Froggy

Today while I was taking my shower I kept turning up the heat of the water. I am one of those people who like the water to hit your back so hard that it hurts. I can't stand pitty little drizzle showers.

frogBut, anyway, I kept on thinking, I'm just like those poor little frogs that they boil to death. I bet you could increase the heat of my shower in tiny increments untill it burned all my skin off, and I'd continue to stand there. Oh, the allegories!

And the game Frogger too. What do humans have against the poor little guys? We are either boiling them to death or running them down in cars. Sad.

  1. ummm...jenn? would this be a bad time to tell you that in physiology, our prof. anethesized the frogs, cut their heads off, stuck a probe down their spines to stop spinal reflexes, and then we cut their skin off, pulled it down to their legs, cut their gastrocnemius half off and then hung the muscle so that a probe could deliever a shock to the muscle and we recorded the results? oops....

  3. gastrocnemius is your calf muscle...it's attached to your achilles tendon
