Nice to know that ALL the flakes don't live in Frisco.

I went to visit my sister and her 3 year old daughter
had been to a carnival.
She got a goldfish and not having a fish bowl, they
put it in a regular bowl.
She wanted to show me her goldfish but the bowl was
empty.
I stepped on the poor fish.
It might have been dead before but most certainly was
dead then.
Their cat ran over and started licking the fish and
my niece said "look uncle frank the kitty is kissing
my fish to make it well".
I picked her up and carried her into another room.

John Edwards has agreed to be general counsel for the goldfish in the multi-million class-action lawsuit.

Guess that goldfish I swallowed in High School would have really landed me in trouble in this Italian town.

Good Lordy Mercy. I am so glad I was a child before this silliness started. I knew that little gold fish that I would take home in a water filled baggie was not going to live for long. I was as fasinated by the burial by toilet as much as anything. Take a child fishing -----please.

One day a silly urge came over me and I walked into a pet store on the way home and purchased two small gold fish and a two gallon fish bowl. I tossed in some garden gravel and it was supposed to be a treat for the children. One fish died the first week. the second fish lived....and lived......and lived.

what I thought was going to be a six month project lived for 51/2 years. Of cleaning the bowl. Of feeding the fish. I used to let the water get so cloudy you could not see the fish. I swear that fish has a headlamp to find its way around the fish bowl.

It died because I fogot to rinse the soap from the rocks.

I was positively chipper at the funeral.

When I read the headline I expected the story to be about goldfish bowls filled full of kool-aid mixed with Everclear.

Next they'll be banning hanging plants.
