Thanks!! I had to google that!!

Frog Giggin' is the art of catchin' Bull Frogs, for the purpose of eating them. Frog legs make for a very tasty southern meal.
Find a small pitchfork or frog gig and attach it to a broomstick
Get a semi-powerful flashlight, this is what you will use to blind the frogs.
Go to a nearby pond or lake where you can hear lots of croaking.
Walk around the edge quietly, shining the flashlight on the edge of the water.
Once you spot a large enough frog, thrust the gig into the frog as fast as possible.
If you are successful, you will have a wiggling frog on your gig.
Continue hunting for frogs until you have a suitable amount for a meal.

Today is March 6th.  I hope that you have recovered by now and that you have a success story (or at least a humorous story) that you can share!
