Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 30, 2012

That touch of green has a certain je ne cest qua..And that snake is exiting stage left.

I’m tempted to say that the last rack is the apple of his eye.

Just an old snake in the dress-mannikins (exiting stage-right, margueritem). Classy design shop!

Ooohh…oooohhh….Can I go too??

Why does @Dogsniff always get the one with the nice booty?

I AM THE NOWHERE MAN, LIVING IN MY NOWHERE LAND.kinda the Beatles.

Wheres that swan killing chick when you really need her?

A boa boa.

You all scoff and make silly dirty jokes and you don’t see the deep, deep meanings embedded in this strip. I feel sorry for all of you.

I said, “deep” and “embedded”! Hee hee hee.

Been a while since I’ve seeeeen one of those.

Rotifer, you said we could take turns…so,Don’t bogart that joint.my friendPass it over…to me

Mannikins snakes!!! A story as old as Eden.

Arabesque:

“the swans fly high in the kingdom of Vespa”

manikins are designed intelligently. snakes are not…

RE: Blog … my fav Howlin’ Wolf … SMOKESTACK LIGHTNING … WHOEEEEEE-OOOOOO.

SNAKES ON A FRAME!!!!

Only haul out my snake when actual ladies are present.

why don’t they call them “womanikins”?!?…..It’s only fitting….☻

The Cree sunrise song took me back to 1956, when I would stick this record on my player and listen to these stories over and over again. It’s lovely that they are still available.

nighthawks – I won’t bogart if you agree to stop drinking the bong water.

Blog comments:

1. A manikin with a tramp stamp? Whoda thought?

2. Cree Sunrise Song is beautiful. I’m no music theorists, but it’s interesting that Cree music seems to have the same musical scale as modern (European/American etc) music does. Was this song composed before the Cree were exposed to Europeans? Is there some inherent compelling drive that makes all humans come to the same tonal scale? I think some eastern music is different, but didn’t the native Americans come here from the Far East, across the Bering Sea land bridge? Can anyone enlighten us?

3. The novel The Body Farm by Patricia Cornwell features a fictional (?) body farm in Tennessee run by the FBI. I love her novels: all kinds of cool medical examiner stuff. Great suspense, and you can learn useful skills like how to interpret blood splatters on a wall. I think I recommended this series to Marg long ago, but it wasn’t gory enough for her.

I like today’s strip with the added butterflies; the added color, I guess.

…I have always wanted my remains to go to a body farm …

Of course it’s going nowhere. Nary a wheel on any of those forms.

Blog: “Crop-damaging grasshoppers were collected in a horse-drawn trap and later killed.”And then taken to a taco shop?

Who’d a thunk there’d be so much difference between Moeraki Boulders and Mo Rocca?

I like bunnies…

Going nowhere:

Crickets are a tasty treat if prepared right and Australia has a green variety of ant that tastes just like sour apple and is best eaten raw and alive, plucked right from the tree it likes to frequent. I have not, however, eaten any larvae. I wonder if the creamy center tastes like custard? I’ll get back to you on that.

Started reading Cornwall’s novels about 15 years ago, enjoyed them thoroughly.

re Yes, we feel the love, on Frog Blog:I’m as old as dirt, and I like it…shows how much you know.

Well … no strip today?

Why hasn’t GoComics posted todays strip???

Also it’s not the only one on my comics page, or whatever they call it, that didn’t update when it should have.

I always learn a little lame something with every visit to Frog Applause….. love the walking pylons – makes me want to visit Iceland to view their cable-carrying’s on!

Ridiculous!
