16. That deserves a response simply for its cleverness.
(if DU chose to come out of the stone age and make some relevant smilies available, I'd have one for you).

11. LOLOL - don't tell me you're STILL catching a ration of shit

That was like 2 days ago dude.

Just be glad you didn't shoot Bambi. I got accused of that once.

14. The bottom fish - looks like a fish. huh? Is that Mahi Mahi?
Or Mahi is something else?

I don't know my fish from my water dwelling other things.

Are you sure the bottom guy is not a tuna?

19. Am I guilty of Flipper Murder if I eat Starkist?
I never really believed the "dolphin safe" labels...

But me loves some chunk light tuna. (I don't know why, but the one time I bought albacore tuna, it tasted so dang nasty that I have refused to touch it ever since.)

And why on earth do they sell tuna in oil??? I like tuna not just because it tastes yummy, but because it's high in protein and low in fat. Oil defeats the purpose (porpoise?).

32. That's why we call the fish "mahi mahi"
I saw dolphin on a menu in Fla. years ago and completely freaked out!

Also, if there are any Tongans around, be sure to say "mahi mahi" rather than just "mahi", which in Tongan means women's unmentionables!
