I can't believe that your grandmother wouldn't want knowledge of the Italian language passed on to her descendants. My experience has been the opposite, i.e. Italians who immigrate here want their children to speak the language and pass it on to their grandchildren. So, I'll say it's false.

I dated a guy whose mother had a chinchilla hamster. That was the softest animal I have ever felt!

[Shattered]

1 tank had a Betta.
1 tank had a Puffer that didn't know how to deflate, so was always stuck at the top of the tank (I named him Bubble).
1 tank with 6 neon tetra's (1 large, 5 small - named Twiggy, Steve, Steve, Steve, Steve, and Steve) <-- I was drunk.
1 tank with 3 Oscars named Grouch, Oscar, and Pigpen. (Messy fish that liked to overturn things in the tank).
1 tank with a Pleco, and 25 African Cichlids (only named the Electric Blue - named him Asshole because he slowly ate everything else, including the Pleco which was 6" larger than he was).
