    LMAO... I know... I have a problem with typing novels too often

    Beer: I'm a wuss and love a good wheat or white ale but I'm also a cheap date who's good to go with a budlight, milker lite, or coors

    Paintings: Here's a few

    Thanks Al! I've drawn/sketched discus, but never painted. I'd be willing to do a discus painting and if it turned out good enough, I'd donate it. Or if folks rather have something else painted if winning a contest, I'd do it.

    Darn Elliot, love your paintings. What medium are you using? I started out as an art student back in the day.

    THANKS PAT! I'll use canvas or wood. Acrylics for now but soon will transition to oils (around November).

    I wish I took pics of all paintings I did, but here are a few more (some that are not done... 1 in particular with the photograph of the scene)

    Temporarily with baby bass as "coal miner's canaries". Still need to trim-out portions and install proper lighting, but it's functional.

    Baby bass will be released next week. Unsure what I'll stock it with for the winter

    Very cool . ...but I assure you
    , Al... there WILL be discus in there (not with bass!). It may not be until next Spring, though. Unless I get a solid pair out of my current group of discus,... then I'll use it as a grow out.
