Good Morning. Like all mornings I took a walk before dawn. I decided to find a new route being I am surrounded by farms and I was basically a city boy. I walked down the road I always go down. This one past the golf course.
Then I crossed the main road and kept going through a strawberry...
Merry Christmas everyone.
Lets not forget at this time of the year all the kids, including babies who are in the hospital fighting for their life and I pray they make it to enjoy many more Christmases in their future :)
I took my morning walk at 6:00 this morning. It was a little dark and raining. That is a street light about a mile away. I didn't trip over any deer that I remember. :p
My Ruby Red dragonette is very pregnant. The male isn't really interested even though she is a real Babe. If she doesn't lay eggs soon she will be egg bound and die. It seems to be very common in dragonettes and I have lost quite a few of them to that.
It was extremely easy for me to quit smoking Cold Turkey and anyone could do it. :)
It was 1971 andI was on this LZ on the Cambodian border "enjoying" a cigarette while I was 50 yards away from our burm or perimeter talking to a helicopter pilot friend of mine. (There were no roads)
I...
Good Morning. Today at National Cemetaries all across the US they are having a "Laying of the Wreaths" ceremony on the graves of "all" the Veterans. We are having very heavy rains here on Long Island today and I am going because I think the rains will unfortunately keep many people from doing...
Two days ago I took my wife to her PT person and of course I have to go to my favorite LFS near there. This is the filthy place who has been there for 50 years. I didn't want to get any fish because I have way to many now but there was this long nose butterfly there who was looking at me as if...
The last time I cut out much of that encrusting sponge in my tank I overdid it and killed most of my SPS corals that I have been trying to grow for years. It isn't bad as I like LPS much better anyway.
I probably won't be replacing those SPS because at my age, it isn't important and my tank is...
She used to get that a lot. The Sharon Stone thing. That picture was probably 10 years ago.
I of course look just like Tom Sellic as he did 20 years ago. :)
Wisdom.
There is an old Testament reading (6:12-16) that explains if you are generally seeking wisdom, then open your mind and heart and wisdom will seek you out and be found sitting by your front gate.
That is a little before my time (not much). Religion and science have a lot in common. Most...
I had to move some more corals around after my partial re-aquascape because some of them ended up facing down or in the back of the tank. I removed some to remove encrusting sponge and under the sponge is loaded with amphipods. (not copepods that are all over the place)
The amphipods I added...
I’m a VETERAN!
(copied from unknown author)
To understand a Military Veteran you must know:
We left home as teenagers or in our early twenties for an unknown adventure.
We loved our country enough to defend it and protect it with our own lives.
We said goodbye to friends and family and...
Happy Veterans Day to all the Veterans here. Remember, if it were not for Veterans we would all be keeping Artichokes instead of fish.
A lot of people think it’s “Veteran’s Day” or “Veterans’ Day,” but they’re wrong. The holiday is not a day that “belongs” to one veteran or multiple veterans...
