Original Commentary
Isabel wrote this one. She has killed a few goldfish when she was younger - in her defense, they were carnival prizes, and those things aren't really designed for longevity. Really, as long as they last until you leave the carnival, that's all that's important to the average carney. She's nervous about pets and yes, I have had to check to make sure our kitten was breathing a few times - Terrence

Modern Commentary
I'm glad they didn't have the "You can keep him, but he's your responsibility" discussion. That never works out. - Terrence
