Calvert FPD Wishes

To all, have a great “Fish Products Day!” While I won’t be attending, you are all in my prayers for a wonderful gathering. May you swallow each and every delight and savour the fellowship with those that do also.

--John Calvert, A Godfather of FPD, Dec. 5, 2005

PS Remember our motto. “Take that you chocoholics!!”

2005 Haiku

Suzy’s spotted dick
Franjione in shark suit
Things F.P.D.

--Marty Neal

Steve Who?

There once was a madman named Steve
Who was somewhat like Christopher Reeve;
Like Superman, the hotshot
Would eat things one should not --
That would make a more normal man heave.

--Anonymous

Nothing, save sweet ocean flesh

Can sate my desire
