Fishmonger??

What the heck is a fishmonger?? That is a question that has been circling my head for at least a week now. For those of you who are Survivor fans you will know what I am talking about...for those of you who aren't, you're missing out (just come by our house on Thursday nights at 9 and we will fill you in! o, and you might want to bring a bible when you come!) Anyways, back to fishmongering...a fish eater? a fish wrestler? a fish counter?? a fish killer?? someone who hoards fish in their home?? a hard core fisherlady? After coming up with endless possibilies I finally gave in and looked in a dictionary (probably something that I haven't done for years!) and was dissapointed to find out that a fishmonger is merely someone who sells fish. She works in a fish market??! There you have it. Although, I think I am still going to picture her as a fish wrestler...that's way more fun!!

Hey Amanda!
Here's to you, Mrs. Robinson!! (yeah, you've heard it before I am sure!).
Welcome back to cyberspace...I kinda forgot you had a blog and then went and looked it up...so here I am...yay!
The whole fishmonger thing cracked me up. I didn't think they existed anymore - except on Survivor! Unfortunately I missed the 2nd week of this new one, and we didn't even get to tape it!!
Do you remember (or did you learn) that song, "Molly Malone" - well she was a fishmonger (that's how I know the word).

Anyways, Congratulations! I will check in here more often to see what's on the go with you!!
(if you wanna check up on me it's: www.xanga.com/merry_hanukkah7 )

take care!
Hey, we sent you something in the mail...well I sent it from Canada when I was there...hope it got there safely!
Oh yeah...and we MAY be in Calgary-town at the end of November...perhaps we can meet for some tea and chitchat??

Later!!
All the best,
