What's luck got to do with it???

There are plenty of lucky things in life.

A Lucky Horse Shoe, hung properly on the wall.

A Wishbone, especially the larger half of one that has been tugged apart by two people.

Seeing a Shooting Star is thought to be pretty darn lucky.

Lucky Charms Cereal. Because we said so.

Crossing your fingers for good luck is a common action to induce its charms.

A Four Leaf Clover is considered good luck for its rarity.

And though we think it's inhumane, a Rabbit's Foot is considered good luck in our culture.

Also, (if found heads up, with the proper year, and on a day which one feels fine with bending in half to pick up a dirty coin,) a Lucky Penny can be sought after by many superstitious people!

But we think that the best way to gather luck is with the Frogman's newest gem, "LuckyBug!"

The Portly Pickle

Here at the Silver Queen Gallery, we love pickles. Lisa found a great pickle for all of us to share, and though she wasn't there to experience it with Timm and Becca, we still pause now to tell you the tale that is....

The Portly Pickle.

First there was the cutting of the Portly Pickle. It was a beast!

Then after the pickle cutting, was the pickle tasting....

Which did not end up going very well! It was kinda... gross!

Still, whatever way you look at it, we were both in awe. Thanks, Lisa, for an amazingly huge pickle to split. Next time I think we'll just stick with the kind that are right from the jar!

Timm's now in New Zealand!!!

Timm has crossed over into New Zealand and is taking in the left-side-driving, the ancient churches, and today, wild penguins and sea lions!

Timm Continues to Play on The Cook Islands!

Look at some of the amazing things Timm is getting to see and experience on his 3 week vacation!

Don't forget -- make a purchase at the gallery before Timm returns from his Cook Islands/New Zealand vacation, and get entered into a big drawing to win an entire set of "Islanders" frogs!!!

Timm's Cook Island Vacation - update!

Timm is having a blast so far in the Cook Islands with his beloved friend, Ms. Becky! Here are some sights from the first couple of days of his trip. Raise your hand if you're jealous!

This could easily be a unicorn. I think I'd believe it.

Even the signs are pretty!

This looks like it came straight from the set of Survivor, Cook Islands!!!

Timm most certainly is enjoying his relaxing beach vacation. While we miss him terribly, we are so excited for the amazing beauty he is experiencing each day he's away!

~ Lady goes Gaga over Silver Queen Hotel ~

An attempt to recoup the debt hovering over historic Silver Queen Hotel has been canceled. Less than 24 hours before the scheduled Olympic Coast Trustee sale, pop empress Lady Gaga has taken ownership of the $7.5 million lodging. The auction was to take place on the courthouse steps on April 1, 2010 but after receiving word that this Park City icon would have to shut its doors, 24 year old Grammy winner Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta personally delivered a check to the lenders.

Like Lady Gaga's extremely garish costumes, Silver Queen Hotel wears leopard print carpeting, beds with leather studded headboards and decadently adorned suites befitting a brothel. When asked what made her choose the Silver Queen she replied, "The Silver Queen Hotel makes me go Gaga".

Business will remain as usual on the first and second floors but Gaga has grander plans for the third and fourth. Construction will begin immediately, converting the top two floors into a 10,000 square foot private home with a heated salt water pool on the roof. The renovations will begin April Fool's Day 2010.
