Washington, or NW meet(s) discussion

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yea i've been listening to all the snow stuff in the mountains everynight... How are you doing with all this snow????? Hopefully all is well.. As for the order it's through NE Cichlids and we're doing the airport to airport shipping just because of all the bad weather and it's just to darn cold to ship ground right now.
 
Well, it's like umm, Honey? Where's the truck? You know, the dual cab big Ford??? All I see is tunnels and igloos? And a really hungry Bobcat just sits outside in my tree growling, a cougar stole the deer meat, I broke 2 snow shovels, there's over 1 ft of solid ice frozen to the roof under the snow, and the stupid snowplow dumps the road snow in the driveway entrance, so it's like dig out the truck and whip a bunch of 360's to "spray plow" my driveway, I'm quite proud of my antics, they're quite effective as long as you go fast enough!!!! No mail, ummm it's cool! I grew up in the Arabian Desert I still am mad over snow!!!! Snow Baby Snow!!! Bad news, this ranch is 200 acres! Poor horses. Poor Cattle. Poor animals. My barn is a wild animal zoo, I don't go in unarmed, it would suck to corner a cougar by accident!

good indian fireworks work well for local avalanche control!!!!:naughty:muhahaha:naughty:

I'll try for the next order? Looking for a white pleco with blue eyes.
 
I know you live over the mountains but where??? How in the world did you go from the arabian desert to the mountains of washington...Talking about shock to your system... And as far as the pleco are you talking an albino or what kind??? There's one at a lfs in kirkland that's albino and like 12" at least...He's looks really cool...
 
I thought my part was done with snow, but we're getting some heavy slush/snow right now.
It's falling fast but the ground is wet so its not really building up...

I would go in on the group order, but It's not enough time for me to get a tank ready.
If theres ever a Rapps order, count me in.

Still trying to figure out what to do with my 35G :nilly:

Yeah, white or Albino but Blue eyes not red, my lfs waited a year and sold it without calling me, I am still PO'd!

Crud, the Blizzard just started spewing again.

Arabia? Long story, my parents are wacky, My Grandpa was a Geologist in Arabia, then bought a Game Farm in Kenya, then my Dad did the Geolgist thing, then it was all over the planet, blah lah blah it was cool though. Americans have NO idea have good they have it! Oh we got kicked out when the Gulf War was going to start, intell /CIA knew way before, so it's nice not living where the Air raid sirens send one scrambling for the bomb shelter, that was a little scary for a kid, but happened often so it was kinda normal too.
Human hands hanging on the compund fence was really nasty! (for thieving)
And camel tastes really nasty. Kinda like a skanky old pine forest Muley!
 
Well as far as the pleco goes i'm like 90% sure it's albino, the thing i loved about it is it was in a blacked out tank and it was solid white.. Honestly didn't pay attention to the eyes.LOL.. Boy that's a real life you've lived!!! I've beeen in the gulf several times but i was usually on base. As you can probably guess i'm a military guy..LOL..
 
Yeah, it was the blue instead of red eyes that I loved. Stupid lfs

So you've prob. been to my old stomping grounds, Dhahran, Al Khobar, Abquaiq, Rastanura and The Damman camel market! There was no military base there when I was there. No plumbing ouside the International compound either! Just hammams! They get kinda mad if you run over a camel!!!

Thanks for you service, I respect you immensely for it. I grew up walking past dead bodies in the streets, it certainly left an impact. Until we can realize the drive behind their wars is based on religion, we'll never probably accomplish much. A truly beautiful and misunderstood people for the most part. And a handful that royally screw it up for the rest!
 
Yea i've been to a couple of those spots, most places i can hardly even pronounce now. I can't even think about growing up there, and yes until we truly figure out there ways and what makes them tick we'll never understand. And as for your white pleco with blue eyes i'll have to keep my blue eye's peeled for one in a lfs near me.LOL..
 
If it's white with blue eyes it couldn't be albino. Leucistic maybe...

If you want I could explain more. A L # or a scientific name would help a lot as well.

Yeah, I figured the blue eyes meant it wasn't Albino, but the lfs is experiencing cranial rectal inverion, I asked for the L # at the time and i just got a blank stare. God help the fish in that place!

Explain if there's more to learn about them, I basically just really want to get my mitts on one! (but) I am always eager to learn!:)
