A good friend is out there now. I shall ask her if she has been hit by any falling fish.

A waiter once asked whether we wanted anchovies with a Cesar Salad.

It is not a Cesar Salad without it, by golly.

Just not on pizza. Cooking them seems to do something bad to the poor little fishies.

That's why I order the anchovies on the side so I can add them to the already-baked pizza.
