A man went to a fish restaurant for dinner.  When the waiter came to take his order, he asked whether the fish were fresh.  The waiter assured him that they were.   Shortly after the waiter brought him his meal, the man placed his face close to the fish and whispered to them.  He stopped and whispered again.  He stopped and whispered once more.  Naturally, the diners all stared at him and wondered what was going on.  The waiter came over and politely asked him what he was doing.  “I’m speaking with the fish,” he said.  “I asked them how things were in their world and they responded that all was well.  They said that they were swimming in butter and cream.  I then asked them from where they came and they said that they came from the Atlantic.  So I asked them what’s new in the Atlantic.  They told me that they don’t know what the last news is because they left the Atlantic three weeks ago.”
