“Yes,” said Frog, reaching for a cookie, “we need will power.”

“What is will power?” asked Toad.

“Will power is trying hard not to do something you really want to do,” said Frog.

Frog stands with two cookies, one in each hand.

Jack Bryan on Threads talks about how Frank Sinatra saved Don Rickles's life. Rickles said, "Some goons were beating me up. Frank comes over and says, 'Okay, guys, that's enough.'"

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."
