Where do your chuppa's go?

Where do your chuppa's go? Me I give them to my good friend Akinosan, when I have come to my wits end with the fish I give them to Rueben so he can see how the fish ends up in his pond...I noticed all of the fish I gave have grown quite abit and I am happy to see they are enjoying their new environment.

Mine go to a super top secret mud pond. I'm looking forward to seeing how they are doing next year.

It is my uderstanding a chuppa is declaring a thing with the official fulfillment of being an under-achiever, a dud or an object or thing enveloped in a cloud of darkness. A chuppa can be disappointingly ineffective or fail to accomplish a goal.
My three step kohak lost the majority of the hi at age 3 so I with reluctance declared it a chuppa and gave it to a friend who thought it was beautiful.

Down the gullet. Usually of a black bass, but sometimes in an alligator, a lot of times the cats get to share it. If big enough, perhaps one of the locals will take it home to feed thier family. My community is very "ethnically diverse". To some folks, a carp is a carp and carp are for dinner.

I got a ton of them, maybe I need to have a big "chuppa sale".

My friend liked the koi so much he came over and gave my yard a little trim the other day. I thought that was nice thing to do for a chuppa.

I sell them to beginners at a very low cost (however wishing that I had sold them years earlier for more when they still had potential)

Tony,

If that's what a "chuppa" is, then the question to me should be, "Dude, where did you get all those chuppas".
