Discus Madness
Posted in Uncategorized on December 8, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
We’ve kept 6 Discus (Cichlids from the Amazon) for over a year now. They are named after characters in my favorite Coen Brothers film, The Big Lebowski (The Dude, Jackie Treehorn, Walter Sobcheck, Maude Lebowski, Jesus, and of course little Bunny Lebowski.) We just got a new tank for them- 65 gal. I recently built an aquarium [...]

Hulu is now open to the public. If you haven’t checked it out, you should at least watch a few seasons of Arrested Development. It’s streaming ad-supported video, and the quality and selection could improve (and I expect eventually will), but Hulu is certainly looking in the right direction. I have a feeling once more [...]
Oil and You.

We all like oil. It goes into almost everything around us. The plastic bottle of water, the car you drive, the heat in your house. What a great gift from the past. What a fascinating natural resource. The problem is that when we burn oil it releases carbon into our atmosphere, which causes our planet [...]
