The fabled "Star of Gambusia", which was supposedly an amber
sapphire, sank into the depths of folklore about the same time as
Atlantis did. Scattered rumors of several sister gems have
persisted over the millenia, but their existence has never been
substantiated. If anybody claims to have one of these I would be
highly sceptical.

It makes me mad when I go to all the trouble of having Marta cook up about
a hundred drumsticks, and the guy at the Marineland says, "You can't throw
chicken to the dolphins. They eat fish." Sure they eat fish, if that's all
you give them. Man, wise up.
