and tiny super frogs.

With all levity, this is a case of repulsive amphibious ribbeting ….

Jack Palance?

It is, however, surprisingly easy to get splattered into a formless spot.

So, the frog dude gets a rise, is that after the princess kisses him?

lovingly

The hope is that those lapels and cuffs come back.

Throw a slab of ice down an watch those babies do the hop!

Another idea, if it gets to hot on earth, open up the cold outer space and let some in.

They levitate well in heavy water I bet.

If you have a magneto, the diamagnetic frog spin is really neat I bet.

Lovingly. Purely for the benefit of the frogs. I am sure the frogs thanked them.

Tadipoles would probably work best of all (sorry, physics pun.)

Sez the Froggie:

It’s not bad enough that they freaked me out as a tadpole in zero gravity on the space station, now THIS!

Someday, I hope to dialame; I have a ways to go, but I am working on it. Live Fast, DiaLame!

Plunk your magnetic twanger Froggy … “Hiya, kids … Hiya, Hiya”

“I gig frogs.” Kermit gulped, hearing the Man In Black. Then, SPLAT! —he had been lovingly levitated into a safe place by the studious Magnetic Researcher. What’s not to love in this namesake land, Froglandia? That’s logical.

Ain’t science wonnaful?

Impatiently waiting for the green pea tea of which he had ordered hours ago..
