Good Morning!

Good morning! Happy Friday!

Its Friday GIF by Justin
 
Good morning.

office hours today (read projects at the company farm). I’m okay with it. Yesterday kiddo had an episode for an hour, later spit all over my lunch, then nailed me in the mouth with a 5lb handheld hunting LED. Split the inside of my upper lip by the my gum.

love my job but it’ll be nice to have a break. In other news. Trying to decide which parts for my build I will purchase since today is payday.

in any case, happy Friday everyone!

Good morning all! Looks like another glorious day in New Jersey. Wife is still in bed so she hasn't barked her orders to me yet. We did open the swamp yesterday, and it's always a mystery as to what we'll get. This year was split pea soup. This is after overnight of a heavy dose of shock.

The one good thing I did this year was to put one of our birdbaths close to the pool. When the cover is on, the birds use it as the worlds largest bird bath. When the cover comes off, we typically have dead birds in the pool with them thinking it's still a birdbath. So far it appears to be working....I've seen birds in the birdbath and nothing dead in the pool yet.

Good Morning, I have a lot of time on my hands and I like to use it to improve Humanity by studying the past, so I can predict the future which is why I again this morning walked on this ancient beach. But unlike other times, this time I walked east, towards the sunrise. A direction I, or any body else has never walked so I didn't know what I would find and the fascination coupled with the fact that I knew there was no bathroom there just increased the Adrenalin rush.

At first all I encountered was bare sand so I wasn't ready for what I actually discovered. Yesterday, as I reported I found Noah's dinghy partially covered in ancient layers of sand and it is commonly thought that Noah's ark came aground somewhere in Turkey on Mount Ararat.

That is fundamentally incorrect as I have seen it and now realize it came to rest in back of my Condo association on Long Island. It seems to have been heading towards Bayonne New Jersey.

As you can see, you can only notice a small part of the wreckage and I surmise that part that is above the water was the "Poop Deck".

But I would imagine any deck on a boat carrying every animal in the world could be called a "Poop Deck".

After finding the actual Ark I figured some survivors of that iconic boat must have made it to shore. After all it was only about 50 feet out.
A half a mile or so later I did come across quite a bit of new information and artifacts.

I know at least some of the animals either escaped or were released by Noah. The first evidence I found were these, probably extinct footprints that I surmise were from a four toed sloth.

Four toed sloths are now extinct and I found out why.

Noah ate them.

Other animals that made it to shore were probably these flightless birds. Maybe Dodo's but I am awaiting for DNA analysis.

These birds, I am sure were so excited to get away from Noah and his hungry crew that they ran around in circles and invented the Macarana. You can learn much about the habits of animals by footprints.

After I made plaster casts of those tracks I continued walking east to see what else I could learn. Astonishingly, although Noah was Jewish, he seemed to have celebrated Christmas thousands of years before Christs birthday as proven by this petrified Christmas tree that must have washed off the deck after a particularly wild Christmas party.

Now I was quite far from the Ark and Noah must have been tired from this long walk on the beach gravel after so much time at sea.

I could tell his feet were aching as I found a discarded bottle of his gout medication.

What I didn't know was that Noah wore Red Wing boots.

That wasn't surprising. What was surprising was where did he get them before Amazon was invented?

And remember that dove that Noah let loose to see if he was near land?

It died.

Good Morning Reefies.

Good morning everyone. I have physical therapy today and trying dry needling on my shoulder too for the first time. Kinda like acupuncture but it’s not. 3 months post surgery and still having quite a bit of pain so trying this. Therapist says pain is due to the tendinitis and inflammation I can’t seam to get rid of.
Later today going car shopping for my daughter. That should be fun. She’s 18 and still doesn’t have her drivers license, she doesn’t like driving and is very intimidated by it. Due to Covid last year driving schools were all canceled so have to teach her ourselves. Told her she is an adult now and I’m not driving her around all summer so she has to get her license! In all honesty, I am afraid driving with her. Wish me luck!!

don't push if she is scared, just be unavailable to drive her. she will get enthusiastic about driving after walking a bit. my son did.

I ask myself the same thing frequently. I keep coming back to "it beats the alternative" :D
 
Good morning
Happy Saturday
I ordered another lionfish. I am going to try 3. I miss Fuzzy. I am debating moving the tang to the 240. He is too big for my acclimation box. There is a clown tang in there.
