361.0. "Toad-licking - Fad or Trend?" by SWAM2::MCCARTHY_LA (Value indifferences?) Thu Oct 11 1990 13:56

    News reports reaching the U.S. indicate that Toad-licking has
    recently surpassed Whirly-Twirlies as a favorite Canadian
    leisure-time activity.

    Can anyone comment on this? Is it just a fad? Are the ratings of
    Hockey Night in Canada threatened as Toad-licking sweeps the nation?
    What impact, if any, might Toad-licking have on the excavation
    schedule of the Grand Canal?

    Well?

    Don't think so ... too cold and wet for toads lately ... you could
    say the weather dampened a possible fad.

    I know it's not in fashion outside of Quebec, but do consider frogs
    lower limbs, they are great, and it will serve to unite Canada because
    WASPs and western rednecks will also respond to being called "frog"

361.6Cane Toads can kill....ORCAS::MCKINNON_JAnaked dukes on rampageFri Oct 12 1990 04:0112
    Toad licking is something that can be done with a Cane Toad.
    There is a "mind altering" substance that is secreted by the toad.
    This substance can/will kill small animals, i.e. cats and dogs.
    There is a funny movie on this toad called, Cane Toads.  They make
    wonderful, tame pets that will destroy crops.  They eat anything that
    moves except the cane beetle/worm they were imported to attack.
    When driving over cane toads, hit them head on and they explode.
    Then take the carcass and boil the skin.  What comes when you 
    boil the skins is dried and then smoked.  This activitie is usually
    done in Queensland of the colonie called Australia. ;-).

    <<Does Korf Barbunk enjoy toad licking?

From a usually reliable source and a close bed partner of Korff Barbunk,
the great inventor of Glumpf has never engaged in toad licking as he belongs
to the Royal Society of Fud Puckers who, as a matter of course, eschew
load ticking.

However, members of his family, and even his private members, have engaged
in more sordid activities that would embarrass the saltiest dung-sniffer.

I have heard that His Horrificness, The Great Umlaut Hisself, Korff Barbunk
will be making a pubic appearance in the nude future.

All Hail His Great Colonness, Barff Carjunk!
