All-you-can-eat-shrimp. Fresh cat fish trout

  • All-you-can-eat-shrimp. Fresh cat fish trout perch grouper Todays special - buffalo eel. We know fish. Honest scales. Welcome! Grady looked at the Fishwife. She looked at him.
  • Grady looked at the Fishlad. The Fishlad looked at his girlfriend. His girlfriend brandished a large knife. The Fishlad looked at Grady. "OK, the buffalo eel then. Is it Japanese?"
  • The Fishwife swiped her knife across a wet stone. "T'was crafted by Hattori Hanzo." Grady gulped. "I m-meant the eel..." He tried to sneak by the Fishlad, but slipped on a Turbot.

    Ambika, thanks for "A Surfeit of Lampreys"! That sounds like the kind of fake book title I like to throw into a story, but in this case, I googled it and saw that it's a real book!

    Yes! Thank you for the reminder, as I have added her works to my mountainous stacks of the to-be-read. It was also an historical reference to the presumed cause of Henry I's death. Public Service Announcement: Always consume lampreys in moderation, if ever.

    I recall seeing an old black-and-white photograph of a fish shop that inspired my starter fold. Thanks for making it into a smacking good fishtale!

    BlastedHeath, I like to believe that nicknames should be determined by the collective. The full username should be Gedankenexperiment (German for 'thought experiment'). Take away from that what you like. =D Also thanks, I was feeling particularly purple and I needed to relieve the pressure.
