Kenny's taken over feeding the fish in our new/old aquarium.

He remembers the ritual from the old tank in Japan, first smelling the food (I had him smell it once so that he wouldn't try to eat it) then adding the smallest pinch, then watching the fish eat. When they don't leap on the food, he exclaims, "not eating!"

Well, someone once told me that life is divided in three parts: at first, you have time and inclination but lack money. Then, you have money and inclination but lack time. Finally, you have money and time but lack inclination. :-)
