I might get a triggerfish,
Are those the dudes that look like they have hillbilly teeth?

I know what you mean though about the aggressiveness of some fish until they get fat and happy. We always knew when our Oscars were going on another growth spurt because they would start attacking the plecos we had in the tank with them or they'd single one Oscar out and destroy it. No biggie on the Plecos. They'd just throw up their spines and dare them. The Oscars on the other hand... our White Tiger Oscar didn't fair too well one day. He was no match for two 12 inch tank bosses. Keep those things where they almost constantly have a goldfish tail sticking out of their grill and they are gentle as can be.

Triggers do have some big chompers... but not as big as puffers. I have to give this Bugs Bunny tooth clams so that he can saw down his grill... the teeth keep growing.

Most triggers are crazy insane aggressive once they reach a larger size... which is what I need so the grouper won't try and feast on it. I've read stories about triggers being added to a tank and instantly killing everything with their crazy chomper teeth. There are a few species that aren't as aggressive.... but I'm not sure yet.

You would not want this puffer to take a bite out of you... it could chomp through bone.

Every 10-11 years or so I buy a new vehicle. Always a base model - that tends to be the best deals, since dealerships get kickbacks from the manufacturers on number sold, not as much from the add ons, etc.

Thursday was a Kia Soul, after an Elantra in 2005, and a Protege in 1995.

Just bought some land in North Carolina yesterday.
Gonna sit on this one for about 15 years, because it's gonna quadruple in value.
1.91 acres in a private gated community up on a mountain.

Can you drop a cabin on that you'll be in heaven way before 15 years -
hope the restrictions aren't too insane / but that looks like one lovely piece of land, nicely wooded
Nice job - probably the best purchase you'll ever make
Congrats brother

I've already got some land further south that we're building on in NC. That place is awesome. Every morning there are deer hanging out on the lot (I don't hunt), and it's a very quiet development with year round mountain views. I'm saving this one I just bought for the investment. It's got an HOA of about 57 a month, and the taxes aren't too bad. There are only so many lots in this place, and once they're all gone, the price is going up significantly. Can't really have a better investment than land.

Thanks for the gratz.

Guys, this watch is the shit. I can either pair it with my phone via bluetooth, or use it as a stand alone device. Pay $5 a month for a separate number. so when I dont want to carry my phone with me I dont have to.Emails, text phone calls can all be answered either by voice or swiping. Keyboard is a little small but what could you expect.

Go out for a run and can either play music stored on he phone, or stream it from a multitude of sites. Havent really messed around with the camera, but doesnt really matter, think its only like 2 MP anyway

Battery life hard to judge because I am always messing around with something on it. At this point I charge it up when I get home after work because it is down to 20% or so, but thats with heavy use

I bought these two Kandinsky Shower Curtains today, along with a black towel, white hand towel, and red washcloth bathroom set for my wife's Mother's Day present. She's a huge Kandinsky fan. I hope she has a good time decorating our powder rooms!

I wrote a rhyming riddle Poem ensconced inside my wife's Happy Mother's Day Envelope giving clues to my Sweet Heart's shower curtain and towel set gift. I'm lame...I know.

Wow Faceplant, that thing is a sledgehammer SUV!

Bought a Cybertron Borg pc with Windows 10. It's a computer mainly for gamers but I figured it would work out just as well for the music production I do. The blue looks awesome in the dark. :)

I just bought a 2016 Mazda CX-5. Well a few weeks ago actually.

Also got one of these since the woman I am involved with has two kids, 12 and 6 years old, and going to the beach is a major production so she needed one of these to stuff all the things they need.........errrr.....think they need into to make getting from the parking lot to a spot on the sand easier and faster. It was for me as much as her since I was always the one carrying everything while they scampered off into the water. I got it for 50 bucks at Costco. They had a display set up and I couldn't get it into my cart fast enough LOL.
