Welcome to Mr. Fisch!

this is the part they don’t tell you in teaching school.  You can only learn it through the soles of your feet, as they say.  fortunately, it translates OK to parenting as well.  please enjoy, tell your friends.

The Asian jumping carp.  If you haven’t seen the video yet, go youtube it.  And keep your eyes open for its nom de market of ‘Kentucky Tuna’.  They feed low enough in the food chain to avoid mercury contamination.  Please enjoy.  And give me a contract.  But mostly enjoy.

Actually, this will take me a lot longer than a week. But this stuff writes itself. More and more recent fisch on facebook.

These gags pretty much write themselves. The two headed, quacking chihuahua is a Mr. Fisch showpiece. Enjoy.

I’m still recovering from travel, and realize the Genetic Engineering strips could use an airing. This one’s out of order, but funny enough to open with. Enjoy.

This is how it feels to suggest almost any sort of practical conservation to kids (and some grownups)

This stuff practically writes itself, nay, it’s already written. This so closely approximates a conversation I’ve had so many times that it’s hardly satire. Between the crappy breakfast and thinking a 20 minute shower is yours by right, we are not doing well by future generations.

My students look at me like I have three heads when I try to teach them about any sort of practical conservation. Whatever happens, giving kids an ‘energy head’ is the place to start. But we’re speaking different languages, so it has to be made cool first, and that has to be done by the Media Machine, not lone, well intentioned teachers.

What I love most about this strip is the third panel, which exactly reflects how I felt when the pun, small as it is, clicked for me.

I always have conniptions when students (or grownups) squander hot water. It’s not the energy savings at the moment, possibly trivial compared to total use, as much as the lack of thought.
