Another oldie before bed:



This one comes to mind when I'm having tank troubles.

Oh cool! Ive never head them cover this. That guitarist played this song again down the road for another decent band as I recall.

Tin Blimp or something like that I think. The idea for Led Zeppelin came out of the Yardbirds. I think this cover was shortly before they reformed, again.
 
Since Im up here are a few coral.pics :)

The meat corals are always fat and happy. Too fat really...

Then there's plate mania. Fungia plates have quickly become one of my favorite corals.

The sps are all growing in well and im happy with the color contrast so far. I need a little more green up top.
 
Sometimes I like to find older versions of 'classic' rock songs. Here's one:


That was haunting. It sounded so modern. I love Jimi Hendrix's version, but I thought this told the story better.
 
Just got home from work! 20 hour day. Going in now to sleep.

Also, it's raining. Monsoon hit over a month late.

Goodnight dirty boots. A hardworking man deserves his rest.

This really affects me. I work with people who have killed relatives who were really close to them, and trying to help them. My mind immediately goes to this guy killing his wife because of a paranoid delusion.
