Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for February 07, 2012

This must be Russia under Stalin.

Regulations, regulations…

No wonder they’re so careful about asking if you want to see their walnetto!

Well it is important to keep walnettos separated or they may reach critical mass.

Legislation that was brought about because of the movie “Deliverance”

What about Davy Crockett, He killed him a bar when he was only 3

Ruth Buzzi will be so relieved.

I don’t believe the mythmaking of the faceless masses.

Keep your hands off of my nuts.

Back where I was jerked up we didn’t have us no forest … we just had a bunch of trees!!! {8•)

You’ll never gonna’ believe what I seen down at the hardware last saturday, RayC. Guess what they was sellin’?-Dirt !!! They was sellin’ bags of dirt. I ain’t kiddin’ … they must of been more’n a hundred bags piled up in there. An’ they was people buyin’ ‘em. I ain’r lyin’ … they was buyin dirt !!!

Sock it to me?

I was disappointed to find that the “local” museum of western art (I don’t live in Indianapolis but I can get to the museum in under an hour so that’s local to me), the Eiteljorg Museum seems not to have any works of William Henry Jackson. It does have works painted by friends of his who used his photographs. And I was reminded that TSA can mean something rather pleasant, the Taos Society of Artists.

Dang, it dropped the link to the page that describes theTaos Society of Artists.

@ApersonI used to live in the “woods”. Now I buy dirt and manure, living in a forest of cement, clay and glass. (New Riders reference)My Nationality: Inbred Hillbilly.

Teresa must be on a Walnetto kick today. How interesting and not grotesque!

No problem, I don’t live in the forest.

Re: blog “Haircut” ; makes me wonder, was a Scotch Bikini Tape Rip the predecessor to the Brazilian Bikini wax?

@APOIBilly Joe Shaver and Tom T. Hall. Greats.

Just noticed Vlad stats. Seems he’s been busy this month.

That’s Cape Cod in 1620.

Are you British? What does ‘resignation’ mean in this context? this is what I think of when you say resignation photo

It’s STIGPICKERS.

The 1948 Allied Radio catalog was a little before my time, but when I wanted a tape recorder for Christmas to tape songs off the radio and TV, my dad brought home an Allied Radio catalog. They also sold components like resistors and capacitors. When I saw all those cool looking parts, I was fascinated. Then I saw an ad for an electronics kit that made all sorts of things, like a proximity detector, a photocell detector, a radio, etc. I had to have it. I burned fingers to a crisp learning to solder, and by the time I was ready for college there was no doubt my major would be Electrical Engineering. I’ve worked in that field ever since, and never regretted that.

Apologies for telling my life story here, but there may be a few who can identify with someone who suddenly discovers what he or she was meant to do.
