I swear, Bumba, (ok if I call you Bumba?) I thought I was the only person in the world who threw in (and got) CJ&TF references. Either that or they were all ignoring me.
I will go cry tears of happiness now - I don’t feel so all alone. I told MrM2U I wanted the christmas carol singing fish - they have them at our local Thornton’s - you do NOT want to hear what he told me - it wasn’t pretty.
Gosh Missy, blush I like you too, <scrubs toe in dirt>
in a plutonic sort of way, of course.
(Don’t know about your Mister, but I’m scared of my Missus.)
And it’s one, two, three,
What are we fighting for ?
Don’t ask me, I don’t give a damn,
Next stop is Vietnam;
And it’s five, six, seven,
Open up the pearly gates,
Well there ain’t no time to wonder why,
Whoopee! we’re all gonna die.*
okay, here’s what I have the names narrowed down to:
**Harry
Ralph
Giant Freakish Catfish
Exhibit A
Eric
**
Any comments or suggestions? Gunslinger, that has to be one of the funniest skits ever. “Eric the Half Bee” shall be stuck in my head for the rest of the day.
And KimKat, as soon as I get the chance, I’ll send the picture. Thank you much for volunteering.
I recently saw the Halloween version of the singing fish: it was exactly the same except it was a fish skeleton and it also sang Monster Mash. Way cooler than the regular singing fish.
Also, at the same place they had a JAWS singing fish.

As for Jester’s stuffed fish: Your parents are nuts. Definitely name it Exhibit A. Or Ralph.
Click it! It’s linked to the explanation. Why do you think I went to the trouble of putting a link in it? (unless you did click it, and don’t get that…)
Sorry, should have included the page number. Thanks, KimKatt
Wouldn’t you know that, after an entire day of nothing to do, just as I find the ad on the 'net somebody would walk up with something that needs done NOW !!!
Maybe I should get my 17 year old daugher one for her birthday???
Especially if I tell her it’s name is either Wanda or Eric. she groks Monty Python.
Thanks for the Monty Python link!! I’ve been wanting to find one ever since my sister named her son Eric!!
She probably won’t ‘get it’, though. Maybe I’ll teach my nephew the song???
I got it, Balance. I just thought Kingfish would be more apropos. Wasn’t the Paul Newman movie about Huey Long “Blaze”? Focusing on Huey’s relationship with Blaze Starr? Or am I confusing two Paul Newman movies?
I’d just like to point out that of the five names making the finalist list, I suggested two of them. Thank you very much.
Still fishing for a copy of that fish picture. As soon as I land it, I’ll hook y’all up to see it. Jester may be in deep if we don’t get to see this picture soon…
Okay. I’m terribly sorry. I’ll stop with the lines now.
