OK! Enough chat...Starting a 1000g+ Reef

[jnarowe]

damn coraline.

Feeling a little better right now...

Marc, I have been reasonably tight lipped over the last 18 months about the issues I have had with the Vortech line out of respect for these guys trying to launch a revolutionary product. That in no way diminishes the struggle I have had with the product.

I have had my pumps out for service many times and have championed Eco-Tech's cause in numerous ways. I still don't have enough of them because we haven't gotten to a point where they are ALL running well. The ones I have fans on are performing extremely well and running at 100%

Prior to this recent acute crazing, I have had them craze my tank in several places. It has been difficult to stay positive. I am sure there is still more to this story to come.

I can't talk too much...the sides of my tank are beginning to look like Sparkss'! :eek2: :eek1:

:lol:

Tom's tank...not mine.

Thats strange. I posted pictures of my tank the other day and now they cannot be viewed in the thread on the prevous page in this thread. Yet when you follow the link to the pictures they are there....strange they worked for a day or 2 then are now just empty boxes.

That is strange. Looks like the image tags were removed because they are still on the other board. You never know what the mods are going to do on RC. A couple days ago they closed a thread because some RC MEMBERS were discussing someone who is no longer a member. Good pics though!

Sorry I haven't been around guys...I am really sick. Got 4 perscriptions today mostly involving strep throat. I feel like I am going to freakin' die. Never had this before. I have been bed-ridden since Sunday.

 

[mrcrab]

sounds like the clap to me.

Hope you feel better.

 

[gkarshens]

Drink more whiskey! Always works on my sore throats.

 

[melev]

Hot tea, thick honey (the kind you have to stir), lemon, sugar, and crown royal. You'll be better in no time.

 

[jnarowe]

Thanks guys. And Marc, how did you get my Grandma's recipe??? That's really naughty eh?

Andrea just got home and our main cashier is out with it too. So she is braving the Christmas rush by herself. The timing is horrible, but then again, it always seems to be. I won't be able to go to the PSAS Holiday Party this weekend and that really bums me out. It feels normal to be is a room filled with wack-jobs.

You're not the only guy with a grandmother.

Because mine was in Switzerland, she had access to some amazing honey. It was thick, and came in a metal bucket from a local farmer/bee keeper. It seemed like it was about one gallon's worth in that bucket, and you spread it with a knife on some delicious farmers bread (Basler Halb-weis). I have searched for similar honey here in the states and so far haven't found anything even close.

Crap, now I miss Switzerland even more than before this post. *sigh*

 

[jnarowe]

got plenty of Swiss stuff at my store! We have a lot of mom & pop honey makers in our county so I always have a nice qt or two of raw honey.

 

[melev]

Then get off your computer and go mix up a nice hot beverage so you'll feel better.

Heck, I might make one myself just for the fun of it.

Hey dude it's only Thursday so don't count yourself out yet! Besides, Vicki is really looking forward to us being there.

 

[sherm71tank]

Oh yeah. Totally off topic here. Since I have the room in the Fusion I'm in the process of putting a nice little sound system together (I missed the one I had in the Bravada really bad!). So far I'll have 2200 watts rms of subs and the stock tweets and full range drivers for mids and highs. Probably be a few weeks before I get it all installed and dialed in but I'm really excited! The subs I picked out weigh 30 pounds each!

We had a nice company x mas party today at the My Girl Diner in Kingston. It was neat, lots of REALLY old cars in next to mint or mint condition, air hockey games and such, and old pictures of the area around here on most every wall. The 50's music was more than I could take but it was still fun.

Hope you get to feeling better FAST ! ! !

 

[jnarowe]

but did you get the bonus man?

I don't want to get anyone else sick. Doc says it will be a few days before I feel better. Yesterday I was hallucinating fairly often. Thought there was a bug in my hair. I'd take a shower, get out, and it would feel like a bug was crawling around on my head. Rinse and repeat. Brain injuries are sweet.

Do you really need all that sound in a corporate car? Why don't you just get an iPod like the rest of us?

 

[sherm71tank]

I got a decent bonus, not the best I've had but it was still good. You must really be in bad shape then.
Why does it have to be a corporate car?
Did I need the v-6? Did I need the AWD? Do I need the programmer that I'll get for it? NO. But I WANT IT!!!!!

 

[Micki]

I would think in 2 days and if you are on antibiotics, you should be contagious free.

 

[steve the plumb]

That or nuke yourself by drinking as much booze as you can.Sterilize the body with alcohol (the kind you drink)This is why man created Jack Danielle's whiskey to fix problems like this(and other problems)Drink and be merry its x mas(Bah hum bug) I am not a big x mas fan(my wife can a test to that.Dam I forget my wifes birthday is in a few days and I didn't get her a gift.

 

[jnarowe]

I coughed for an hour straight last night between 3 am and 4 am. chest feels like a lead balloon, but without the air.

 

[Hop]

That's not fun. Hope the weekend shapes up. You know scraping panes and taking pics always makes me feel better:lol:

 

[jnarowe]

I am not even going into my tank room. and of course, timing what it is, the LiterMeter needs its maint. on pump one. I think it has shut itself down, but I don't want to go in there and cough.
