Dead Frog...
« on: March 10, 2017, 01:24:43 PM »
While searching for a catchy headline for the demise of Cubs' 20 game winner Bill "Froggy" Hands, I learned the meaning of Dead Frog.

So everyone press your junk against some glass tonight in tribute to Bill Hands.

I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

I met him at an Emil Verban Society luncheon, and he invited us to visit him out in Orient. Sadly, we never made the trek. Awesome guy.
