a moment of silence


Bill, the beta who has silently plotted my demise for over two years, has finally left us for the big fishbowl in the sky.
He will be remembered for his eerie way of watching people as they crossed the room, and the fidgety way he would swim around his little bowl.
Bill is survived by his older sister Gambit the cat, and his little sister Cosmic Creeper, also a cat.
After a short investigation, both cats were cleared of any involvement, and Bill's death has been ruled a suicide.
Mourners please omit flowers, but feel free to make donations in Bill's name to your local ASPCA.

I've never met anyone that has abused a fish so much that it wanted to commit suicide. I also have heard that humans are the only species that kills themselves. Thanks to Ravens relentless taping on the aquarium, I guess we are no longer alone in that category. FISH KILLER!!!!!!!

I can assure you, there was no tapping involved.
Bill loved to jump. To jump and feel the wind in his fins. This time, he just missed the bowl when he landed....
We should all admire his free spirit, and drink a merry toast in his honor.
