Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

I usually think of Nyack as a town I pass through going to New England. Great pictures. It's amazing how wide the Hudson River is there. You can see why Henry Hudson thought he found the north west passage, until it was noticed that this was fresh water.

I got a quick question for you. I saw the stuff about your white worm culture. For some reason, I didn't realize that you were using coolers to keep them in. What temp are you keeping the cultures at?

This guy is 34 and his mate is a couple of years younger. :D They have never been quarantined, medicated, spoken to, observed, de-wormed or anything else. And still spawning like bunnies.

Last night, I took my Bride to one of our favorite seafood restaurants on the east end of Long Island.

It's not on the water, but over the water as the surf goes right under the place.

I always loved making Halloween costumes and never bought one for my Daughter or Grand Kids.

This was a few years ago. My Daughter and her Husband live in Manhattan so I built them a two person Brooklyn Bridge costume. It was 12' long



It was on TV on a few stations and they were interviewed. The lights worked and there was an accident on the bridge with a car on fire, road flairs and a news helicopter overhead.

Thank you. Once I made my Daughter a big plate of linguine and clams. It had real clams on it. (clam shells) She also got on TV with that one. :D

Next week I have to go in for my 36th surgery. It will take an hour. (Some silly back thing on a vertebra). All thankfully for stupid things like torn and broken parts, loose toggle bolts etc. nothing important. I wasn't exactly a computer programmer and had to actually lift heavy things for almost 50 years. We were not designed for that and were only made to run after Woolly Mammoths and trip them as they go by.

So my surgeon called me yesterday to tell me I have to go to a pre surgery physical. The surgery is Tuesday so it was nice of her to give me 3 days to get this done. Do you think you could get a doctor in that time in New York?

Well, I found one who is probably a Quack but it doesn't matter as long as they know how to work a blood pressure machine and fax it to the surgeon in an hour.

So this morning I had to drive an hour because you also have to meet the anesthesiologist before the procedure, and he doesn't live next door. I drove there during rush hour and waited for the Dr.
Dugie Howser, who is was least 12 years old comes in and introduces himself.

He asked me if I have an artificial heart valve, asthma, high blood pressure, if I am on Prizapro or have urenema or a fish tank. Then he said, Great! I will see you in 3 days.
This took all of 3 minutes and that includes me scratching my nose.

I mean he could have just called me but then he couldn't bill my insurance for $500.79 for "Consultation. Like really!

So we are having a Christmas party and we invited way to many people hoping that a few of the people would say they had other plans and couldn't come. Nope,,,All of them are coming. I am not sure where we will fit them and I may have to put my reef out on the sidewalk for a few hours.

I hired a girl to help us serve and clean even though it is catered. We did the same thing last year.

Everyone here who lives with in 2 miles from my house is welcome. :)

It's also my Birthday. Christmas, not today. :D

Well if I lived close by I would come too. It would be fun to just listen to you talk!

My prayers that everything goes well tomorrow. Hugs
