Washington now has an official amphibian. No, really.


From the Boston Globe:

Washington now has an official amphibian -- the Pacific chorus frog -- a lighthearted addition to a growing list of "official" things that now includes a state vegetable, ship, folk song and even grass, though not the funny kind.

Gov. Chris Gregoire, wearing a toy frog on her forefinger, signed the bill Monday, bantering with the Boston Harbor Elementary School third graders who brought the legislation forward as a class project.


Can the Pacific chorus frog play "Rainbow Connection" on the banjo? I didn't think so. You made a crappy choice, Washington.
