November Meeting - "A dream in motion, but not nearly complete"

[scooters reef]

But, we wouldn't tell

 

[gooch]

I would love to come but I am going to be in pursuit of a nine pointer or better. Got an 11 pointer in Canada,and a 10 pointer bowhunting last weekend. I need a nine or better to acumulate 30 points. If that happens before then I will try to show up.

[RCS]

Looks like I'll be there this weekend.

What plans are there for foodstuffs? I'm used to meetings where lots of food is provided.

Anyone for a pot-luck?

 

[scooters reef]

Deep fried urchin?

 

[yaitisme]

Somebody bring a deer and you'll have surf and turf, get lots of butter. Hope you didn't pluck all the long fondu spines!

 

[RCS]

Actually, if things go the way I'm expecting, I may be able to take that urchin off your hands this weekend. Tank is filling, live sand is ready to go in, and live rock will be following. I'm not expecting a cycle, though it will be all new water...

 

[scooters reef]

Great! (Except for the trying to get him out of the tank part).

I'll PM my contact info. Any time is fine if you're ready. I could also bring it in a bucket to the meeting, but not sure how long it would be ok in it. Also, if you want to stop here on the way back from the meeting, it wouldn't add much to your total drive time to detour here on the way.

 

[RCS]

I'll let you know by tomorrow how things look. I just dumped some sand in and it's a little cloudy, but it'll either clear up or I'll fill it with fresh water starting tonight and it will be ready to go either way.

Bucket should be fine I would think...

 

[jandlms]

If the urchin falls thru theres always fricaseed (sp) firefish.

 

[Lishoop6]

I'll bring the veggies for those that are afraid :thumbdown of those deep fried urchins and fricaseed (sp) firefish not a lot but enogh for a nibble :twitch: :twitch: for the rabbits

 

[yaitisme]

Looks like I will be able to make it.

 

[jmkarcz]

Awesome. I'm going to pickup some beer, soda, and ligh munchies... do I need to post a poll? or would a 24 of bud or light be ok?

I was also thinking maybe a group photo... if everyone was game.

 

[scooters reef]

I'm only picky when buying my own beer. However, free beer is ALWAYS just the right flavor

Well, I can think of a couple rare exceptions to that rule.

 

[Lishoop6]

As long as the Picture is a little after 5 so I'm there.

 

[scooters reef]

Oh, we get to see your coin collection too? Also, you any good with grading? I recently added a 1854 large cent I would guess at MS-62. Have posted in message boards and had comments both higher and lower. Even if only AU though, that I know is a solid bet, not bad for finding it in a box of my Grandmothers full of Indian cents and a mix of silver dollars I've always stunk at grading, so even anothers guess seeing it up close would be handy, and I can bring it along.

 

[iceman5]

i will be coming count for 1 here

 

[jmkarcz]

No luck here...eight Scooter. I just buy. I'm not that serous. I understand your message - but lack the knowledge and expertise to act on it accordingly. Sorry. But you can see the basics I've been collecting. I collect more than just the state quarters but not enough to insure anything I have.

I'll look for ya iceman, happy to have another person, hope I have enough chairs...

Lishoop, I'll wait till we start to break up, no promises, go at the point when there are the greatest number of warm bodies...

Does anyone have anything they want me to take a look at to fix... Scooter, didn't you have something like a skimmer or a reactor that wasn't working? Anything that needs a look at?

Oh, Scooter, I got 3 cases of Schlitz Lite on sale... Or I coulda got Point or Point NA.

Jason

 

[yaitisme]

NA, why bother!

 

[jandlms]

I think I saw a case of Buckhorn in the back of the fridge. I could maybe bring that.
