Name my fish, win a (cash!) prize

Give it to charity; dedicate a wing in my name at your local children’s hospital. K? K.

Either “Jasper” or “Fishy.”

Or Roy.
Did anyone say Elwood yet?
Just buy a whole school of fish and pick the best names from here, you guys have been coming up with some dandys.

I had an aquarium a couple of years ago with three fish. I should’ve named them:

Floater
Bellyup, and
Kevorkian

(The last fish jumped out and landed in my son’s toy box. It was a couple of days before I found him.)

Holy CRAP! I thought I was the only one who remembered that story! It’s Rikki-Tikki-Tembo-No-Sa-Rembo-Cheri-Beri-Buchi-Pip-Beri-Pembo. I think.

Ironic. IIRC, in the story, RTTNSRCBBPBP fell down a well.

I figger, just name it “fish.” It’s not like it’ll come when you call it anyway!

How about Meisterbrau (see the novel “Sewer, Gas, and Electric” by Matt Ruff)
