Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming --WHEW-- What a Ride!!!" -Author unknown

Floater
My goldfish died last night. I think I killed him by accident. We've been putting Martha's water in our well for the last few months because we have no water. I'm pretty sure he didn't like the taste of it. My dad has to get him out of the tank tonight unless we have any volunteers. I am seriously afraid of him. He weighs about 400 pounds. He should have died 2 weeks ago during the camp out and Miles could have eaten him. I'm sad he's gone but he was about 4 years old.

Sorry to hear about your fish! 4 years is pretty good for a goldfish...but now you don't have to shake somebody down to clean out your fish tank every month or so...
I have a kid at school who's fish died last week. It was dead when they went to feed it before going to bed. He's still having nightmares...
I would love to say that I am heartbroken but I won't lie. I was scared of those fish.
Who gets scared of goldfish?! Was your fish some kind of mutant?
Did you ever see the fish? It had huge eyes and was super creepy...
Do you still have your sea monkies? They were dead for years and you didn't get rid of them - - what's the hurry with the goldfish?
My goldfish got bigger and BIGGER....the sea monkeys are long gone. Or maybe they are living the septic tank.
I once had a fish for like a year and a half...his name was buddy, he was a beta...
Those Sea Monkeys ARE in the septic tank - and now THEY have grown - and have their own little colony - you just wait - - one night when it is really quiet - -
OK Rach you've gotten enough mileage from the dead stinky fish. Would you like Noah to tell you what a fish says?? Now it's time for an update.
