I'm always happy to get a photo of a frog;
not sure that I'd be 218 times as happy if, well, you know.Music of the Week
Poetry of the Week
Be kind and tender to the Frog,   And do not call him names,As ‘Slimy skin,’ or ‘Polly-wog,’   Or likewise ‘Ugly James,’Or ‘Gape-a-grin,’ or ‘Toad-gone-wrong,’  Â   Or ‘Billy Bandy-knees’:The Frog is justly sensitive   To epithets like these.No animal will more repay   A treatment kind and fair;At least so lonely people sayWho keep a frog (and, by the way,  ÂThey are extremely rare).Posted: 2025 Jan 25
