    any suggestions for hair algae?

    cut back on the lighting by a few hours? cut back on feeding? If worse comes to worse you can pull the rock out and scrub the algae off and see if that helps.

    Party Pranks?

    I saw someone get their entire jeep wrapped in saran wrap before. It took forever to get all of that off.

    Ok, I will offer some not so commonly known medication advice. Tell the dentist that you have a very low pain tolerance. If whatever they give you is helping but not quite enough, you can take 2 Benadryl. It enhances the block on the pain receptors. I tell our patients this all of the time...

    Odd Rituals and Superstitions, who else?

    I won't use a nasty public bathroom (for example, Wal Mart) I will do the pee pee dance forever. I can't go to bed with dirty dishes in the sink. Cannot watch a Nascar race with out wearing flannel pj's with my favorite drivers logo. Refuse to eat out of a buffet. What did someone scratch...

    Dog with broken tail?

    Back to the ibuprofen, dogs can't metabolize it the way humans can and it is actually toxic to them. As is Tylenol. When in doubt, look the Merck Manual up online. I stick with baby aspirin with my dogs. The Merck Manual will let you know how much to give depending on weight. You'd be amazed...

    insects making yardwork impossible :(

    If you feel like taking up another hobby you could always get yourself some chickens. They will eat will eat all kinds of insects-mosquitos, ants, gnats etc. We haven't had a mosquito bite in 3 years. We do however have tons of chicken poop. No prob there. Just compost it.

    Pet peeves

    Tourists that drive 10 mph sight-seeing in the left lane. Gimme a break! I've got places to go. Parents that don't teach their children how to behave in public and the children. No one wants to see a kid suck spaghetti up his nose and pull it out of his mouth. Ok, honestly, with a few...

    why does it seem people are unhappy these days

    I think people tend to lose perspective. When I find myself calling other drivers names I can't post, I just have to remind myself that if this is the worst thing that happens to me all day, then I'm still alright. It works just long enough for someone else to cut me off and I have to start...

    Need help with Anemone--LTA

    I don't know if I would try to feed it right now. May be just a waste of time. Mine only ate when he was fully open. You can never go wrong with a 10% water change.

    Dale leaving DEI?

    I think I remember hearing that they put a limit on how many cars one team can have?T/F? I think Jr's dad would be proud of him for standing up for himself and what he believes in. I also think that if DE was still alive, he would be filing for divorce. Bites that the race was rained out...

    Wisdom Extracted...

    Apricot or peach baby food rocks for dental work. That is if you didn't plan ahead and eat real food while you couldn't feel your face-even though the dentist tells ya not too.
