I got my first two corns within the last 3 weeks. Until I figure out how I'm gonna buy my feeders in bulk, I've been buying the Mice on Ice pinkies. (I know, they're very expensive- 10.00 for 6). Anyway, the Petco a few blocks from my house hasn't had any frozen foods because their freezer was down. I stopped there today and they had a fresh shipment. I was about to buy the Mice on Ice when I noticed large bags of pinks, fuzzies and hoppers. The pinks were on sale for 1.00 each. Still expensive but cheaper than the others. I asked this kid to help me, told him I needed 10 pinks. He proceeds to get two fish bags,puts one on his hand (says he's afraid to pick them up barehanded), then counts out 10 and puts them in the other fish bag. What,he did next cracked me up, he blew into the bag and then quickly sealed it with a rubber band as if he was bagging fish to "keep oxygen in the bag". I looked at him and started laughing. After a minute or so he realized what he had done and said "oh yeah, they're dead already".

Pinky's taste nice,only if there fresh..
I posted this before but I'll do it again 
Went to the petstore to get some frozen feeder pinks for my lovely new corn. Now these guys at the pet store don't know animals but they still work a pet shop (go Figure). Anyway there was a kid working there a little younger than me and I asked if I could have some pinkys, he replied "sorry we don't sell human fingers".... I was cracking up and was laughing so hard I could have laughed my heart up or something. Then a lovely looking girl asked "do you mean baby mice?" I said yes miss and she got me some from the freezer. Whats hilarious is that she didn't even worked there.
The girl working there asked me if there was a "special way to thaw them out to bring them back to life." I almost died
BTW - we do exhale oxygen, just less then inhale...
Later
All of those stories are HILARIOUS!!!! Simply too funny.
