Who loves fish the most? (from the Leo Journal)

Looking at one of the mammoth fish tanks at Butterfly, the Chinese restaurant on Farmington, Leo says, “Let’s count by hearts who loves fish the most.”

Mike: “OK, I guess for me, two hearts.”

Leo: “Yeah, for me about 1,000 hearts.”

Let’s count by hearts. As if ‘hearts’ were a currency or a unit of measurement. 

Also, although he’s a boy, he was so mercifully young when he said this that hearts hadn’t been segregated yet to the girls-only section of interests. 

While Mike lowballs it with “two hearts,” Leo, living high on the hog, goes for broke: 1,000 hearts. 

He must really like little fishies!

And we have a winner.
