Public advised not to put salmon in their armpits
A spokesman from the Department of Health Scares has advised the public to think twice before clenching salmon under their armpits as it may make them ill. The spokesman indicated that the problem is mainly to do with farmed salmon but hinted that salmon living in the city may also be an issue.

The salmon industry immediately hit back at the claims. The President of the Salmon Producer's Guild, Douglas Ramsbottom, paraded his young daughter in front of the media with a salmon firmly wedged under each arm.

6. You must have a huge bathtub.
Or maybe a river. I would never take a salmon into the shower with me.

My burning question: did the salmon like it?

I only hope you respect each other in the morning.

11. I will also not take duct tape and plastic wrap into the shower.
Unless it is to subdue the salmon.

18. OK, so if you go to bed with a spawning salmon
does that make the phrase

" Sleeps with the fishes "

preverted, redundant, ironic or only half right

since it's the salmon that dies from coming to/in bed with you ?

What happens if it's more than two females in a roe ?

If it gets really hot & heavy does the salmon end up smoked ?
