"Fish" is my last name, so you should say "Thanks, Shlomi" or "Thanks, Mr. 
Fish" - not "Thanks, Fish". See what Joel Spolsky wrote about it here:

Quoting from it:

In most of the English speaking world it is not considered polite to open 
letters to a Mr. Joel Spolsky by writing "Dear Spolsky." One might write "Dear 
Mr. Spolsky," or "Dear sir," or perhaps, "Hi Joel!" But "Dear Spolsky" is 
usually followed by some story about embezzled funds and needing to borrow my 
bank account.

The point is that you should follow the instructions in the documentation of 
local-lib in order to bootstrap it and install it in your current directory, 
and then you can install more modules and make use of them with much great 
ease.
