7. When I was a kid,
my mom got a huge saltwater aquarium and began occasionally feeding brine shrimp to some of her fish. One day, my little brother saw her doing that and goes, "You're feeding them SEA MONKEYS??????" :rofl:

:loveya:

8. 'Well, last week on Fish Club, we learned how to sex a pike
and this week we're going to learn how to feed a goldfish. Now, contrary to what most people think, the goldfish has a ravenous appetite. If it doesn't get enough protein it gets very thin and its bones begin to stick out and its fins start to fall off. So, once a week, give your goldfish a really good meal. Here's one specially recommended by the Board of Irresponsible People: First, some cold consommé or a gazpacho, then some sausages with spring greens, sautéed potatoes and bread and gravy."



THE RSPCA WISH IT TO BE KNOWN THAT THAT MAN WAS NOT A BONA FIDE ANIMAL LOVER, AND ALSO THAT GOLDFISH DO NOT EAT SAUSAGES... SHUT UP! THEY ARE QUITE HAPPY WITH BREADCRUMBS, ANT'S EGGS AND THE OCCASIONAL PHEASANT... WHO WROTE THAT??

15. I thought it went, "Don't trust him, He's only got five"?
Edited on Wed Oct-31-07 08:22 AM by darkstar
hmmm....

And there was a great Outer Limits, too, by the same name, with David McCallum (here transformed):

17. I had one of those
But going to a fundie school adults would say something about how it was wrong because God gave us 5 fingers...just a tool of the devil like the Ojia Board which we weren't allowed to have.

20. Kicking for oedi:
Any chance this thing was market twice? Once as an Outer Limits evolution finger, i.e. "How did I ever get along with five?"

And once as Man from Uncle period, i.e., "Don't trust that man, he's only go five." That's definitely more my period and thwe whole spy thing is what I recall being attched to it.


PS: Am I geeking to hard on this?

22. If a swordsman asks if you have it.
Say no. He's looking for the man who killed his father.
