    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    Early this morning, like all mornings I took my hour long walk. When I got close to my house a school bus stopped next to me. The driver, a nice Lady about 50 opened the door and came out to give me a hug. She said the (grammar) school kids on the bus told her about my interview on the news so...

    He was a real Patriot and Hero and I respect him. My wife's Dad was wounded in the Pacific and was in the hospital in Hawaii for a year.

    This has been a busy week and it's not over yet. Just 5 minutes ago I got a call from the "Honor Flight". That is an organisation who honors Veterans from all the wars by taking them to Washington BC once a year to honor them. We will get a flight to DC and tour all the monuments. I...

    I had to do something I always say not to do and it is something you would do. I ordered a small can of sinking pellets. :oops: These 3 Waspfish are getting very picky and only want to eat at night. They think they live in an all night diner, but they don't. Many times they won't eat during the...

    So yesterday we took the Lady and her sister around because they have never been on Long Island and she wanted to see the "Famous" Hamptons. WE took them to a winery were we are members. There was a party going on so the place was crowded. As we walked in, most of the people recognized us from...

    It was fun. They filmed for an hour but had to edit it to 90 seconds :)

    The news crew came here yesterday to do a story about a Christmas Card a little girl sent me in Viet Nam in 1970. They even got my fish tank in. I am waiting for Martin Scorsese to call me about the mini series. Now it's on every 10 minutes all day so I am getting tired of looking at myself...

    I figure I would put this Chalk Bass here because he doesn't come out to the front very often. He normally spends his time writing on the back glass with chalk. On another note, look at that beautiful growth on my rocks. I love it but most people would get out the tooth brush :p

    I normally walk around with a toothpick sticking out of my mouth. I quit smoking in Nam where cigarettes were free and started "smoking" toothpicks. My Grand Son, Teddy wants to look like me.

    The News film crew is coming to my house this Saturday to film my meeting with Kathleen who wrote to me in Vietnam. I am pretty excited to meet her. Reefsandroos, I lived through the blizzard of 1948. The city, reassured by a weather forecast of “occasional flurries,” went about its...

    I mean if you can't drive in the snow, why are you living in New York?

    The world is full of Sissies and Snowflakes. In the almost 50 years I worked in Manhattan I never took off because of weather, and in the 70s we used to measure snow by the foot, not inches. I don't remember exactly when so many people lost the ability to do anything even remotely difficult...

    So I have been coughing my brains out for a week and a TV crew is coming here in 4 days so I don't want to look like I am croaking when they are here. Normally I wouldn't care but I wanted to see if a Dr. could give me something to suppress this cough at least for a couple of days. After that I...

    Last week I mixed up 30 gallons of ASW. I am a little afraid to use NSW right now due to all the rain we had. The last time I used it, I had a produce farm. A day after I mixed it, it had a weird chemical smell that I never noticed before. (It's Instant Ocean) After a few days, the smell...

    This is very cool. It takes pictures and sculptures of historical figures and puts modern hairstyles and clothes on them to see how they would look today. https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Christmas-History.mp4?_=1

    OK, or drive here from wherever you live :D I went in my workshop late last night when the lights on the tank were off. My 3 waspfish were all over the place searching for food. No wonder they hardly eat in the day. Now I have to throw some food in there at night.
