  1. But I did alright.. I just got finished last night building my new fish tank stand. I decided to go a different route with it then the traditional cannot style. I really hate trying to climb inside while working on pumps or taking apart the skimmer to empty it. Enjoy my horrible building skills through these lousy pictures. The new light and crushed coral substrate should be here in a couple days. Got a better deal online then at the over priced store.  I'm just going to sit back and watch the electrical people shit themselves over my Frankenstein electrical box.. so far that box ran two tanks for over 6 years non stop. I figured I will keep using it for this tank also... Yup.. no GFCI and it's near water..... The wall outlet is going to be a GFCI in the next couple days.

  12. Went to see our new lambs today. The 2 ewe lambs with their dam. We just get the lambs not the dam. They will be coming home on May 5. Our ram is only 10 days old. He won't be coming home till August 15 since they will be showing him at several large shows. Don't have a real good picture but this will have to do for now. He is the white one with the black legs.

  17. Not Airedales. I was doing a review of litter of goldenr retriever puppies inTonawanda,NY today-- well near it anyway. My nephew who lives in Maryland where he should is getting one of these puppies. I get to do all the work and the Sunday visits. They are really sweet, well socialized and cute. Call this post Cheese Bait. Kirbie will like it too. 3 weeks old yesterday.

  18. I think this would be a big pro, I would love to hang out with Page Turner! I would try and convince him to change his name back to 'No One' because I liked it better. It would probably be harder for him to endure me.

  21. I was his mentor for many years when he was but a callow youth. I do take credit for making him a sophisticated man of the world and for teaching him how to use a fork and knife. That man owes me everything....he lived his whole life in dungarees before he met me but chooses to forget how I moulded him into the silver-tongued charmer he presents as today. I regret nothing............sob.

  24. Yep - and I appreciate your effort. It works again, and no dilly dallying around saving as jpgs. Thanks! But also feel free to revisit the other option at a later time when you have more free time.

  26. My daughters both hate Big Bang for two reasons. One, the hackneyed laugh track standard sitcom thing, and two, they think it reinforces gender stereotypes, even though there is Bernadette and Amy who are also successful at science stuff. To me it is more of a Seinfeld copycat, although even Seinfeld was somewhat of a copycat of I love Lucy with the ensemble cast and all. I can tolerate it - at least it is better than a lot of the other stuff my wife watches. Two broke girls at least had garret morris! It was good to see him back on tv-loved his Chico back in the day! I am in the 12 year old camp with cheese. Sort of a modern day petticoat junction but withoot the redhead. I also am quite pleased with how the bbt creators paid homage to Sheldon Leonard, producer of The Andy Griffith show

  31. ...when I was working fire, toward the end, I had some significant back injury issues. They used to offer oxycodone, but honestly opioid painkillers always put me pretty well out of it, so I couldn't take them and still work. There was one guy i worked with, though, who took them pretty regularly at increasingly high dosages. He had some doctor who believed in them as one answer to living with chronic pain. And his back was pretty well hosed. You get habituated to them after a while, and have to keep increasing the dose for them to work. They finally somehow got access to his medical records because it was a work related injury, and they involuntarily retired him. It was kinda scary working with him, because he had pinpoint pupils most of the time. He wanted to keep working because he was younger than I was, and still had young kids. You take a pretty big hit in income when they involuntarily retire you. The only thing that ever helped my back in the longer run was yoga. And I tried a lot of stuff. But I think it also got slowly better over the years because some of the nerves died off (the ones that were getting pressured and triggered pain). For a long time, if I hung upside down or did a certain backward stretch with a prop underneath my thoracic spine, I could make something pop between the vertebrae, and the pain would go away miraculously for about 45 minutes or an hour. Then it would gradually return. I described it to a doctor once, and he told me that it wasn't possible. Back pain is kind of a gray area in medicine. And medicine is kind of a gray area in science. So it's pretty dark in there.

  33. Around the World With 5,500 Cars The trip is no Disney cruise either: the vehicle makes its crossing lashed snugly to the steel floor of a cargo deck, just inches from its neighbor, inside a vessel that looks both impossibly clunky and imposingly grand. When loaded, these decks look like a traffic nightmare on the Long Island Expressway; cleared in the hours after docking, they are as spotless and cavernous as a newly opened warehouse. Car carrier ships are nautical workhorses of the industrialized world. Hauling up to 8,500 vehicles in a layer cake of 13 decks packed as tight as the Tokyo subway at rush hour, these ships do one basic task very well — delivering vehicles, from tiny compacts to enormous excavators, unscathed to destinations like the port here.

  37. The drivetrain was a 9 speed touring setup using Shimano Deore XT RD and a Sora triple FD. Microshift bar end shifters and Tektro brake levers. 11-32T cassette and 48-36-26T crankset. I've swapped in a 10 speed chain and cassette, keeping the RD, FD, and crankset. Shimano Tiagra 4600/4603 integrated levers for the gears and road brakes. Jagwire Pro Road brake cables. The cockpit includes an inexpensive accessory bar, Sigma computer mount, and a traditional 1" diameter bar.
