?Frogs = Evil?

Hi Folks!

Remember what we talked about in the class? About gipsies being superstitous about frogs?

Well... I looked it up on my Superstition Dictionary and frogs have some negative symbolic connotations like (and I quote and translate it; it has some REALLY extraordinary things):

"it is said they are a product of Cerebro's slobber and are often invocated in scatological ceremonies (and here is the strange and funny part) where they are obligated into sucking an old witche's breast, then baptize him with urine and after that are given in sacrifice to the evil powers (whoever thoswe might be).

It is said as well that witches have frogs in the place of the heart.

If you want to know if you are gifted with magical arts (a witch) all you have to do is: stare, for 24 hours non-stop, into a jar filled with formol in which a frog is floating. if after those hours you pass out yhat means you are a witch" (well............ after 24hours looking to a dead frog who doesn't have fit??)

So, the poor things are related with witches and "evil powers", maybe that's why gipsies don't go into Serpa's Intermarche. Who knows?

(By the way, if you don't know who Cerebro is look for Greek mythology, he is a really big three-headed dog and guardian of Hell's (Hades is whart they called them) doors. And the referrence to scatology doesn't have to do with er.. feces, but it is a term that relates to end-of-the-world alegories and knowledge, in other words, apocapliptic).

Good night to you all and after this rather sordid post, well, think happy, think pink!!
