The story of hoppity, Part 1
I was surfing my favorite forum, the extreme overclocking forum and came across a post that caught my eye. It read "I.. found my neibhor's frog." and here it is quoted from EOCF, the original can be found at: http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/showthread.php?t=189190
"Well, after going out to smoke just a bit ago, I noticed the lawn could use some trimming. I pulled the tractor out, and proceeded to do my pre-flight checklist. The first thing? Clean out the deck's vent holes.

Excuse the quality, camera phone, you know.
I grabbed out a few handfuls of hay, then I stumbled onto something. It felt hard, and was black. "Crap" I bellowed. I thought the vent housing had overheated (my belts slip and smoke sometimes) and part of it had melted. As I slowly worked it out of the vent, I realised this was not plastic.
WHY HELLO THAR, FROGGY!

My neighbor's little girl has been missing a pet frog for a while now. She's spoiled, and even had a pond set-up for him near our shared fenceline. I think his name is.. erm, was, Hoppity. At least he's preserved for the ages.
She even drew "lost frog" sighns in crayon, and hung them up. I wonder if I should try and collect on the five dollar reward?
I've got to go wash my hands now. "
