Gentle ribbing isn't your strongest point, is it? :blink:

Yeah! Don't hold back, Fishmaniac. :grr:

Otocinclus are beautiful! I love them intensely - but that doesn't alter the fact that corydoras are real characters. They are like retired majors sent back from India on half-pay, who spend their time snuffling port and nuts and reminiscing about the lost Empire and complaining about the...

You are a monster! A MONSTER!!! Corydoras are little armoured piscine delights

Don't get female guppies unless you have an outlet for the millions of babies you will end up with! You will be amazed at how quickly they breed.

Welcome back! I was the same - gap of decades - then you restart and it's like you never stepped away . . . :lol:

The Little Big Horn all over again. The only survivor is a (sea)horse . . .

Nah! Just me working my ticket . . . :lol:

Doo-wop, doo-wop, dooooo-wop . . . bee-bop, bee-bop :D

Some of Meatloaf's music is very good for keeping you awake when you are driving. Cohen is just wonderful - though I was very disappointed with his "New Skin for the Old Ceremony" - wasn't very Cohen-y at all. Not even like his voice, never mind his music. How do you stand on Manhattan...

It's terrifying that someone like him holds so much influence over the country. Malice, intelligence, arrogance and power are a bad mix. But this is what people get when they vote for politicians and choose style over substance. However, I don't want to either derail this thread, or get...

Our priest's brother went to school with him. He was a vicious, lying, malevolent, vindictive bully who thought the rules didn't apply to him. No surprises there, then. BTW - our priest is lovely and never speaks ill of anyone, but for him she makes the exception (And the area dean...

To Scummings?

We'll have to agree to differ. I'm a Leonard Cohen and Meatloaf girl, myself.

Hear, hear. Real and terrifying - especially for the young.

Many many years ago I had guppies in a goldfish tank (I was given them). I found a goldfish choking as it attempted to swallow a guppy head first. It was too big and was stuck. It took some getting out of the goldie's mouth, but remarkably both fish survived. I thought I might save to goldie...

Which means we have an even greater responsibility t treat them kindly. We have altered them in away which makes them highly unlikely to be able to survive if they were released into the wild; they are doubly dependent upon us. They have nothing else. There is NEVER an excuse for cruelty to a...

I hope that's supposed to be a joke . . . :mad:

People do this? My God - that's just brutal! I wouldn't do it to anything - not even Demonic Scummings!

Would agree, Phoenix. Every living creature deserves as good a life as we can give it, if we choose to assume responsibility for it. They are totally dependent upon us for EVERYTHING - and neglect ing them is akin to torture.

Better than the Beatles - I doubt they've released anywhere near 2 hours of decent music - singly or as a group - in their entire careers! I can't think of anyone more over-hyped, and that includes the Kardashians. Absolute rubbish!

Entrees? Is Colin judging the deliciousness of each entry?

I read this and I thought "BRUTAL" - than I realised that you had actually given some excellent advice to help Phoenix take even better photos of his beautiful fish. I hope he isn't demoralised by you post, and can see that it is actually a very positive one.

Congratulations, Phoenix - glorious fish! Well done!

I'm not allergic to anything as far as I know. But oranges give me migraine.

If EVERYBODY was Kung Fu fighting, I would have expected more broken furniture. But I admit that "Some people were kung fu fighting while the others just watched the Emmerdale Omnibus and had a cup of tea" would be a bit hard to fit into the songline.

Makes their photofit pictures in the police stations quicker to put together though.

G_R_O_A_A_A_N! (I luffs a good pun! :rofl:)

Don't apologise. We have all been the victims of the Demon Autocarrot!!!

No they aren't they are little sweethearts :angel: - they act out because society doesn't give them a break, and forces them into a role. If you treat them with love and respect they will blossom into their True Nature, which is one of caring and helpful members of fishly society. They are...

That's actually lovely! Were they smiling? Our kuhli had a lovely smile.

If you will stick them on a chain gang . . .

STOP HOLDING ME RESPONSIBLE FOR THE THINGS I SAY AND DO!!! I WON'T HAVE IT, I TELL YOU! I WON'T HAVE IT!!! :mad::mad::mad:

Depends if you get away with it.

Cardinals are dignified and wise . . .

They settle for being homicidal.

I like lady bettas, too. They are sweet.

When I got the e-mail alert, I KNEW this would be you! I suppose because of their shape you use them as a plate, and just pile the chips on top? ;)

I'm 67 - but I can pass for 18 in certain lights (infra-red, mainly, as long as all other lights are off and I am in almost complete darkness). Do I count as a"cool girl"?

Bless you!
