What's that old joke about turning the heat up slowly when a frog's in the pot?

...surpriiiiiiise...

Some NASA sources are unsure how the frog was able to jump so high...
Considering that while it was getting it's @$$ fried off, add in the boost it got from the rocket exhaust,
and I'm guessing that 'jumping' was not a large proportion of the frog propulsion equation here... :shock:

"Hey, Kermit -- let's see ya do this..."

"Damn, those leg crunch Pilates really do work!"

"Okay, so far so good..."

"Next time I'm insisting on a more restrained wake-up call..."

"Is it just me, or is it getting a little warm?"
