Welcome, er, Fishcycler. I cannot beLIEVE we now have a thread as a...a...oh heck, a post-er! Geez, mon, she said crabbily. (Ref. Disney's Little Mermaid.)

Who's hooked who?
There's something fishy about this whole thing, I think.

Group name for fish on bikes: well, I like the word pool, esp. if the fish are carp==carpool. The two in the lead would display their motto on a banner: carpe diem.

if I saw many fish go by on bikes I would probably call it a miracle

Here on the seeboard polluted for donkey's years by the outpourings from Sellafield, this counts as an almost everday occurrence. Still, there used to be even more radioactive sludge in the water; now they've been forced to clean up a bit, hence the new sign advertising

Hi Jackie,

Would a bunch of flying fish be a poolover?
That's a bit hairy.

I haven't seen Disney's Little Mermaid.
Does she ride a bike?
It would have to be side-saddle, I suppose.

P.S. Carpe diem - love it!

Why, what's wrong with the insurance that Anna sells?
Do you know something I don't?

Wouldn't want you showing up at my door to sell insurance.

Well, actually, I do have some beachfront property in southern North Dekota (at Hoople) I could sell you for a song.....

Thanks anyway Anna, but when I was down in Florida last weekend I was offered some nice beachfront property in the everglades. Somewhere called Deltona Leech, I’m told.
And in New York, I’m told there is this Golden Gate Bridge to be bought for a song...Bach, I think I’ll just stay home.
