Jimmy Legs threatened with eviction
from frog-only community aquarium

Aquatic frog Jimmy Legs is in danger of being evicted from the frog-only community tank that took him in last month after tank officials ejected him from our community aquarium.

Citing his aggressive behavior toward Dean and Sammy, frog community manager Rachel Platt says Jimmy is one frog tantrum away from being punished, banished or worse.

"I've threatened him every way I know how," Platt said. "I even told him I might use him to make a batch of frog legs. Nothing seems to scare him out of being a perfect little twit."

Jimmy Legs comes from a broken home. His mother, Cari Heelan, and his father, Tim Baxter, have been embroiled in a long custody battle. In truth, neither owner seems to care much what happens to the frog who has been at the root of a lot of trouble.

Tank officials who have testified during the Legs custody trial stated outside of court that they still suspect Jimmy Legs as the frog who killed Frank "Blue Eyes" Platt, the first frog to ever inhabit the community aquarium. Frank died Sept. 13. The official cause of death remains "natural causes," but officials familiar with the case say there is more to the story.

"Officially, Frank died of starvation," TankKeeper said several weeks ago. "But we have reason to believe Jimmy was actively keeping Frank at bay in order to have more food for himself. If that isn't murder, I don't know what is. At the very least it's negligent homicide."

When reached for comment about Jimmy's perilous situation, Baxter said, "Good. He has lived by the sword. He'll die by the sword."

Cari Heelan is on trial for witchcraft and was unavailable for comment.
