A FISH has managed to survive being kept in an Iranian man's fridge for four days, state television reported.

According to the report, the fish flapped into life when a man in the western province of Hamedan prepared to gut it for dinner.

State TV showed the resilient fish swimming around in a big pot, and said the man now plans to release it back in the sea.

4. I had a fish that lasted five days in my refrigerator.

Flopped around the whole time. Tore up most of the insides, knawed threw the metal and ate everything in the freezer, except the ice cubes, then got into the vegitable ben and ate all of the vegitables except the mushrooms, and actually mushrooms aren't even a vegitable.

Its a "snake head" the experts told me just before it got away. The thing had been banging around in the frig for several days, then went silent, so I opened the door. Big mistake.

It lept out, going for my for my neck, but the bright kitchen light must have temporarly blinded it and I ducked aside as it flopped in the direction of a nearby stairway, down into the dark, dank basement.

I followed its slime trail to the floor-drain where it had somehow dislodged the metal cover and disappeared inside. I heard thrashing inside, and replaced the cover, welding it shut. Now it lives in my septic system.

For a while, before it got too big, sometimes in early morning, it would crawl up thru the sewer pipe and snap at me, like a moree eel. But now it can no longer get its head thru the toilet's airtrap, so I consider myself lucky not to be singing seprano.

5. You should call a plumber about that.

Could be you've invented a new septic eater there. Might never have to get that thing pumped out again... breakthrough of the century and all.
