I was referring to the fact we in New England would jab at the Miami Dolphins football team when the Patriots would play them. We would spout the slogan "Squish The Fish!"
"I know it's a mammal, but why is it here?"
"Myx, WHALE SONG is a fine book written by my friend, Cheryl Kaye Tardif--and don't you dare start about people with 3 names!"
"Why the bear, Dave?" Myx asked with a tone that made me uneasy.

Nice Blog Dave!

I can't go without my fix of Myx for the week. Great Myx Travels. Nice to see Myx has a new friend. Cool
