Check out Discovery Cove in Orlando. They are just his cup of tea. They also specialize in Autistic interaction. :)

Yeah he doesn’t care about any type of animals at all. He’s more the mechanical type. Taken him to the zoo a few times and even Shedds. His favorite part of Shedds was the slide he didn’t care about the fish and at zoo he spends his time looking for sewer caps. But if take him to Discovery world he’ll spend all day play with the gears and figuring out how they work. We had cat and he never payed any attention to it. Even when I had a tank he didn’t care.

I was there a long time ago. All kinds of intricate mechanisms that did all sorts of things. Transportation, agriculture and manufacturing stuff with some interesting history..

good morning all but not so good for me at all this happened wednesday

just as everything wa sgoing so well DISASTER

my light fell in my DT while i was at work ,my wife rang but by the time i got home she had removed it but the damage was done a yellow substance had come out the light ,which i can only think was led cement

i think all my corals will die they all have string **** coming off them ,and have lost 3/4 of my fish too ,the skimmer was going nuts ,i could not keep up with it ,but its under control now

put some new carbon in i will keep changing this every 2 days i think

will do water changes every day now too for a week or so ,i ordered a icp test to see what is going on even though this will take

and will be getting a polyfilter today to help

SO SO GUTTED AS EVERYTHING WAS DOING SO WELL AT THE MOMENT AND THE WIFE WANT ME TO SELL IT ALL NOW AS WELL

which i will not do , i ordered another light yesterday will be here today ,but this is going to be a very,very slow comeback ,as all my money is tied up in the house renovations till the end of the year ,which i must get done with our 1st grandchild due in December

so the fightback begins

I am so sorry to hear that, Richard. It is one of those crazy things I worry about happening, and there to see it happen. It sucks, but you will bring it back.

Good morning
Oven has been broke for 3 weeks. We got a home warranty as part of the deal on the house.
It's a joke. I ordered the part and will fix it myself.
I can fix most anything electrical or mechanical. I didn't because the warranty should pay for it but I would like to cook something again. It must be a nightmare for people that cant do stuff themselves.
The seller paid $700 for the warranty and we paid the service guy $95 when he came 2 weeks ago. He only shows/calls in the evening on weekends and doesn't answer his phone through the week. What kind of repair person calls you at 7pm on a Saturday night out of the blue? He doesnt even have a voice mail greeting set. According to his message from last Saturday he has had the parts all week.
The part was $17 and will be here Tuesday.

I am considering filing a complaint with the state AG consumer dept. It's seems like a scam to me.

Had a random call from a buddy about a rare bottle I just picked up late last night.. yay.. another $650 spent. This is getting more expensive than my fish hobby
I hope that comes with a Bond Girl and a happy ending

Sounds like a weekend warrior and a side job thing he probably works full time at the Porcelain Palace
