Suddenly I’m feeling very froggy. Should we tone it down though in deference to the mourning Sox fans?

I… I… I have a confession. I really don’t follow professional sports.  
I SWEAR that doesn’t make me any less of a man!  
Really I’m FINE with it

Are you almost done painting that frog? The brush tickles  
It’s ok, we’ll convert you. The first thing you should know is: The Atlanta Braves are the pinnacle of all pro sports. Repeat it, learn it, live it.

You know I’m sure this is going to show me for the geek I am but wouldn’t it be more efficient if I used a stencil of a frog? 🙂  
That way I could lick them off faster

Braves, Braves, Braves  
Wasn’t there some big thing a few years ago about the tomahawk chop?

I leave it to the artist to determine how the frogs are drawn.

The tomahawk chop (currently featured as a background noise in a Nelly song) is a little chant we share with a college football team, the Florida Seminoles. It’s a rally song, or a song they sing when the Braves make a good play.

Don’t I know it! I’m stenciling frogs all over the lovely [Jaade] and removing them as fast as I can. Of COURSE I’m lucky 🙂 However the lottery numbers keep eluding me.  
Braves… Gotcha…

Well looks like I’ll have to turn the lights out tonight. Since I have worked lo these many hours today I won’t be back until Monday. I’ll put the pitcher of extra stiff zombies in the fridge. Keep the tub warm for me 😉

Sorry **Dreamer** dear! Us men have a one track mind. And we’re easily attracted to bright shiny things (like red hair.) I can think of a couple of gorgeous brunettes in here! 😉

Damn straight! I originally caught part of the show on PBS, which is what made me buy tickets to the show, when it came to town. That made me buy the CD, but the CD version of _Land of Make Believe_ isn’t as good as it was in the show. So, I eventually bought the DVD, hoping it would be the show version, and it is. Chuck Mangione should get this disc, so he can hear how much better his song can sound, when played by someone like Ben Harloff.

It’s too bad that A) they’re not coming any closer to Boston, this year, than Ohio, and B) Ben is apparently not touring with them, any more. He seems to be in CyberJam, the new show that just opened in London, based on the photos on that website. And, playing the _harmonica!_ He’s a trumpet/flugel player, for crying out loud! And, one of the best I’ve ever heard.

Hi **vanilla**. Welcome to the party.

I think someone should paint chocolate on **vanilla** ; then she’d be fudge swirl.

**Wyatt** ’s got an _admirer!_

Nah! We need something to take our minds off it. Chocolate body painting and a pitcher of Zombies sounds like a good start.

And, don’t worry about the sports thing. I’m not that much of a sports fan, either. I’d rather play than watch, and I couldn’t care less who played third for the 1963 Tigers.

Sounds pretty heartless, to me, breaking up with him on his birthday. Did ya at least have breakup sex with him?
