Who owns the fish?

Here's a riddle I found here, supposedly attributed to Albert Einstein. There is a solution, if you can't figure it out, ask me!

There are 5 houses in a row, and in five different colors. In each house lives a person from a different country. Each person drinks a certain drink, plays a certain game, and keeps a certain pet. No two people drink the same drink, play the same game or have the same pet.

The British lives in a red house.
The Swedish keeps dogs.
The Danish drinks tea.
The green house is on the left of the white house.
The green house owner drinks coffee.
The person who plays tennis rears birds.
The owner of the yellow house plays chess.
The man living in the house right in the center drinks milk.
The Norwegian lives in the first house.
The man who plays poker lives next to the man who keeps cats.
The man who keeps horses lives next to the man who plays chess.
The man who plays billiards drinks lemonade.
The German plays golf.
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
The man who plays poker has a neighbor who drinks orange juice.

Now, who owns the fish?

I don't know, they just lacked the stamina to pull things through today. Then again, I don't fault them. NY has a pretty tense weekend with the bomb alert, and I pray that all will be well. After all, in my heart NYC is still my home. This weekend is Fall Break. Unfortunately for me, the weather is bad so I probably can't go hiking, and then my boss told me Thursday that we have work to do over the weekend. Right now I am busy testing the microwave/rf generators for our quantum dot gate pulsing. We need to make sure that we can maintain the pulse form sent down to the sample with minimal distortion, reflection, attenuation and loss. This is made particularly difficult due to the size of our metal gates (which I made), on the order of 100 nm or less in width and less than 20 nm in thickness. S...

Coffee!
