Good morning All! I got a message from R2R this morning where I had to check a box saying I wasn’t a robot. Maybe that’s what was going on last night?

Nice Favia Kev!

 

[Rocks reef]

Alright guys and gals, what's your thoughts, any colors I'm missing/need more of?

Beautiful!

Hey Smorgs!
Is there a better (cheaper) place to buy Spear Gate Valves than Bulk Reef? I'm trying to avoid the "reef tax".

Over staffed or under staffed? It would be wonderful to be over staffed!

That was a joke I thought you would’ve got. Nurses are always understaffed.

Oh, I got it after the confusion wore off!
I worked in the ICU for 17 years before coming to the Department of Veteran Affairs. I have to admit, I love serving those who've served.

There is an episode of the Sopranos where Paulie comes to Youngstown Ohio to meet with the mafia here, he gets arrested and he keeps calling Tony to bail him out but Tony won’t because he was mad at him. Youngstown used to be a big mafia town and was a go between for the NYC and Chicago mob as well as the Pittsburgh and Cleveland mob. If you get a chance check out Richard Pryor Youngstown mafia on YouTube, it’s hilarious. I can’t post it here due to the language.

When I bought mine I was surprised that BRS seemed to have the best deal

I was just going to post that. I appreciate your feedback Mike. I'm starting to plan the plumbing for the new tank. I wonder if I can get BRS to send a "fake" receipt to keep my wifes blood pressure down! LOL! Or I'll get her a bottle of her favorite wine... I'll probably do the wine route... it has added benefits! :smiling-face-with-halo:

Show her the other wild prices first and say you stumbled onto BRS and found a killer deal! I gotta jump on it before it goes up in price like everyone else's! Lol

I will the waiting and not knowing is hard. I will feel better when I know one way or the other so I can plan.

I had faith in you Kevin! That's awesome

Ya, me and the Mrs binged it back when you got Netflix dvd s in the mail. I was disappointed with the finale. It’s up there with the finale of Lost and Dexter.

Yep, I rented these through the mail. Redbox dvds lol

 

[kingranch2003]

Can't say I have...however, it will be viewed my friend

One of my all time favorites for sure!

Speaking from a man with experience. Thank you Mike!

 

[kingranch2003]

He does have a plan. He knew the timing wasn't right for you and Emyi (Lord, I hope I got that right). I need to start keeping notes.

Yep that's her (Amy). She spelled it like that for her screen name. Considering she never posts, you have an excellent memory sir lol. You're exactly right. He knew better than we did

I remember the Redbox kiosks being outside several stores. It's been a while since I've seen one. They've gone away just like the 8 track, cassette and soon the CDs since most stuff is streamed or digital now.

I think most men do. We are taught and/or raised to always be strong and not show emotion except possibly anger. Now, I can't say that about the "younger" generation of "men"...I use that term lightly. I'm not talking about anyone on here, so far I've noticed we (the guys) all work, have families and provide. Its the 25ish and younger I see it who are confused about...you can fill that part in...and expect a handout rather than busting their hump and earning it. I apologize and will step off my soap box. If I offended anyone on here, it wasn't meant that way. Just my .02 cents. With inflation like it is, it's not worth that anyway! Lol!

I can't find one single word here that I don't 100% agree with. Right there with you brother. We're trying to raise some up that'll help the situation
