    Like white on a Klansman.

    Fishheads, fishheads

    Yummy yummy fishheads

    Fishheads, fishheads

    Barnes & Barnes.  With Billy Mumy (“Will Robinson”) from “Lost in Space,” yes?

  5. My Thesaurusss says:

    We only wish to phage an ichthy, so juicy-sweet.

  6. That would be: roly-poly fishheads.  Let’s get it right, folks.

    Laughing happy fishheads in the morning.

    In the evening, fish-head soup.

  7. For any that care, that blockquote isn’t right.  But it’s the way I remember it, dammit.

  8. Beck says:

    I’ve always been a huge fan of “defenestrate.” Can’t say why.  Or how that’s relevant.  Just thought I’d share.
