Drifter

FINALLY...just finished resealing the tank. I'm "mostly" happy with the reseal job so far, looks wise I would say passable but not perfect. Since this is my very first reseal though and its so dang big I guess it's not expected to be perfect. There's a few spots where there's some excess silicone that my finger pushed out too far because I did not use any tape. Since every seal in the tank will be covered by the 3D background though none of those spots worry me because they will not be seen anyway. Far as structural integrity of the reseal job (the important part) I am pretty confident it all went very well. I pushed the new silicone deep into the corners and laid some nice long beads without any spots that look suspect, so I believe it should be a pretty sound job hopefully. We'll find out in about 7-8 days I guess. Couple pics....

Well to start...Anything Lady Gaga makes me want to rip my own head off and stick it in a blender on high.

Just thought you guys might enjoy a few pics from Ford Field last night. I use to go to the Monster Jams all the time back in my 20's but had not been in the last probably 15-20 years. My Niece was dying to go so we went last night.

Most of them when they get to be about 1.5-2" can be sold for $2 to $3 each so I'll be able to make a little money off them.

This comes out the Friday. And I am NOT AFRAID to post this. I want to see this. If you are Gay, athiest, or what ever, that is totally fine. This is simply a movie which people such as myself, will like to see and enjoy. because I want to see this does not mean I am full of hate nor hate any certain group of people. It just means I have my own belief'sand I am happy that there's actually a movie such as this coming out to the Gen Pub in today's world...

Nope actually have not dude, but I will have to check that out for sure.

The OB that mated just had their fry. There's over 50 of them. Now between those and the ones from a month ago I have over 100 fry growing out Then here's the 35 Mbamba bay's. They are going on about a month old now I believe?

Yeah definitely very different than here. My Nephew got a $82,000 scholarship to Lawrence tech, and it's still gonna cost him another $20,000 debt even on top of the scholarship

I was assuming since he said he is finishing college that the 50K debt was already there?

Jordie it is always hard to try to give job advice to someone else because everyone is so different. What works for me might not even make sense to you, or what works for the next guy might seem like insanity to someone else, so with that said all I can do if offer my opinion based on what I myself would do if I were a young 18 yr old guy like yourself just getting out of college, not sure what I want to do, and 50K worth of debt. First off you are NOT being a leech to your parents. If it makes you feel better then throw a few bucks to them for rent but stay there for a couple years while you get some of that 50K debt paid down because once you are out on your own you will not have the chance to pay the debt off like will be able to now. Since you don't know yet what you want to do, and like you said being 18 right out of school it's gonna be hard for someone to trust you with their marketing budget right now because of that. So What I would do... I would go get just basically ANY job you can get right now. No matter what it is even stocking shelves or what have you, because if you stay at home for 2 years then you could get that 50K debt paid down dramatically with even a low paying job because you would not have any other bills to pay. Then after 2 years or so you could then start to look into starting up your own media business because you would have most your debt paid down, you would no longer be a 18 yr old just out of college so people would be a bit more apt to consider you for their marketing needs, but the main thing is you would not be starting life 50k in the hole. Then you could actually look for something that you truly enjoy doing. Like I said that may not be the best advice for everyone, but that's what makes sense to me personally.

I absolutely LOVE Phenochilus haps. I think they are one of the best looking fish out there. When I was at the LFS on Saturday I saw this guy and knew instantly he was making the trip back home with me. He's about 6" and just great looking and active. I think as he grows he's gonna be a real stunner.

Don't know WTF happened to them because they were looking like a Gold medal team the first 4 games. There was a huge difference in the way they played the last two games compared to the first four they played. Overall we (USA) did pretty good. Came in second overall medal count with around 28 medals I believe.

LOL

We're stinkin' the place up right now. Down by 2 in the 3rd period.

This is just unreal. Read this story here http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/news/world/europe/article4011207.ece If you have not heard this in the past day, this girl was shot in the neck in Ukraine during all the shit that is currently going on over there. She thought she was gonna die, had blood pouring out of her neck, so what's she do?.....gets on twitter and tweets "I'm dying". Are you fucking kidding me, is this what people have become. Have young people now a days become so damn intertwined with all this useless twitter/facebook garbage that they actually will stand there trying to stop the blood from gushing from their neck with one hand while tweeting with a cellphone in the other?? I'm just amazed by this.

I've been tryin to catch that one myself the past few weeks when it's on late night HBO, but seems every time I flip around I always catch it halfway through. Looked like it is pretty good though.

Quick was great for sure. We started off with a very good 1st period putting the pressure on them but it seemed almost like that goal they got just took all the drive and aggression out of the team for some reason. The better team won that game. Hopefully we perk back up and are able to take the bronze.

I went to the theater and saw it when it came out lat year. I actually really enjoyed it, not quite as detail driven as The Untouchables but still a good gangster movie.

Naw it was only Women's hockey, we'll wait till the real Hockey at 11am today starts (Men's) then we'll decide if it's time to invade eh! If it does come to invading then there'll be Labatt blue and vinegar coated fries all over the streets of Windsor after we're done with them

In all honesty that game was decided by the referee, he should be ashamed of himself for those late biased calls he made. In OT one of the Canadian players put a very nasty crosscheck on one of the US girls right in front of the net so they called a penalty just like they should have. Then about 30 seconds later the ref called a slashing call on one of the US girls, there was not even a hint of anything that could be considered slashing. Even the Canadian announcers on CNBC said it was a bad call and simply was done to even the sides since it was OT. Then right after that we got a 2nd penalty (which was deserved) but that left us with 30 seconds of 5-3 play when that Canadian got out of the box and there is no way a team can prevent a goal when it is 5-3. It never should have been 5-3 because that ref called a bogus penalty on the US team. I don't mind our team losing fair and square, but when a gold medal game is decided because of a ref's bullshit call which never should have happened then that just bugs me.

Complete shock that the Russians got knocked out in the very first round of eliminations in hockey

LMAO! :lol:

Always been a big fan of them. Burden In My Hand is still one of my fav songs even today.

And yet more fodder for the "Out of context" thread LOL
