Dennis Loves Fish


Dennis has a recurring dream in which a large fish is falling from the sky. Dennis tries to catch it but the fish always just evaporates the way things do in dreams.

Dennis has a favorite fish (Wild Alaskan Salmon.)

Do you have a favorite fish ?
Do you dream of fish?

Well...
I don't really have favorite fish...but I like chicken~~

wild salmon is the only kind worth anyone's attention.
freshly caught trout is nice too

(but Rollmops says he prefers herring and says good luck with the dream. Suggests you add water falling out of the sky along with the fish, the next time the dream shows up - that's if you can stand having water land on your fur along with the fish)

Dennis says the Grand Rebbe used to give Dennis herring, may he rest in peace. (and also Rollmops)

Favourite fish? Rainbow Trout. You just let it cook in the pan, no oil, a smidgen of pepper, a dash of lemon. Simmer, uncovered on med-low heat for pehaps twenty minutes. It'll fall right off the bone. Melt in your mouth. Haddock is a good runner-up.

The very same as Dennis that I've tried only once cause that costs an arm in France..

Arthur loves salmon !

Ed & Jeanne said...

VE loves wild Alaskan Salmon too...but unlike Dennis, Ve has been to Alaska to sample it there too.

Daisy said...

My favorite kind of fish is goldfish. I never tasted one though.

Deborah Godin said...

Dennis, keep dreaming that salmon dream, it's a keeper. Maybe one time it won't fade way; could happen.

p.s. Everybody here loves salmon, too - wild, tame, from coast to coast. And Sweeney ate the tail of a goldfish cracker once.

Megan said...

Salmon is my favorite, too. Although, I have not tried very many kinds of fish. My father makes a wicked good hollandaise.

That's a pretty strange dream, Dennis. I don't think I have ever dreamt of fish, but I sure might after today!

Subtorp is right -- trout! sounds delicious and easy enough for Dennis to cook.

No dreams of, but my fave is Southern fried Catfish. Uh oh! I didn't realize how that reads 'til I read it. Sorry, Dennis! It's just their name. They're not near as handsome as you, and they don't even blog. Nothin' like a real cat. (But, man, they sure taste good!;-)

I got flustered there and forgot to say, I love your dream illustration! Tense with pathos and longing.
And the style--say! You ain't kin to that Krazy Kat what used to be in the funnies, is you?

Does Dennis dream of electric fish?

Fish dreams are really sex dreams.

And sex dreams are really fish dreams.

What do you think the dream means, Dennis?

(I love dreams. I love hearing other peoples' dreams. Everyone seems to hate to hear dreams, but I am a dream listener.)

Elmo's favorite fish is tuna. Preferably packed in oil.

Bob doesn't do fish. He'd probably love to have a goldfish though. He loves to play in water.

My favorite fish was a goldfish I won as a prize at Canobie Lake Park when I was a kid. It was one of those simple carnival games in which I picked up rubber duck and won a prize. I named her/him, originally, Goldy. Godly was my very first pet. She lived for 4 years which is a long time for a fish.

After Goldy, I moved onto hamsters.
Henry. And then, Fluffernutter.

So, Dennis, tell me. What does your dream mean?

Baino said...

Hmmm; . . have a similar dream with men falling from the stars . . they just go 'poof' before they hit the ground!

Catlin said...

I like raw salmon and herring to eat and I love how all fish look. I once went fishing for piranhas. They don't look very nice.

I love salmon!
But my favourite fish is sea bass.
Or halibut.
Or maybe bream.

PS - thank you for that, kris. I'm now scared to go to sleep in case I dream of fish or sex!
