We had a 4 hour class about defending our church's congregation in case of an attack tonight. I kinda wanted to stay home, but went as I had promised. It was amazing! I was very impressed by the instructors. Tomorrow afternoon, another 4 hour class at the gun range. Each person needs a handgun, holster, and 200 rounds of ammo. Should be interesting!

Its sad that the world is filled with so much evil these days that we need classes like this but I'm really glad your church will be protected not only by God but by the church members.
 
Phew ok finally caught up! Good morning everyone and happy Saturday!!! Going to be moving a few plants around from other tanks into my pea puffer tank and maybe going to the LFS to buy a few stem plants. Since I have so many of the little murder beans the tank needs more plants so they can setup individual little territories.
 
Good morning to all you sexy Smorgs!

It was a very long day yesterday. I will admit that I did not catch myself up through reading the previous 8 pages I missed. By the time I got to bed there were several forks stuck into me. Plus, I lack the time, this morning, to read all of, what I presume to be, fabulous commentary with cool pics and outstanding music.

I wish you all exactly the type of Saturday that makes you happiest.

No one should ever be attacked for their beliefs, whether political, religious, or of any kind. It's very sad that we've reached this point, but I'm very happy about what your church is doing to protect all of you from some lunatics out there.

My issue is one I don't feel like me or my tanks are worthy yet and two I think it should be others that nominate the people for it but that's just my opinion.

Two different badges there, dear. One's simple recognition for busting your hump to help others with their tanks/lives, and the other is like the Winston cup. It's shared by a few people and just passed around a few times a year. You AND your tanks are worthy of both!
