Last night my
goldfish died.
Driven insane
by syphilis!
***
I wanted to give
the fish a proper
Christian burial
***
but I was at
a loss in the
matter of fish
***
So, taking a page
from the Bible,
I wrapped the
fish in it.
***
Bon voyage, old friend.

RIP Vida

(1) “I really should have been better about changing the water.” Apple cider vinegar would have given your goldfish a more vibrant color.
(2) Good luck Googling goldfish graves.
(3) Your goldfish will be reincarnated as a megalodon of biblical proportions, and will star in a Jason Statham sequel.
It was quite a moving experience to see, David. I wish you could have been there, instead of me.
Gulp!
And then we all sang, “Eternal Father, Strong to Save”. RIP
Then we sang my favorite, “Nearer My God to Thee (Tho Why Now, as I am so Young)”
:D The Mermaid Tabernacle Choir was very impressed.
Sad.
Well, I hope not too sad. Thanks, Mich
I hope you picked the page with story of the loaves and fishes. That would have been appropriate.
Yeh, but I am pretty sure they eat that fish
Clever! :) :)
Thanks, as always, Betsy
Sad.
Oh, Sadje.
😟
Ha-ha. Alright.

Insanity does not a cause death. The Coroner will be investigating. Please do not leave the country.
It’s a fair cop.

Thanks, David
Excellent!
Still grinin’!
Thanks, 00individual. I appreciate it.
I mean, really, I read the first comment and those shoes are too big to fill.
LMAO
At the comment. Not goldfish death.
Hah! I dig it, Seliza
You two were lucky to have the time you did. “Old friends” are with us forever.
Man we got to get together for a meal and talk things over.
Whynot? Thanks, Ccbh
My last goldfish — Moby Dick and Sasquatch… long gone but fondly remembered….
I bet you could write a whole novel on Moby Dick, though Sasquatch was always sort of a mystery.
Ha! :)
Sad and beautiful.
Thanks, Janny
What a beautiful fish! Very photogenic.
From what I am told she was very special.
