    I don't like this death thing at all but the older we get the more familiar we get with it. My Mother died at 99 and her and my Mother N Law used to say all the time, it isn't any fun to outlive all your family and friends so you are alone. I guess that makes you lucky in a way because you beat...

    I can't believe this is happening again in the same week. Another good friend is dying of cancer. Dennis was fine and playing golf two weeks ago and I just got a call they are putting him in hospice for lung cancer that spread. There is nothing they can do. If he dies, it will be my 6th...

    I decided that for my new book, (nothing about fish) I will donate any and all profits to "The Wounded Warriors" project. I dedicated the book to the almost 50 brave, young guys who lost their life fighting on April 1st 1970 on a remote Firebase in Vietnam. I was very lucky that night and I...

    Yesterday I cleaned 18 crabs for part of the Christmas Eve. dinner. My wife makes a dynamite crab sauce over linguine. Last year I think we had 21 types of seafood Christmas Eve. This is a building near my Daughters house in Manhattan. It's by Louie Vittone. I have no idea how they did it.

    Last night in the pouring rain our power went out. So I called the electric company and informed them because it was only my block and not the east coast of the US. Usually it comes right back on so I just got some of my battery lights and candles so we could see. My wife was in the bath tub...

    Unfortunately I received bad news last night. My close friend of over 40 years has 4th stage colon cancer. Two weeks ago he went for a routine colonoscopy and got the news. He seemed to be in perfect health, he exercised all the time by playing tennis and racquetball and ate very healthy. He...

    I try very hard not to put anemones in my tank but I have about 25 of them. They must come through by osmoses. I purposely don't feed them or they get huge and you can't kill them.

    I got my wife a new computer for Christmas. Her old one may have caught urenema from my old Chrome book although it never went on these disease sites so I'm not sure how it got infected. :unsure: It was about $600.00 but being it is almost Black Friday it was $220.00 off. You can see how much...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I got a new computer. My wife got me this one for Christmas but she had to give it to me early because my old "Chromebook" must have gotten an ich infection from going on all these forums and almost crashed. It was so slow that I would turn it on then have breakfast, wash my car and think about...

    "From Brooklyn Through Vietnam and Back". A Soldiers Story. But if you just Google my name on Amazon, it comes up under my last fish book. I didn't put it on here because I want anyone to buy it, Probably all the proceeds will go to Wounded Warriors but I am not sure yet. Some may go to...

    I can' believe it. I wrote a new book, not about fish, it's about my army time in Vietnam. I sent it in to Amazon last night and it is published already and on their site. I don't know how they get this stuff done so fast. :)
