    IFOCE should have gotten their hands on this one. Frog legs are very tasty and delicious. For anyone that has never tried them they can become very addicting. They are also very very salty.

    Superpaulsetsthebarlow,

    If turtle tits WERE next, you wouldn’t be able to finish a pair!

    Why not fried ants. The eaters can use tweezers to pick them up and eat them picnic style.

    No one can eat just one…..but I’d try. That pumpkin pie contest sounds more like it!
    This may hurt the Bullfrogs chances in the game, sounds like they will have to depend on the long ball, and forget the stolen base, or any running for that matter. I’ll take the Mallards to win 5-1.

    Unfortunately, I won’t be making it to Frogs Legs.

    Long story short, I have a double alarm clock & I accidently set it for the wrong time. Unless my wife sabotaged me by moving it. Which IS possible, but unlikely.
