    Aggies vs. Texas Tech

    I've got a B.S. in Forestry Science and Keg Beer. Never did get the minor in chew though... Now I work out in San Diego for the County doing GIS and making maps. It's boring but I live in a great place and I also work 4 10's. Gotta love 3 day weekends every weekend!

    Brewed new beer!

    So this past weekend I went through the process of bottling my latest beer. Off a recomendation (for something akin to Guiness) I did an Imperial Stout. I have my doubts as to how it'll actually be like Guiness for several reasons. 1, the put skunked guiness in guiness when making it. I did...

    Aggies vs. Texas Tech

    I never made it to Lubbock. I'm ATM class of '99 btw. My folks live near Houston and their neighbors are good friends of theirs. Their eldest tried to get into A&M but wasn't accepted, so he became a longhorn instead (rah rah rah hisssssssssssssss). Their next eldest decided she wanted...

    other pets?

    I'd love to get a dog but I have no time to adequetly take care of one. So I have a reef tank and they seem to do well being left alone 15hrs at a time.

    The Grudge

    I see evil Isopods in my sleep. They scare me more than anything else.

    Aggies vs. Texas Tech

    Amen to that! Couldn't watch the game out here in Cali, the USC game was on ABC instead. Now if we can only beat the longhorns.....

    I hear you, catching pods (espically the evil kind) is a huge pain in the butt. Sitting and checking your tank hour after hour to see if something else crawled out is so infuriating.

    Just got home after a night out and I pulled 8 more evil no-good "Axis of Evil" 'pods out of my tank. I've got 'em lined up next to the others but one thing I learned, let 'em dry out in the air before you attempt to move them around otherwise they just curl up into balls. Another tip for...

    I'm having "timing out" problems with my net connection. I can't figure out what it is, but I have a sneaking suspicion that it has something to do with Microsoft Service Pack 2. Ever since I installed that thing my PC hasn't worked right. I couldn't get the pic of me to load. I'll keep...

    Phischy's Project: PtII-New Critters

    Maybe I'm just strange. Maybe I'm just "Something Phischy" but I seem to do better huntin' 'pods when I'm "in character". They plan on attacking my tank, I plan on attacking them. And in the end I bagged these evil a-holes, and as promised, I'm linin' 'em up next to the first one...

    Be vewwwy vewwwy quiet....I'm hunting 'pods! The picture turned out pretty good, considering how small that bugger is. I'm going to line up all his buddies next to him. I found this harpoon on ebay: There's the big guy, and two smaller ones that I've got to catch. It's going to be...

    Evil Pod! Here is one of the evil little boogers. I saw the big kahuna but he was too fast, and I don't think he'll actually fit in the 'pod blaster either. I may have to harpoon him to get him out. "Argghhhh, thar she squiggles...."

    The 'pod may drink my beer! I'm not sharing my beer with any lowely scavanging bug! Not when they won't leave my tank when I ask nicely, no sir, I'm not giving those bugs my beer!

    help restocking a crashed nano

    How many lbs of rock do you have? Is there anything really worth saving? It sounds like you may want to write this entire tankfull of algea off to learning expierence. If I were you I'd dig a 2' hole in the ground, lug the tank out there and dump everything in, cover hole. scrape out all...

    Will do. They're itty bitty boogers so I'll have to try. My camera doesn't like macro photography super well, you really have to see their beady little evil eyes. I swear they glow red when the lights are off. I'll get to work on it tomorrow. I just realized I need two Turkey Blaster...

    Screw Microsoft!

    Everyone, You may or may not have heard of the new web-browser that is hitting the market today. For those that remember, Netscape was the premier browswer back in '94 until Microsoft started supplying their Internet Explorer packaged with their OS. It was and always has been inferior but...

    "I am Phishcy Wallace, and I see a tank full of my countrymen being attacked by the evil isopods. We will fight the enemy now, and show them what true Scot-phisches we are, or we can run. And many years from now lie dying in our beds wishing for just one chance, one chance, to return here to...

    Hey, it Could happen!!! That's all I'm sayin'. Well, I finally ID'd my pod problem once I saw one big enough to see it's beady little eyes. And this guy is a big'un. I found this article: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-05/rs/index.htm Which goes into the nasties. Sho'nuff...

    Only one is big enough to potentially cause problems. The way I had to plumb my tank due to the drawers was to put 2 45d bends in my 2.5" pipe. I could just imagine that big sucker gettin' up and in there and deciding, "Hmmm....I wonder where how deep this rabbit hole goes?" and taking a dive...
