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...

My wife makes a great crab sauce for Christmas. I caught 8 of them but I needed another dozen so I just bought them.

Add bookmark #1 Paul B 10K Club member Excellence Award Reef Tank 365 Reef Of The Month I posted this 5 years ago :) I am not the smartest fish keeper in the world, but I am probably one of the oldest. Being one of the oldest, I have also had more time to study this stuff and more time to...

Remember, today is Pearl Harbor remembrance day, The day the US was attacked by Japan killing over 2,000 Americans and getting us into WW2

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...

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. :)

I have a thought on the bristle worms. I do have a 6 line wrasse, an arrow crab, decorator crab and coral banded fish but I always had those or similar creatures so I doubt they ate the worms. I am not sure what killed them but it could have been the toxins from the sponge that I removed. I...

Thats true. Unfortunately, I feel the younger generation has no idea what that means or how freedom came about as most of the people in the world are not free and if it were not for the US, no one would be free. :confused:

I seem to have lost my bristle worms. I have not seen one in a couple of months and I usually see them when the lights are off. Also my decorator crab, arrow crab, coral banded shrimp and harlequin shrimp molted and didn't get eaten. I still have all of them and when I had a tank full of big...

Mark. I outgrew my uniform on the plane coming home from Nam. In the last 3 years I lost 35 lbs from walking. Now it fits. :)

I had my free breakfast at I Hop this morning. Veterans Day is the only time we eat there. That is my Stateside shirt. I got it when I was 19 and it still fits. :)

Lets not forget to thank a Veteran today. Without Veterans, instead of reef tanks we would be driving real military tanks or raising fish for food. :)

Happy Veterans Day to all of our Vets. And welcome home. (yes, I know it's tomorrow) :D And many years ago with my main squeeze. And she still is. :D

So my surgery is over and I won't know if it worked for a couple of weeks or months. I was not supposed to do any exercise or lift anything for a few days. Of course yesterday, my car was dead. The one year old, five year warranty battery croaked. I couldn't even get the key out of the...

Thanks Diana. I am taking baths in Prizapro. :biggrin:

This is what she did. But she did it with 4 incisions for 6 vertibra. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/procedures/intracept-procedure
