How Kipper the catfish burnt the house down Kipper proved an all-too-apt name for the catfish thought to have started the fire by splashing water from his aquarium onto sockets below. The creature perished in the flames.
It's just so easy to blame the victim, which in this case is the hapless and burnt catfish, rather than our own stupidity at leaving a splashing bowl so close to an electrical outlet!

Is that the best you can do on this story, Mr. Fun? Sheesh! I half-expected comebacks of a nicely cooked delicacy, or something similar.
Just wait until Blacksmith comes by. :wink:

I don't like my catfish that well burnt. I'll just have a glass of tea and a blt.

Say, Edgar, if you were to cook a catfish, would you use the shortcut method of throwing 'em into a frypan, or do you prefer the longer fishtank process?
Enquiring minds need to know!

Sounds yummy. By the way, you don't give it a name or anything before you cook 'em up, do you?
That reminds me, we just had odd cod the other night.

Something finny's going on alright. The scales of justice will soon weigh out the truth though!

If they nail the right culprit, somebody will soon be singing a different tuna.
This was clearly no accident. It was done on porpoise!
