00:01 by FoxTwo I had a nice romantic dinner date with Daphne and xinyun slated for tonight. Then, xizor volunteered to be the bright spotlight, so he came along too.
Hahah ok I'm kidding. We met for dinner, cos xinyun wanted to show me a nice place with great brownies (I know I know, fattening!). The food is not too bad, and the price, pretty darn cheap, considering its location. The price printed on the menu is what you pay for the food. No extras, no cess, no service charge, nada.
Ok, enough about my dinner with 2 amazing ladies and one spotlight.
The interesting thing is that we noticed an upside-down goldfish swimming in a fishtank near the restaurant. It's not dead, it's not dying. It's just upside down. Proof? Watch the short video below:
Sorry for the lousy quality of the video. I didn't bring my real camera out, and only had my handphone with me. Yeah I know, 3GP videos on handphones suck. Well, at least the goldfish is visibly upside down and alive.
xinyun was saying that she'd seen this a month or so ago, and it was also upside down back then. So either the fish came from Australia, or from India (since heroes in Indian movies take a heck of a long time to die).
Ok, I'll see if it's still alive next month or so, if I ever pass by that place again.

It is upside down because an air bubble is trapped in one of his internal organ (can't remember which one).
It is not dying, but may lose a lot of energy from trying to catch its food while upside down.
One way to solve this is so throw the fish into a deeper aquarium or pond where if it swims deep enough, the water pressure will cause the air bubble to escape.
That's what my brother told me :D -
precious - OooO the mystery is finally solved! I should tell xy! :D
