excellent... Jamie, you need a haircut... maybe something like Scott has...???
Bogger, I'll find your 3/4 bulks today...let me know if you get out of work before 9... I will call you in a few...I'm planning on going to Grizz's today and drop off some bags of flake food for him and check out his tank...

Oh, and please everyone, no more fun and games on here... I feel the hate flowing through the RCmod's....I guess it's ok to belittle someone if your a long time member or friends with a monkey...??? So no more comical retaliation...laughter is NOT prohibited unless your in the "RC Lounge~Humor Questionable ~Enter At Own Risk!" area... I could only imagine what it's like in there...side splitting humor I assume... Bogger, thats where we will post your new pictures I am working on of your project later....I know you wont cry about them. Looks like Jamie did a great job of helping, he's a night owl and doesn't mind staying up late... he filled me in on everything last night. I will have you guys over this week for tea and crumpets...you can see my plans for the T5 deal.... I was telling my friend Breadman in your last/2nd post about the lighting order before your post was shut down for some reason.....

p.s. when you guys come by, I want to re-shoot that pic in front of my tank with you jamie, and petey before we switch the lights...

Gee my ears were burning.

There's such a thing as carrying things too far, and some members forget they aren't the only one's in the club. Shocking as it may seem not everyone appreciates some of the humor here.

rudereefer your sarcasm is duely noted, you could have just enjoyed this thread without it.
