Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I am not sure if I am a bot or not. However, I am beginning to think this is all just a simulation.


Many moons ago, I sold chemicals to quite a number of meat processing plants and tanneries. I used to put Vick's Vapo-Rub in my nostrils when I had to visit the plants. Some of them made skimmate smell like a nice lunch.

Yeah it's something you get used to but at the same time never get used to... it sticks to your hair and when I'd visit a plant while traveling I'd have to double bag my clothes before putting it in the suitcase or you can smell it through the suitcase.

We were a zero waste facility so EVERYTHING was processed including the doodoo. Smelled like death.
 
First one looks like you could have almost been a serial killer. Second one is more of a regular killer. Nice improvement!

Why do I have the funny feeling that someone is going to take your photos and do something "special" with them through AI?
first pic you cant see my hair, its pulled back in a pony tail I could tuck into the tops of my pants. My old biker self, cut that stuff off because i was tired of it.

I've only had my hair go to my shoulders once before. Got annoying, especially when I was climbing. Had to pause in the middle of a climb to get it out of my eyes, or just suck it up. Eventually chopped it off, and now I keep it short/medium length

There was a place outside of Green Bay, WI called Anamax. At first, I thought, "How can this place be so close to Green Bay?" Then I drove around Green Bay and quickly understood that it was no big deal.

If I think hard enough, I can recall having hair. I can even recall having hair down a little bit past my mid-back. No pics of any of those days as all that stayed with the ex when I roared away from the house at a very fast rate of speed. And, yes, the tires were smokin' in the process.

See above comment.
 
Now that's swag! Awesome sticker and air freshener? Wow!

That is nice swag!

And what's really interesting is how @VintageReefer would know you need an air freshener. Maybe he knows some of the people you work with and they asked him to do a favor for them. You know, because you're a delicate flower and no one wants to tell you that you smell bad. Make sure to rub that freshener on yourself before entering the casino.

I will say that in April of 2010 I weighed in at 271 lbs. (i am 6'1" tall) when i started the carnivore diet. By December i was down to 200 lbs. I thought I looked good, everyone else thought I was on drugs. I have kind of leveled out at about 230. I look kind of like a younger Kevin....lol
