I had the same experience as a kid; walking home from school; a gust of wind came up. I grabbed on to a tele pole. I swear my feet were in the air. It's unbelievable, but true.

Goldfish are delicate creatures. The Goldfish's
proper environment is a complex ecosystem that
must be perfectly balanced; this is only
obtained after a great deal of labor, a great
deal of added expense and sometimes heartbreak
too. If your goldfish is showing signs of
goldfish distress, of goldfish sickness,
goldfish disease or goldfish parasite infection,
try the least dangerous route first, making sure
you've done everything possible for your
goldfish before resorting to goldfish
medications. Typically, the root of the
goldfish's problem has to do with poor goldfish
water quality, stemmed from goldfish
overfeeding, improper goldfish water changes,
goldfish
filtering, or goldfish surface action. Learn
everything you can about goldfish care, so that
your goldfish will live a long and healthy
goldfish life.

£50 reward for the safe return of a pet goldfish
Staff at a Welsh pub are offering a £50 reward for the safe return of one of their pet goldfish.
The fish, called Mary, was scooped up in a pint glass in front of stunned customers and staff just before closing time at the Vulcan Lounge in Cathays, Cardiff.
The brazen fish-napper then simply walked out of the pub, with his unusual take-out in hand.
Mary and three other goldfish called Jesus, Kevin and Bubba had been resident in a converted ice bucket on the bar for the last six months and were considered 'part of the charm' of the student friendly venue in the Welsh capital.
Sadly Jesus had passed away earlier in the year, despite an earlier miraculous recovery that gave him his biblical name, and now the removal of Mary has apparently left Kevin and Bubba in a dejected state.
Staff have been unable to identify the culprit, despite CCTV footage showing the unknown man loitering around the tank before his audacious action. The rationale behind the theft is as yet unknown with student 'humour' being mooted as one possible reason but with no sign of a ransom note it's possible that the fish was taken with its long term welfare in mind.
The life expectancy of a common goldfish is well in excess of 15 years, but this longevity may be severely impacted upon by life in an ice bucket on the bar in a student pub. Despite this speculation, Mary's welfare and location remain unknown and as well as the reward the pub is offering a free meal to anyone with information as to her whereabouts.

LIFE GETS SLAMMED
Latest update: Life takes a loss at CATBOWLING when Venus comes in for the win in only seven games. Life has yet to comment.
ARCADE
Venus has once again beaten Life at arcade SNOWBOWLING with a high score of 6662. Life has yet to make a come back and has refused to comment. Venus is also victorious at DOLPHIN, and arrogantly defies anyone to beat her score of 192,651.
Life is the contender at CATBOWLING; her score of 105 untouchable for the time being. Venus has declared war and is determined to take the lead.
Vlly has taken a two point lead in FUNKYPONG. It doesn't look good for Venus.
Vlly also holds the title for CHICKEN SHOOTOUT. Rumor has it that Vlly only plays the game for the background music.
Venus is running a close second at CASTLE DEFENDER, but Vlly has managed to keep the lead.
Phillyn holds the title for AIR HEADS, and remains unchallenged. Phil states that his score would have been higher only he became board with the game.
Krisidus holds the championship for ZNAX 15600 with Life running a close second.
TUUFY gets the win at FAFSTREETRACER at 578.
