] Customers at the Sky Port diner near Schenectady came up
] with the idea of a creating a fish sling after Dick the
] goldfish fell ill in November and had difficulty swimming.
 . . .
] To remedy Dick's swimming problem, several customers
] devised a sling made up of fishing bobbers, drinking
] straws, gauze and string. When the 8-inch-long fish is
] placed in the sling, he's able to swim like normal.

Okay, *now* I've heard everything.
