Hi folks!

[crumbletop]

Hello all!

I haven't been around for a while, and I'll probably still be a rare sighting for the next couple of months. I've been absolutely swamped for the past year with work + night/weekend grad school classes + family. Needless to say, the tanks haven't seen much work on them (I still haven't finished aquascaping the Red Sea Max). Just wanted to drop in and say hello and let you all know I'm still alive

I don't think I know you yet but, At the ETRC frag swap yesterday I was asked how you were and weather you are still Involved with the club. Just thought I'd pass that along, And good to see you on the board....

Ah, the illusive crumbletop, much like the mythical jackalope often spoken about but rarely seen. Your absence from the forums has not been a big selling point for the MMHA program for me. I figured you've been busy with your studies.

Good to "see" you Jack

I told Bill all kinds of bad things yesterday:lol:

LOL. Yeah -- I've been out of it. The MMHC program is a great one, IMO -- just taking up a fair amount of time. I'm having to pace myself, and the fact that my work responsibilities went way up this year doesn't help much.

Hi, Chris! So I missed the ETRC swap Hope it went well, and hope you had a great turnout! I recall from somewhere that you are also swamped with rotations right now? Out of the classroom and out with the animals?

Glad to know you're still alive, Jack.

Be sure to let us know where you're graduation party is! :lol:

The swap was great. I barely made it myself
The turnout was good considering it's summer, the economy etc....

School is going well and keeping me busy and yes I'm working on animals now which is nice

Good to hear from you Jack, thanks for dropping in to say hi, look forward to your studies being finished, so you can finish up the red sea max

 

[commonstranger]

Good hearing from you Jack wish you the best with your studies.

 

[HowardCath]

Good to hear from you, Jack. Best wishes and good luck. Only so many hours in a day and you can't burnout on family.

... and Tim, count me in for one of those jackalopes the next time we do a group order.

 

[crumbletop]

Thanks, guys. I think jackalopes go for about $100/inch. When I get back into things, I'll hold a piece for ya!

 

[NeveSSL]

Don't forget, Jack, that I've still got some nuc greens and purple deaths for your RedSea Max when you get ready.

Brandon

 

[crumbletop]

Thanks, Brandon. I had forgotten. That's a little extra incentive to get the tank back in order

 

[NeveSSL]

The purple rimmed green cap you traded me for those a while back is now about 10x the size it was when you gave it to me! Its growing really well!
