In order to prepare ourselves for biosphere-living, we have taken some live fish into our possession. You know the ones, "Alive without breath, as cold as death... all in mail never clinking" et cetera. Today we are trying to think of some names for the new arrivals. The "beta-fish" is Hale-Bopp (Bopp for short) and the scum-sucker of course is named Mr. Collins. I think "Tae" "Kwon" and "Do" work for the tiger barbs, but Mrs. W. wants something literary. "Sir" "William" and "Blake" weren't to her liking. The funniest thing about this is we are taking the most care in naming the three fish who look nearly identical.
Do you, faithful readers, have any suggestions?
Sometimes when I peruse this bloog. I feel as though I have trampled into many paged novella.
