Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for September 14, 2012

I don’t blame you kid. I spent my entire life with that knowledge. Fat bloody lot of good it did me !

march to your own drummer, son.

How did you find a picture of me when I was 10?

That dad’s father probably said the same thing to him. Do most fathers want their sons to follow in their footsteps?

OK. I just noticed that the boy is only thinking those words. He’s not saying them out loud. Some things should probably not be said out loud.

Someday, son, you could be a douchebag.

My father once said to me, “One day all this will be yours.” I thought, “I want my own stuff, not your old junk.”

Curses! The boy may be doomed!Runaway!

If you know the rules, you know how to make them work in your favor and/or get around them.

WORK YOUR FINGERS TO THE BONE.

………to the bone…….at a McJob that doesn’t pay a living wage, if you can find one, and aren’t over 50.

@Sisyphos

Thanks for the Del Shannon blast from the past, and 45’s. You’re older than the hills.

@INGSOC

……..“broken”…….Witness the corruption of the golden rule, by the reeps. …..he who holds the gold, and the reins to power…..And a whole lotta other rules and bits of wisdom spoken of by the Nazarene, whom they profess to worship.Most of the other stuff regarding morality in the good book, too.

“When free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost.”.

Ronald Reagan1980

He and subsequent bought and paid for reeps+Wall Street+vulture capitalists with big $$$ have engaged in non-stop union-busting ever since.Unions cut into profits that could otherwise be stashed in tax-avoidance havens around the world.

And the timeless cycle of rebellion and self-realization goes on. So, how come my career paralleled my dad’s so closely? I’m glad it’s Friday. Otherwise I couldn’t face all the implications.

just dont break rules that will get you put in a cage.people cages are full of not nice people…otherwise, go ahead!think outside the box!

i did not feed your turtles today Teresa.they were not in the box when i went to your blog.

…thats my boy…

the crank(er) looks like Willard Scott…

ya gotta know the rules in order to break’em ral good!

When will fathers ever learn that their sons are NOT the extensions of their own egos ?

RE: Blog- You were at the Hermitage … BIG WOOP! … I posed for the sculptor (Manny (we all called him) Godinho) – :-)

Yes … I know … show me the love!!!

I’m announcing the formation of the Frog Blog Caption Improvement Society (a subdivision of the increasingly irrelevant TDL (Teresa Defense League)).

Re: PEEL POTATOES WITH A CRANK

The better caption would be: PEEL POTATOES WITH A CRANK WEARING A BOWTIE

Who’s with me on this? Marg? Crazy Hooter? Larry the Spinning Head? Geriatric Canis Lupis? Tokyo Bunny? The Chevron Avenger? Mr. Burrit (a/k/a nighthawks)? Bueller? Bueller?

P.S. to Tee: Don’t mention it. In fact, I’ll say it for you.

♥YES, WE FEEL THE LOVE♥

Rotifer, but no one would want to peel taters with that creepy c̶̶r̶a̶n̶k guy bowtie or not.

“Cat’s in the Cradle”

I was also once owned and photographed by William Wegman. In those days I was known as Wilbur Weimaraner. You might have heard of me?-Oh yes … I feel the love!!!! 8-))

Hold the horses of the potato crank peeler man, rotifer and ottod! Weren’t you BOTH accused of being Teresa at one time? Or is that oxcart? oxmate? (Something like that.)

Of course you think that kind of thinking is a good idea… YOU ARE TERESA.

I have gained 20 lbs merely by looking at those home made pretzels.
