    If she was a frog, she should have croaked, right?

    Frogs spawn; they do not “mate”.
Of course, the female can indeed get picky about what male she shares her eggs with.

    You mean to tell me that my ex wife is a frog?  Should'a tried the old gambit...
 "Hi honey, here's two aspirin."
"But I don't have a headache."
"Good. Let's get busy."

    I post threads on what I see as serious subjects, and feel lucky to get 35 responses.
A thread on the sexual activity of frogs gets 35 responses in a half hour!
Oh well.
Back to the frogs!

    I guess ugly, amorous, frisky female frogs fantasize about luring successful business type male frogs into changing rooms in upscale department stores...
