17. Reminds me of the time....

Thu Sep 12, 2013, 11:18 AM

Sep 2013

when I was a kid and my parents took me out west through Wyoming and it was desolate and

we drove through a really small town and my Mom read the Population sign, "POP: 27" just

then a frog jumped into our path and my Mom without missing a beat says,

"and one frog and we just ran it over."

Ok, probably not funny to the frog or anyone else but it was to a ten year old kid. I'm a well

adjusted person to this day and would never harm a frog. (except for fetish reasons)
