Car Fever Spoiler Article

If you haven't gotten the book yet and don't want to know what's in it, don't read this article. It does some revealing. I'll only say one thing in my defence. From what I saw in my pond at the beginning of the summer, the Smart car does NOT look like two frogs mating. Not unless it's been smashed down and has several different pipes pointing in different directions. ;D

Hehe.... well, it sort of does.

Look, here's a tender moment of passion between a black and a silver

Now I wish I had taken a picture of those two frogs before pulling them out of the pond. I had described it in one of the earlier morning/evening threads this year. Here is what I saw and pulled out of my pond. At first, I thought it was a dead frog, because it was stiff and straight. When I pulled it closer, I saw extra limbs and immediately thought about the Minneapolis reports of deformed frogs back in the 90s. I didn't have my glasses on at the time, so it was hard to tell, until I pulled them out and they separated. I had to laugh after that. ;D No, I've seen pics of curled up mating frogs in science books, sometimes more than two together at a time, and they do sort of look like a Smart car. I guess my personal finding in my pond was like a Smart car that was stuck in a junk yard car compactor.
