Good Morning!

[Paul B]

@Paul B, do you need a deckhand and do you provide health insurance?

Of course. I am a licensed Captain but to be honest, I totally forgot how to tie any of those knots.

I need someone to stay on the boat and cook, clean fish, swab the decks, open the clams and peel onions etc. While I am acting like a tea bag soaking in the warm sea.

Health insurance is no problem. I supply all the Prizapro that you can use, I incorporate it into the complimentary Coppertone sun block.




I also supply unlimited linguine and clams

I guess you should wear pants when you fly or it would be drafty and people could see things you dont want them to.

I think the husband is worried about my meeting this afternoon. He keeps asking questions....what are you going to say if they ask this?? I don't know!! I fly by the seat of my pants!! I think he's afraid I'm going to up and quit...hmmm, I kind of like that plan!

my wife was the same when i took the buy out, and the former wouldn't agree to the billing rate from the contract company i was going to use to hire back.
it took down to my last day with them and phone calls from progressively higher management before they gave in.

it's always lets make a deal, especially if they know your worth and the cost of losing you.

random thought?

It's a deal....except for the Prazipro! You can leave that off...

It's been a while, but I can clean fish. My dad made me swab the decks. I draw the line at toilets, though!

I found a new 125 gallon tank at a LFS in Kentucky and the delusions started again. It was drilled already too.
But I would need a new light for 6 feet.

and Jill off on a road trip.
do it!

Thanks. I guess we're both a little nervous about the whole thing. I don't mind working a few more years, but with LIMITED hours. The 10-hour days Monday-Thursday are getting harder and harder. I can't just sit in this chair all day like I used to. Funny, while we were on the trip, we did a ton of walking and I had no aches or pains. I come home, back in the chair...the aches and pains start.

Good Morning! It's a brisk 1 this morning for my walk to work. I am nowhere near even thinking about retirement. I am truly jealous. I have a couple more decades of the grind to go. At least I usually enjoy my job. Soon the crazy selfish Americans will stop traveling. We normally only get them during the winter for 3 months. But here lately it's all we get year round. Have a great day and stay safe!

We have been married this long because Jill would help me load it in the car. She wouldn't care If I did it. When we saw it, I said I don't know how I would get it home and she said to measure the car.

I was wondering if it would fit in the back of my Edge! Kentucky is only one state away...

Good morning. It’s 1 degree here. One of the bluebirds got stuck in the bluebird feeder for about 10 minutes. Thought I was going to have to go rescue it, but finally figured it out. It is all enclosed except for a 1 1/2” hole on each side. This keeps the starlings out.

I'm glad the bluebird got out! I love my little bluebirds and look forward to them filling up my bluebird houses in the spring. I even buy them mealworms to add to my bluebird dish!

@sp1187, I don't salt the mealworms!

Reef Grammie, it's a small boat but usually full, so no problem.



But we do take interesting cruises.









Great sunsets over the Bronx.




Of course my wife will help out with the cleaning and opening of clams.



I like to supervise.

Great pictures!! Show me the lighthouses and I'll shuck the clams!

 

[Paul B]

I think we have 9 lighthouses that I can easily get to.

andrea has a hate relationship with starlings.

Good morning! it has been a long time since i gave the Mind-Blown emoji such a work out!! carry on.

 

[Just John]

Good morning!
That's all I have

 

[Just John]

Actually, I do have something. Unfortunately, I have to complain and you are a captive audience, so here I go. I know it's long. There is a guy near here who has a 55 he set up a few months ago. Has some fish, everything is great with the parameters, has years of experience with a tank he took down a while ago, etc. But he could use some help stocking it for various reasons. In the end, I decided to give him about 10 frags I had made with good stuff on them. Really nice zoas, sinularia, nice Ricordea, etc. Two weeks later every single one is dead. (Insert censored expletives here !!!) He told me this "might" be why. 1- He started every frag on the top of the rock work and knows he needs a new light because the current one is way too bright for the tank. 2- Actually only has 2 test kits and one is for ammonia. 3- The best one of all. He was using a ten year old heater and never checked the temperature. He just set it and let it run. It turns out the temperature in the tank was in the low 90's. I'm surprised his fish are alive. That's all. I'm done now.

and they have a 180 gallon dual Megaflow tank
"I don't care honey, which ever one will fit in the car"
No guts no glory.
I have no idea how I will get it out of the car when I get home. I will think of something.

Louie will not eat tuna, salmon or chicken but we are sharing the anchovy pizza leftovers for lunch.
