WOW! Bet you that frog is having the time of his life. I learned that a frog is composed of diamagnetic material. That's why he can levitate in a magnetic field. When the scientist can build a similar suit for humans, and a bigger magnetic field, that will be my turn. They'll want a French frog to levitate. Sorry about you, Jams.

I'd have to sit and think a while before dressing in a levitating frog suit.
