Sammy the Fish
That's the way we live happily
There was a fish, his name was Sam. His family came from the Hoover Dam. Once he was a little bitty guppy, just like a dog starts out as a puppy. When Sammy swims, Sammy sways with a swish. Cuz that's how you swim when you're a fish.
Sammy met a girl fish named Sue, who was the cutest little fish that Sammy ever knew. Sammy said "Sue will you be mine? Then we'll go swimming all the time." Sue said "yes" and gave Sam a little kiss, and a little later on there was another baby fish. They loved their fish and they named him Steve. But they knew one day he'd grow and leave.
That's the way it happens in the world. You get together and have a little boy or girl. You love your child and you set them free, and that's the way we live happily.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
