Last year squirrels got under my solar panels and ate through my roof shingles and the tar paper. They also ate completely through a bunch of the copper cables forcing me to remove some of the panels and re wire most of the system. I repaired the roof and replaced the cables. Then I...

In a few weeks my boat will be in the water and it will be amphipod hunting season. The early summer is when they are free swimming and possibly breeding but I really don't know. I do know that there are so many of them at that time that all I have to do is put my arm in the water (in a tide...

Christie Brinkley :rolleyes:

Yep, that's a Jeep alright.

Just after Thanksgiving I had a hand operation. If you worked construction for 40 years and your joints still work, you didn't work hard enough. One finger (the one I use to point at Supermodels) was becoming stuck in the bent position so I went in to have it fixed. They "fixed" my knee at...

Feeder video. Notice how pregnant the pipefish is.

My whole life is a hobby, but I also make wine.

Sounds like a plan :)

By me. Understanding Old Tank Syndrome

Yes that is what I have and I have known about the frost proof valve for a long time. Where the thing is located, it is just so much easier to put in a ball valve in the house. My home is stone and to put in that valve I would need to get up into a place above the foundation which is 18"...

As I was feeding the fish tonight I noticed a pipefish that I thought I lost a couple of weeks ago. It is a very plain looking pipe that crawls around the bottom like a dragon faced pipe. I got him at Aquarium Village my favorite store. He is crawling around hunting, and apparently finding pods

Today is a beautiful day so I figured I would powerwash the eaves of the house. To do that I had to turn on the hoses outside that I had off all winter. I tried to turn on the valve inside my house for the hose and it wouldn't budge. That figures, I never turned off this valve before but this...

Still practicing with camera so don't mind me.

I am having a hard time keeping all my fish fed because I just have too many. You know that feeling when you go into a LFS not intending to buy anything. You promise yourself you won't buy anything because you just don't have the room. You swear to yourself you won't buy anything. Then you...

I said battery cable because it seems he can get low current things to work and the front windows, not the rear. I don't think there is one fuse for the rear windows that would also control the ignition, locks, key fob etc. Of course you would have to see the wiring diagram for that but the...

I am not a mechanic any longer but was one for General Motors many moons ago. That sounds like a loose, dirty or bad battery cable as you are getting very high resistance from the battery. A tripped breaker or blown fuse will get no sound from the fuel pump and no windows working, not just...

No, I moved it to my new home in about 1978. I put everything in garbage pails and took it with me the 9 miles to my new house. It has been here ever since.

My tank has reached 45 years old this month. I am kind of proud of that. :rolleyes:

Early this morning I got out my flashlight and looked at the tank before the lights came on. I normally get up way before the rest of the world does and nothing is open so I look at my tank. I usually will see things swimming or floating by but it is so fast that I rarely get a chance to see...

I think it's a Hemmhorid :confused:
