Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for November 30, 2023

Toad rage!

Shane MacGowan, Songwriter Who Fused Punk and Irish Rebellion, Dies at 65

Why you toad liquor, you …!

I, for one, would like to hear more about this specific wheel of death which toad knocked over.

Sure, blame the amphibian.

_“The wheel of death

Goes spinning around

Will the arrow point my way?

Will this be my day?

.

While the wheel is spinning, spinning, spinning

I’ll not dream of winning, fortune or even fame

While the wheel is turning, turning, turning

I’ll be yearning, yearning

For death’s precious flame”_

With apologies to Kay Starr

I hear he was so drunk, he very loudly, burrribitted all the way home. He missed his lily pad altogether, fell in the pond, then hopped onto his neighbors pad and pounced on his female partner…it didn’t end well….next think I know is the neighbor and partner were eating breaded frog legs and asparagus, with white wine…go figure!

Cage match between the Frog Applause™ terrible toad and the Monty Python dynamite rabbit. Who wins?

Hell hath no fury like…

Pretty sure this is a euphemism, and I am also pretty sure I don’t want to know what for.

Of course! Warty Bliggens thinks he is untouchable. All others of us are cockroaches compared to him. And why is he so favored among all others in the Universe, one might ask?

has done to deserve me

He was after the Courvoisier

‘The Wheel of Death’ is an odd name for a liquor store. In certain extreme cases, it can be accurate though, I guess.

Hopped right to it, didn’t he?

seems to be some confusion here

“The Wheel of Death” sounds so much more interesting than just some scummy old liquor store! But, either way, the moral of the story is, never trust a toad….

Toadally, dude.

So the topic changes from a clumsy toad to a violent theft just by changing the object.
