Driftwood pain in the put pt. 3 (with lots of pics!) - Aquarium Advice

GIMojo · 08-09-2005, 05:39 PM

ok, just this morning i took off the dumbell that was on my driftwood, and hauled it 2 floors to my garden. in my garden i

1) yelled at the driftwood
2) kicked the driftwood
3) then i flipped over the driftwood and threw rocks into the hollow inside.
4) i now smashed those rocks with the weight i took off of it.
5) then as i picked up the driftwood to put it in the garden, i realized, this son of a cow is friggin heavy and i practically made a big crack on the side. so im like "well, lets see how floatty you are in the POND" So i chucked it in the pond and what do you know... it sinks
6) I hauled it, now 3x heavier UP 2 stories, and let it drop in my tank... where it sits on the bottom of my tank.

all of this... without slates

BEFORE!!

AFTER!!

AFTER AFTER

I also put this thing that came in with a microwave my mom just bought on the tank... see lol

Moral of the story, all problems are solved with violence and verbal abuse!

Yeah, I just started soaking a piece of driftwood I found on the beach last week. So far it's floating like a cork....I don't have high hopes. lol

It's weird that beating it to death actually helped...showed it who's boss I suppose.

I shall apply this solution next time my computer acts up. Just open it up, smack around the CPU, say bad things about it's mother (Intel) and everything should run great. Sadly, I don't think this method will help solve my problem with getting a girlfriend. [acronym:a8bf2d3df4="Laughing out loud"]LOL[/acronym:a8bf2d3df4].
