elendil=tinuviel
Rich just changed my username, as requested. The reason for the change, as I may have mentioned, is simply this: I was all in a lather to tell the world about my new Sweetheart Professional D, and I registered using the first name that came to mind, which was my computer's name. However, tinuviel is a woman's name in Elvish, so on reflection I decided to change to a male Elvish name. I was becoming self conscious. I'll post an explanation of "elendil" on the current username thread. Thanks to everyone out there--I've enjoyed my short time on the board.

Lol Wombat, I suppose so. I do have to admit, those little poison arrow frogs of the Amazon Rainforest are pretty nifty critturs...
Light spills into the hidden valley,
Illuminating the falls, paths, and
The breathtaking Elvish dwelling
Set back among great trees.
Lilting strains of Elven songs fill my heart;
I am finally home. ~Isilwen Elanessë

I'm just in a delicate position to comment about frogs :roll:Nanohedron wrote:Why hasn't Zoob posted yet?
Besides, frogs aren't cool. Rather, they're not their best when cool.
You confuse with oysters. Oysters are best cold, so you can hear them say "oy" when you sprinkle them lemon juice.
Frogs get deep-fried (*)
Don't say "yucch".
For I foretell you someday you'll eat them too, when all the chicken get some prion disease or whatever fancy virus, because of being cloned, and genetically altered to hatch featherless, and fed processed steroid-fed cow corpses, which before ate themselves processed fish fed on shaky sheep...
i - And people will be sorry they ate them degenerate dinosaur avatars
ii - And bloody right they will be, for their tummies will be in great pain and their brains start to melt into müesli, and they shall be defenseless for having eaten too many antibiotics in their food
iii - And I'll open Florida Fried Frogs
iv - And its logo will be an F-cube striped blue-white-red
v - And the tube will be full of commercials where retired Florida widows holler "where's the FROG" in the phone
vi - And people will crave Captain Zoob's original recipe
vii - And his Alligator Wine
viii - And I shall buy out all MacDo's and KFC joints
ix - And I shall be the Zubmeister of da World, WHA HA HA HEE HAW HAW

** Toads may be not, but methinks footnotes are cool. (***)

- Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

So grab your friendly neighborhood field guide to amphibians and look ye up the noble Boreal Chorus Frog.
We have them here--waaaaaay up high in the cold cold mountains. They are extremely cool. (In both the literal and figurative sense) You never see them, and most people don't even know they exist, except for this mysterious song coming out of the ponds and lakes in early summer as soon as the ice is off. Little teeny critters with near-perfect camoflage, suction-cupped toes, and a voice that can be heard a good half mile away at least.
As far as I know they are not edible, though, Zoob--much to tiny to be worth the effort. Sorry to dissappoint you.
