    Heck, I had never heard of any fish related to God, expect maybe those that Jesus dished up way back when, until Leof pulled it out of his bag... expect no help from me

    Leof can buy an aquarium fish and name it God's Fish. As such, the word combination would be truthful.

    No! It should be exotical Japanese meal - a piece of half-cooked fish without any sensible taste and 1000$ cost per portion!
    Я так думаю.

    My avitar is a Cod fish...
    I asked an old-timer commercial fisherman about this. He said the meaning he knew of was when you caught a better species of fish than you were trying to get. If you set out to get scup @ $1 per pound and got flounder @ $3 a pound at the dock, they were "God's fish". He also asked me where I came up with all these strange (yet entertaining) questions.
    I'm easily amused late at night...

    Upon a whole,( ) that's more than I could expect and it is very curious fact indeed! Thank you DDT. I think when Charles said that he didn't mean the fishery, anyway...I'm going to e-mail to Oxford they to decide and reply me what for God's fish's sake the God's fish is!?!

    What in God's fish are you all talking about?

    Why don't we all start using the expression and bring it back to life?

    I'm in, but first we have to decide what it means... or have we already?

    Я так думаю.

    Cod fish is the only spelling variant I know. But I could be ignorant just as soon.

    Oder = or. It's German, and I know the lang.

    well eventually it might change its spelling in past years.

    See that picture near my name? That's a COD FISH. I live on Cape COD, so named by Barthomew Gosnold in 1602 because of the abundance of COD fish.








    God's fish
    I'm glad you didn't misread Bass Fish

    Yep - it was silly of me to not understand what's cod fish!
    On the whole, I am not wondering why Charles II said that to Sir William Temple after he was told that French king Louis XIV propoused to him to leave on the Isle only eight thousand of soldiers for keeping the Kingdom in order and full obedience...Of course the first thing which could came on one's mind is nothing but Cod fish!
    Cod's fish - I simply love this swearing!
    capecoddah I believe if Charles were a member of MR.com he would like your avatair!

    Cod's fish! What's wrong with you man? Why are you trying to kill yourself in the wall?
    Calm down. Relax and repeat slowly:
    Cod's------fiiiiiishhhh (yes right watch your breath)
    again Cod's -----fiiiiishhhhh

    Feel better?
    I am into this practice about last ten years - no stress anymore - I forgot what does the word mean!
    Cod's fish be with you!
    Я так думаю.
