Frankly, we'd rather find one in our food.

I've heard of kissing a frog, but this is ridiculous.
First?

Guess she didn't have her chastity belt on at the time ;-)

What a way to go down in the annals of history. "Catharina, the toad-vomiting woman." I think I'd rather do something more normal, like being burned at the stake.

BMX3,
LOL! That was perfect.
If claiming a frog was a son or daughter would get me a tax deduction then I'll say it. Yep. Rather claim a mammal but whatever works for the IRS works for me.

The National Enquirer is clearly not doing its job - this should have been a front page story weeks ago.

Ernest Borgnine's mother said the same thing after he was born.

You know, this is exactly the sort of thing that is going to lead to mandatory warning labels on pond water douche!

Didn't anyone tell her she was supposed to KISS a few frogs to find her prince? Geez. Her ayatollah would be disappointed!

Some things are just too hard to believe..... so I'll continue NOT wanting to believe this one too.
Sorry, just TOO WEIRD!

Right on Barbi - this story is an obvious UL, not to say journalistic hoax. Even though it was on the BBC web page, they weren't really reporting the incident as such, but on the coverage of it, in kind of a world wide weird feature. The press of the third world is fertile ground for "imaginative reporting" (unlike ours - har)

Considering that this was in Iran, I am suprised there is not an account of the women being stoned to death for adultery. The mullahs take that very seriously iver there.

When asked for an explanation, the woman replied:
Oh, Im in love with a big blue frog. A big blue frog loves me. Its not
as bad as it appears he has rhythm and a Ph.D....

Rivitosexual activity is disgusting, and can spawn more serious pervertions.

Lairbo,
I have that album! In vinyl even. The times they have a-changed. Thanks for the refresher.

Here's the woman's account of the father of her child: "...was a good friend of mine, never understood a single word he said, but I helped him drink his wine..."
