My friend's goldfish Sam just turned 18 years old! He got a lotto ticket and extra peeled green peas to celebrate.

This fish has now survived 18 years, umpteen moves back and forth between home and college, 4 years of dorm life, and an extended road trip/move from Chicago to LA! :blink:

It would scare you if you knew how old a goldfish of mine would be if I had bought it in college. Scares the heck out of me! :yikes:

OMG! Hmmmmmm, wonder if you have to count fish years like dog years? Got any pics?

I had a toy poodle that lived to be 18. She was bought for my 10th birthday and we buried her when I was 28! She was left behind with my mom when I moved off to college at the ripe old age of 7, so my mom had her longer than I did.

Four weeks is a long-time to go without a functioning microwave. This is why I resisted a built-in! I

Fortunately, it got fixed today. Squirt can now successfully feed himself again. :clap:

She doesn't mind the phone either. As you can see by the different shirts, it is not an uncommon sight.

Why would I suspect that SWGB has already had Five Nut Brownies? :scratch:
Reminds me of a dirty joke.:lol:

Is that a beagle? They said that after the beagle won Westminster, the popularity of the breed would skyrocket. Cute dog.

Their fur gets stuck in my teeth. I like brownies.
Reminds me of another dirty joke.:lol:

Couldn't let the fish question pass. After much extensive googling (2 minutes) the best I could do was a guppy. At 270 years to the human year that would make the gold fish 4,860 years old, give or take a century. :D
