I'm glad your little Uno is okay!!

Villette's toad throwing contest reminded me of something we would do last summer. Every summer here in Arizona when the monsoons hit, the poisonous toads come out. Like someone mentioned before, if a dog licks one, they can/will die without medical attention. But, we get a TON of them - especially houses with pools. My boyfriend's parents have a pool and we would scoop them up in the pool net and fling them out onto the golf course. You could really get some air with those things! Some of them were big like softballs, and some of them were small like golf balls - nonetheless they were still fun to fling. I think I like the pool net much better than the peeing on the hands though!!

Edited to say: some may think it's cruel to fling the toads. But they do swim and they go in the pool... we didn't particularly want to swim with the poisonous toads.
