    I Have Made a Startling Discovery

    As I have been in the Navy longer and have become more senior I have been alloted more storage space on the ship. With more storage space I have found that there is more stuff that is essential for me to have with me with I get underway. This has lead me to the startling realization that I am actually a gold fish.

    Have you heard about the new corduroy pillows? They're making head lines!

    You damn well better send us some good stories. And save the great ones for later. I
    can't even imagine what you are going to do.

    While no one ever listens to me,
    I am constantly being told to be quiet.

    Yeah we tend to grow into the space we are given. When buying a new house, many people buy one they think is bigger than they need, but a few short years later they find all the rooms stuffed full.

    Thanks again for your continued service ltorlo64!!!!

    If your attention span has reduced significantly over time you might be a goldfish.

    That's like paychecks... your needs always grow to match your income.

    There is no real limit to the size a goldfish can grow. With adequate food and living space, a goldfish will grow for as long as it lives. Some can get to be 3 feet long or more.
