The Frog's Still Kickin'
I've never really enjoyed dissecting animals but I was forced to do so in high school biology class. Most people say that you shouldn't get emotionally attached to the little frog in front of you but we just had to name it. So, since frog legs seem to be a delicacy, mostly because they are small and expensive, it's first name was to be dejeuner, the French world for lunch. And since we thought our little dejeuner was pregnant and we happened to be reading the Grapes of Wrath, her last name was Rosasharn. The name actually kind of helped the process because it was something to laugh about. What didn't help was that the leg kicked, even though the frog was dead, when it was poked in a certain place. She could still kick a bucket even after she kicked the bucket.
