As you may recall, our pet goldfish answers to the no-frills yet functional name “Fish.”
Which is highly appropriate, considering that from the moment he first arrived here in TRLEOOB* over five years ago, he (by tacit agreement, it was decided that Fish is a “he”) has been living in what could charitably be called a no-frills yet functional aquarium – i.e. a cheap plastic container with jagged holes in the lid.
Yet lest you feel sorry for Fish and accuse us of animal cruelty, I should note that in spite of our best efforts and the benign neglect he has endured thanks to our tender, loving care, he actually seems to have thrived in his modest abode.
But last night, in honor of Pesach, Fish, um, moved a house (if you’ll excuse my Heblish).
And while admittedly, his larger and brighter new home – like his old one - is just a simple plastic container, at least it’s not as cheap and has smooth, round holes on top:
!חג כשר ושמח
The entire Our Shiputzim staff wishes all our readers a very happy and kosher Pesach.
May we all be privileged to eat in rebuilt Yerushalayim from the zevachim and from the pesachim, speedily and in our days. Amen.

His new accommodations are practically luxurious! Chag sameach.
ReplyDeleteMiI - Yeah, it's like the Herzliyah Pituach of plastic containers... :-) Moadim l'simchah!
