According To Joe-part 1

My brother Joe is Terrific! Not unlike so many of us in the Tullis clan, he sees things a little differently.

Joe is currently in possession of a Japanese fighting fish. A fish that he doesn't particularly want.
Further more; he named this fish Sandy. Not the ideal moniker for a tough sounding species like "Japanese fighting fish".

Here's the deal. Joe will probably own this fish for the duration of the average fish life span because he is unable to perform an type of euthanasia. He pines over pet ownership on an hourly basis and can be heard muttering "I don't even want this fish" or "dammit, I have to clean Sandy's bowl".

Why does Joe even have a fish, and what could have transpired to lead to such an unwanted partnership, one may ask.

Well according to Joe-They should never put a pet shop next door to a bar.

Bwahaha! I did not expect that ending. Although I probably should have!

It could be worse, it could have been a Humane Society next to the bar, and he could currently be the adoptive parent of a blind and incontinent Great Dane with hip dysplasia and irritable bowel syndrome.
