The Rockfish Mug

We gave Kevin the following mug for his birthday so he isn't deprived of his quad americano in the morning...



Rockfish

Rockfishes (Sebastes sp.) are a diverse group of marine fishes with species inhabiting couches in and around the Puget Sound area with some individuals traveling as far North as Whistler, BC.

General description: Adult rockfishes typically describe themselves as pear shaped with pipe cleaner arms and legs but can range in size, depending on the time of year, from six-pack to beer-gut. These fish are characterized as tardy and have poor planning skills but will readily participate in activities planned by others. They are not considered a ‘catch’ but do have a great sense of humor, often tending toward the politically incorrect. Being a fish, they prefer liquid-based activities such as wakeboarding and drinking heavily and avoid soil-based activities such as mountain biking or landscaping.

Food habits: Rockfish feed on a variety of food items consisting primarily of entire large pizzas, schnitzel, rolls that have been licked by someone else, squeezable ketchup, and Corona.
