04/02-2005¨19:46¨¨Once upon a time there was a young girl named Nini.  Nini was 11 years old and lived in Glasgow.  While walking home from school one day, a Blue Fish jumped out from behind a Rummy and tackled Nini to the ground.  But just when she was about to let out a scream for help, Nini realized that the Blue Fish was only licking her face, not trying to bite it off.  At that moment, Nini decided to keep the Blue Fish as a pet.  And on the way home she decided to name her pet Blue Fish ''Julie.''  When Nini and her new pet finally got home, guess who was standing on the front porch?  That's right, it was Nini's mother, Kamiljit.  And boy was she surprised to see a Blue Fish following Nini into the yard!  ''What in world is that?'' shouted Kamiljit.  ''It's a Blue Fish,'' answered Nini.  ''Dah, I can see that, Nini, but what on earth is it doing here?'' said Kamiljit.  ''It's my new pet!'' answered Nini.  ''Oh you think so do you?'' remarked Kamiljit.  ''I wouldn't get your hopes up. You know how your father hates Blue Fishs.  But, well, I suppose you can keep him until your father comes home.''  And with that Nini grabbed Julie by the scruff of the neck and led her new pet into the house--even though she knew her father was probably going to disapprove.  Once in the house, Nini and Julie played and played, that is until Nini's favorite television show, ''The Simpsons,'' started.  At that point Nini forgot all about Julie having an unsupervised run of the house.  That is until half way through ''The Simpsons,'' when Nini was brought back to reality when she heard her father shout, ''Rage!!  Nini! Get your  in the Living Room...NOW!!''  With that Nini rushed into the Living Room to see what all the fuss was about.  When she entered the Living Room, there stood her father, Bhupinder, pointing toward the Cushion.  ''Will someone please explain that?'' asked her father.  Then, as Nini followed her father's finger to where it was pointing, she instantly knew what her father was so upset about.  There, smack dab in the middle of the Cushion, was the biggest pile of Fish doo-doo she had ever seen!  ''I don't EVEN want to know how that got there,'' said Bhupinder.  ''But you had better get it cleaned up now!  And you had better get rid of whatever it is that could have done such a thing!''  Well, knowing her father as well as she did, Nini knew there was no sense even asking her father if she could keep Julie for a pet.  So without hesitation, Nini set out to find where Julie was hiding.  After a few minutes of looking, Nini discovered Julie crouched beneath the table that Nini did her Football on.  ''Come on, Julie, it's time to find you a new home.  And hey, don't look at me that way, I'm not the one who did the dirty deed on the Cushion!'' scolded Nini.  ''Thanks to you I'll never get to have my own pet Fish!!  And with that Nini led Julie out of the house and down to the local Cost-U-Less.  They had a pet section and Nini knew the owner would find Julie a good home.  So after saying good-bye to Julie, and thanking the owner of Cost-U-Less, Nini walked backed home and attempted to drown her sorrows by slamming down a half dozen s.  But Nini's pity party came to an abrupt end when her father reminded her about the mess she had neglected to clean up.  And low and behold, midway through the clean-up, Nini suddenly became thankful that someone else was going to have to do it from now on.  The End.¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
