about a week ago i was ahead of you and you just blasted me on the posts and beat me to all the news! LOL

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I'm must admit a slight feeling of competitivness the last week, lol. You started 3 months after me and then one day i realized you had somehow pulled 40 ahead and i was like wtf? . So i decided maybe i should step it up a notch because between you and wrlcoupe (who i can guarantee will have more post than the both of us someday) i was in a pretty sorry state.

Actually i like go out running every now and then (I used to run track and cross country but i'm nowhere near in the type of shape i used to be in highschool). I also like to travel a lot.

Right now i have 2 glocks(21,32) that i go to the range with @ Bob's and i have a 125 gallon tank and hopefully a 300 that i will make and then i play socom 2 online all the time and computers as well. I was into martial arts but i fell out of it when i got married. I'm thinking about getting back into and try to manage school with it.

is that a salt water aquarium? I LOVE those but I have heard it can be a little tricky because of the salinity and all.

Hmm....Forgot about video games. I play Diablo 2 solo and only line, Doom3, and Command and Conquer generals: Zero Hour. And of Course sim city 4. I need to get a higher end computer cause it doesn't handle the new shading technology to well. I was gonna get a PS2 and Xbox this month but after seeing the release of xbox360 and PS3 (can u say wow ) i think i'll wait for those to come out. I'm tired of always being 3 years behind in gaming.

No i have African cichlids in there and they have different water parameters than regular fresh water fish. They have high ph and have some salt. Check this link out to get more info. Cichlid forum

Cool. I have had a couple of betas recently and I even killed them lol. I think I didn't replace their water enough.

You have to cycle the water at the least every 2 weeks about 20-25% or I should say water change.

LOL. My inbox just kept beeping with topic reply notifications. I was like "what the heck?" . It's kinda late to still be at work. You work the late shift or something?

Extra 10% per hour, can't argue with that. I'd be working late too.

I work a couple of nights a week 12-9. It is great sleeping in but that bad part comes after 6-7pm. I start wishing I was somewhere else lol. Getting off that late is the bad part for me.

I agree but i make almost a hundred dollars more a week from working those hours. I hate it around that time too but i think about that extra money and enjoy the time in to sleep but that will go away in the fall when school starts. What do you do for a living?
