I think I am going to get a salt water aquarium

Very expensive hobby today. I used to do that and sell all the goodies involved.

 

Lots of maintenance Involved?

 

 

There can be, just depends on how committed you are to doing it properly. 

 

 

Like anything else you can cheap out up front and pay more in the long run.

I just really want a basic setup big enough for a couple of jelly fish and a few sea monkeys is it. Maybe a little wiggle room for future upgrades.

 

If you have jelly fish, that is all you have. Very nice, but get boring quick.

 

I would suggest you do some home work before you start thinking you know what you want. At one point I had close to 18k in my reef set up.

 

I don't think I would have enough time if there is a lot involved.The Koi's outside "I think 10" now just get water added every now and then food threw in the pond once a day. And that is actually hard to find the time for atm.

My peak was when I was 265. I only lifted to reps of 6 or more.

Bench was 310, squat was 720, leg press was >1500, deadlift was completely dependant on the rules. My arms are short so I couldn't grab the bar without arching my back on the diameter of a standard 45 pound plate. Of I could use a couple inch risers I could pull up a lot more weight.

[dem beats 1,223]

Upper arms were ~19.75 inches

Forearm sniffed 15

Waist was 34.

Thigh was 32.

Calves tasted 21

At that time my neck was probably closer to 20 inches. It shrunk since high school wrestling a bit.

In a jacket I would wear 55-60L but it had to be the slimmest fit ever. The taper from shoulders to waist was really problematic to find clothes.

And Fuck pants. Denim with 1% or so spandex was my friend.

Drink cranberry juice, it's a diuretic.

Man has evolved into such a civilized being. We used to be so archaic with our dick measuring contests, but now we measure our thighs.

Progress...

he obviously used duck measuring techniques to get a bloated value

When I butcher pigs I turn the pork loin into filler for my sausage. I also add the bacon though. Most of the animal gets ground. Good sausage here is god awful expensive and making your own is so much better anyways. One of the few classic MN meals I love to chow down on too. Some homemade pork sausage is the bomb. Like the fact I get to pet the animal before I eat it too.

I also need an industrial size smoker.

Another reason why it will be nice to move back near home. The FIL has a "smoke house" that they do all their meat processing in, including a good size grinder and the stuff to make sausage.

It's always good but surprises me. We make dried deer/pork sausage and normally it's just make sausage and hang it in the smoke house with a small fire to smoke it and then leave it hanging for a few days in the cold. Seems crazy to me that's all that is needed. To me it is like beef jerky on steroids.

I want some.

I assume you are using ground meat. How do you hold it together?

Casings

I assume small diameter ones?

Not what I consider small diameter. It's close to an inch diameter when fresh

Do you heat it up to eat?

Nope,

The only "heat" I can think of that is applied is smoke. but it's a 12 x 10 room and there is a small fire in a garbage can to smoke the room. After that it's left in the room (during dry, cool conditions) for 1 - 2 weeks.

This is what is looks like after vacuum sealing.

don't need heat with enough smoke I was just wondering what style product it is. I love me some meat sticks

I would suggest you do some home work before you start thinking you know what you want. At one point I had close to 18k in my reef set up.

Sounds like you need a farm so you can pass the time

Yep..I don't think I want to hire a hand to take care of a aquarium yet.

[///M5 2,833]

What do you pay hired hands in those parts?

[///M5 2,833]

And I don't mean your tranny lovers

[mikel7829 90]

What do you pay hired hands in those parts?

Depends.. No less then minimum wage,also there pay is adjusted if the are eligible for benefits considering they are legal of course..And I take in consideration if they are worth a shit or just a extra mouth to feed.
