Talking Goldfish: Backwards Bob


I just saw Bob, my talking goldfish, fiercely spinning backwards around his bowl about ten times. “What’s the matter, Bob?” I asked. He replied, “I sneezed.”

Talking Goldfish: Broadway Bowl

I asked Bob, my talking goldfish, what is his favorite Broadway musical? He told me, “South Pacific.” When I asked him why, Bob replied, “I just love that wonderful song, ‘Salmon Chanted Evening.’”

Talking Goldfish: Jump to It

Bob, my talking goldfish, just asked me to put a trampoline, a driving licence and a passport in his bowl. When I said "What for?" he replied, "I just want to bounce around a few IDs."

Talking Goldfish: No Tanks

I just asked Bob, my talking goldfish, if he would like to upgrade his bowl to a tank. He replied, "No, a tank's no use to me. I'm a pacifist."

Talking Goldfish: Goldfish Gift


Bob, my talking goldfish, wants a GPS for his fishbowl. I asked him, "Why?" Bob replied, "In case I get lost in here."

Talking Goldfish: Chat Worthy


Bob, my talking goldfish, is too busy to have a chat right now. He's on Fishbook.

Talking Goldfish: Water, Water


Bob, my talking goldfish, just asked me for a glass of water. "Are you thirsty, Bob?" I inquired. "No, " he replied. "I've got hiccups."

Talking Goldfish: Pet Peeves


Bob, my talking goldfish, just asked me if he could have a female clam as a pet. "Sure, " I said. "What are you gonna call it?" Bob replied: "Michelle."

Talking Goldfish: Inner Circle


Bob, my talking goldfish, says he can't get anything done today. He feels as though he's going round in circles.

Talking Goldfish: Fish Security


Bob, my talking goldfish, just got a grant from the Dept of Homeland Security for his bowl. No AlQuaeda terrorists in his aquarium!

Talking Goldfish: Voice Lessons


I'm trying to teach Bob, my talking goldfish, to say "Obama." So far, he can only say "Ob." I guess being a Tennessean goldfish, he refuses to say "Bama."

Talking Goldfish: Whether Weather


Bob, my talking goldfish, gave me a weather forecast this morning. He says its going to be wet all over.
