Re: Bobby's tank build.

Yeah, yeah foam and little pirate ships, castles, mermaids, scuba divers, fake coral and lights and, and...... Actually the foam lots like it will blend in well after the coralline covers it. But, gee, foam? My tanks walls just get covered with lots, and lots, and lots of bulkheads holes and pump inlet boxes. Just 14 bulkhead holes in the 120 gallon tank, but 4 are plugged and under the sand bed. Is covered with holes proper use of the english language? Full of holes? Thank God I never decided to pick up a minor degree in English.

Re: Bobby's tank build.

I do not know. I hope he does not think I rubbed his nose in pooh or something. I have been accused of being quite tactless, blunt and "yes" even obnoxious. Even Doc Marco, HEE, HEE, doesn't like me. I do not think I am powerful enough to make that much of a difference. No?

Well attacking a mans profession will do that to a guy, anyways I think that bobby has a new baby that has taken up his time, at least thats what I gather.

Re: Bobby's tank build.

Bobby was going to school to become a mechanical engineer and get into the HVAC trade.
That may be taking up all his time.

Who,s profession did I attack this time? Hell, you ought to here be attack my professioin(s). I am an equal oppurtunity *sshole. There are a few professions I really do not like and that probably shows. Law enforcement, Law, politics, religion, head shrinking, and I definitely do not idolize medical doctors. I admire anyone who persists long enough in dealing wiyh our educational system and obtaining a doctotates degree, or even an undergraduate degree. I do not really understand why anyone would work in the field of physics or mathematics education either. In general I like people in the trades professions: welding, equipment operators, carpenter, plumbers, electricians and even HiVac people. I envy (sorta) biologists and chemists. Overall though law enforcement officers, judges, lawyers and politicians are at the bottom of my list.

So sad when you judge a person from their profession.

I was addressing EVERYONE involved in the hijacking, not just one person.
