Take your video outfit and load your accessory bag with small change, your quest to find out what is really on the minds of those everyday people you'll meet today is about to begin. Makes a great gift.

First stop: say 'morning' to the little lady up the street there who walks her dog at the same time every day. Today though, you hand her a coin and a bit of advice: "I'm going to ask you about how your day is going. When I say 'what are you doing?', you say "Waiting for Fish!"

       People hanging out aren't by odds the lead dogs anyway [po], if you get my drift.
—reensure, Dec 16 2005
   

       I don't get you at *all* today. sorry, its probably me!   

       the woman walking her dog isn't just *hanging out* (not that I really understand that phrase anyway - seems to imply youths standing around on street corners)

       Does it have to be real fish? Or does this include a halfbaker who's just posted a lousy idea and is eagerly clicking the "Refresh" button?
