Or maybe they were just horny (my God, not for me). Anyway, it made me think of your anti-muse muse, Janet. Word spreads fast in the arboreal Kermit kommunity. -- Sully Had to laugh a while ago as I roller skied through marshy runoff at Elm Creek and heard about a zillion frogs giving me “what for.” Or maybe they were just horny (my God, not for me).

You must bring booze, food for the wild dogs that live in the hills, pool cues for the game down the road, cameras for Utube, and tape recorders. My friend the psychiatrist who writes books on Frisbees will be joining us. --Janet As soon as my portable 02 is back in operation, I shall invite you to follow me to the land of the talking tree frog mascots of SU.

No lakes out my window, alas, but something just as magnetic to me: the mountains on the edge of town, which I defy any ducks to carry away. They don’t move a whole lot, but they often trigger the thought, “Hmm … wonder what things look like from up THERE now.” In all, a healthier distraction than The Internets. For which I had to come up with preventative measures. So I keep a salmon can on my desk with some coins inside. Nicely resonant nickels and pennies. Taped a note around the can that says CAN YOU SPARE SOME CHANGE? When I catch myself staring at the lovely bright shinies too long, I give that thing a vigorous shake and the wages of dawdling become ever so clear.

Turns out his "limbs" were calcified in warts from the papilloma virus. So maybe the Dutch Elm disease folderol I threw out there wasn't that far off the mark. -- Sully Forgot to mention, Amalgam, there was a photo on Drudge couple days ago of a man who appeared to be encrusted with tree bark.
