Jer22,1988 when the goldfish go belly up by Kevin Cowherd Baltimore evening Suni t was Early in the morning when i received word that Goldie and Sivvie had gone to that big fishbowl in the sky. Dad the goldfish Aren t swimming one of the kids said. Of course they re swimming j said. It s like the poet said Birds gotta Fly fish gotta swim. Now let daddy go Back to sleep and i la give you Lols of money.". The room was quiet for iwo minutes. Then the children returned we h another bulletin if a fish were indeed swimming they were doing a real Stow Bach stroke. This Lime no amount of Money would make the kids leave the room. So we All went downstairs to thelis bowl. ,. And sure enough the fish weren t swimming. In act the ish weren t doing much of anything. They were sort of floating at opposite ends of he bowl completely ignoring each other. This i recognized As a bad sign it meant one of two wings. Either the iwo fish were becoming incompatible in which Case we needed a new fishbowl or they had bought the farm in which Case we had a spare fishbowl. Frankly i was leaning toward door no. 2, because the Lish were showing absolutely no enthusiasm. So now it became a question of How to break the news to the kids. I mean How do you Tell them their Little fish buddies have chocked out and will never again swim monotonously around in circles the Lish croaked did l they said my. Son kicked the bucket i  re history pushing up daisies. It s Davey Jones locker for. These iwo."1 the kids got the. Idea. Say what you want about the stale of education in this country. But when kids see fish floating belly up you won t slump them with a round of what s wrong Wilh this picture i Mysell had mixed emotions about the sudden demise of the goldfish. -. They were sort of a pain in the neck if you want to know the truth my son had won them at he state Lair after spending Hafl my paycheck. Tossing a Ping Pong Ball into some Lis bowls one Listi was Gold the other Silver Soris named them go Lido and Sime which 1 thought was a Nice touch. A. At least he did t go with any of these new wave fish names Moon unit or Ambrosia something like that no. It was Goldie and Silvie. Solid respectable All american fish names. But Lei me Tell you something Aboul winning goldfish at the fair be prepared to keep reaching for your Wallet. Because they hand you the Lish in a plastic bag. Filled with water. ". So now you have to buy a bowl for the Lish. And Lood for the Island tablets to purify the water for the fish. And goofy Iii tie decorations Lor the Bottom of he bowl hobbies and plastic Moss and stuff so a does t think he s living in some sort of fish tenement in the South Bronx. Expense Wise in is like being responsible for Flipper at least that s the Way i Felt. Bui of course the Guy Al the stale Bir did t mention i d have to see a pawnbroker to keep these Lish alive. No wonder a had that evil Grin. On his face As we walked away. Lei me Ell you something else Ebous goldfish they Are not exactly the most affectionate Little. Critter around ,. Our goldfish did t say a word in the three months we had them. In act. They hardly looked at me the whole time i d walk by their bowl and wave nothing. Morning boys i d say cheerfully. Nothing. It was like three months of the silent treatment. And you can forget about tricks too. These goldfish they Don t fetch hey Don t jump through hoops and they Don t Roll Over uni Al s too late i you catch my Drill. It s like having an iguana As a pet. But at least with an iguana he might get lost and turn up Over ache neighbors maybe stir up a Little.  i practically begged these goldfish to take a walk on me. Sorgat it. I was was Ling my Bre Alfi. 1. Anyway the kids were pretty broken up about , attest Enlil the pee wee Merrian. Show name on. -.\. But we did have a Little fish funeral Lor Goldie and Silvie. We buried them Over by the  Ros Bushes which seemed fitting to me since the Ros Bushes had More personality than those stupid Tish.
