I’m gonna need you guys to bring the taste level back down a bit. :face-with-raised-eyebrow:
I'll do my best but the Mrs is deep into fine art acquisition for the curriculum she's working on, so I'm saturated in it.
Thank you! So I can stop seeing myself with these guys in a gallery, "See how the artist utilizes light to draw us into the internal struggle of the subject?" "Yes, but I also note how the artist uses contemporary references like the subject's reading material to show the value of a short break as a means of catharsis."
Me: "Huh, huh, they put Leia in her gold bikini in the corner. Sweet!"
And he places the work in contemporary time with his use of pop culture books; despite being from a time long ago in a galaxy far far away. This bespeaks an intimacy with all creation. Showing us we aren't all that different from each other.

Not too too bad, but could probably come down a bit. TBF, I've seen stellar SPS tanks run at 1.0. Is everything happy?
Wasn't that reef guru's, the one who died last year and who's name I forgot from that website the name of which I also forgot, tank high po4? I think I remember watching a talk he gave on nutrient control and the obsession with keeping them low.
Not high end or refined but I have 2 Bev Doolittle prints. Bought one for my 40th birthday present to myself. Loved it since i was a kid and it was in Ranger Rick.

Are you a golfer, by chance? Your use of the term "dawn patrol" is a dead giveaway.

I just have a Keurig sitting next to me with a box of pods... I don't get to take a break.
Yeah, that was me before I retired. I had a coffee bar in my office. My staff used to joke that I had a coffee cup surgically implanted in my hand.

Ha no ... We have this thing here where I live where people in the cooler months fill large "bags" of nylon/polyester material that is shot up with a flame from a large propane tank that then us used as a recreational means of travel over the town. In October there is a Rodeo where hundreds are launched .
It is usually an early am activity and "dawn patrol"

I'll take, "What is 'hot air ballooning' for 1000, Ken".

In golfing parlance, "Dawn Patrol" are the early birds (like me) that prefer teeing off with the sunrise.
