A few years back I bought a dozen of those bullfrogs. I was traveling home from Texas. While stopping for fuel I saw a man with a truck full of them. So I bought 12 live ones for $15.00. I wanted them for my garden pond. Wow they were loud on summer night.not some weak rebbit but a loud grwung. One day I saw one run across my patio and jump. When it landed it rolled a few times. Once he got stopped I saw a mouse tail sticking out from his mouth. Holly molly it eat a mouse. The frogs disappeared after hurricane sandy.i never saw them come spring time . I think an early snow storm right after sandy got them.

Neighbor might have gigged them and had a good meal.

Yeah, but it may be that Mary Ann was actually the wild one.

Wait. What! Robert, Robert, Robert, You bought a bag full of bullfrogs?!! WHO does that?! That'll change the perception of you around these parts (what am I, a cowboy, talkin' like that?) , adding further to your exotic charm, no doubt. You have my vote. Tell us more, puuuuleezeeeez... And TWELVE, no less, not one or two, but a DOZEN! Egad. You are an adventuresome warrior.

They are, of course,


cheaper by the dozen,

Disney started with a mouse. I started with a frog that eat a mouse. I had a garden railway named Frog Pond & Pumpkin Patch. It was a twice around an 8x10 pond. I wanted frogs. All i could ever find were these little tadpoles that grew into little frogs. Then one day while getting fuel on rt 10 Mississippi. I saw them. Frogs so big. Bigger then any i had ever dissected . The owner of the truck said i had to buy 12. He said. " he only has 100 and would be paid less. If he went below 100 count." So the deal was struck for a dozen @ $15.00. It gets better. He says "i should keep them wet and cold". Otherwise they will not make it back to Pa." He and his friend help me get a few boxes out of the trash. I then place all my old clothes on top of the boxed frogs. A few bags of ice split up per box and i'm good to go. Well until 1400 miles later when my wife gets a glimpse of my laundry.

More fun than a bag full of frogs was it?

Score: 10 laughing emoticons from me.

And a thought... shouldn't we be more sympathetic toward our long-suffering wives?

She says, " Mother, I've found the perfect man. I can't wait to change him!"

Just sayin'
