Good almost-afternnon (Eastern Time Zone)
to :): coff coff::) everybody!

So far:
3,361 extrapolated miles per YEAR on new car.
I'm running it ragged!

$206 on "stuff" beyond gas and cost of car.

I keep track of all that crap. Numbers

Me.

I didn't do a running total (non-gas) thing with the
previous car, but I do have every receipt for those
14 years. Whatta pile! I think I'd be nauseated to
know the answer.

Gas was $12,791 for all that time. That's $2.55 a
day, FYI, gas alone. (So far it's $2.15 a day with
the new vehicle.)

See what I mean?

    Yes. 9.2 miles a day SO FAR.

    I gotta get out more. :) :roll: :rofl:

    Hmmm...

    What is the code??

    :rolling:

    ???

    Well, you know what I mean.
    I have no idea what I’m doing now but it’s not much since I go to town maybe once in two weeks and no where else. About an 18 mile round trip.

    HEY TIB...

    Cloudy aquarium.

    Been battling this for a couple/few months now. Water changes,
    filter media changes. Good for a few days, then goes all murky
    again. Replaced "decorations"... vacuumed the gravel. Started
    using "Algae Fix" and "Accu-Clear", but don't like all those extra
    chemicals. I did another water change yesterday, down to about
    2" from the gravel... about 90%.

    I'm thinking a complete cleaning and changing of substrate...
    which means setting up a whole temporary tank in the meantime.
    Whatta pain... and I know from doing it before.

    Any words of wisdom?

    Who has time for that???

    I hate the aquarium and warn everybody to just NOT get one.

    Some have said to just let all the fish die and then be rid of it.

    not really, bear - no more aquarium here. lost the last fish 2 or 3 months ago. not sure what happened but i found him on the floor next to the tank. i'm still puzzled how he managed - 95% of the top was covered by lights and a hood

    :(

    Reminds me of way way way back... when I was still
    living at home with parents. WAY way way back. I mean
    it. Early '70s??? A goldfish was stepped on by me... and
    my Mon crunched a hermit crab. And made ME clean it up.

    In BOTH cases, there was a cover.

    :( and ???
