For teh w00t.

1.   I took my aquarium water in to be tested today: it passed!  I was able to get a few cichlids.  The only name I remember is: that one of them is a blue acai.  The others were in mixed tanks, so I'm unsure.  The smaller has a bunch of iridescent flecks and I believe I heard the clerk say he might be a "jeweled" sort of fish...  I'll have to take some pictures.

2.   I have been wanting a back lit keyboard for a while now.  So I went to Best Buy and picked up one of these:

G15
G15


2 months ago, it was over $100. Today it was $20.  they updated it with an orange lit version, no turn out display, less g keys: downgrade.  I think I have one game that I can use all the features on, but I didn't really buy it for that.  Now that I'm using it, I love how the display shows time, cpu/mem info, and itunes track currently being played.  It also has two integrated usb ports.  Sweet.

yey for new fishes! I'm guessing the "Juwel something" is a Hemichromis something, maybe one of these ;) Pictures, please!

(I'd make the guy in the store write down the names (pref. latin as well) if I were you-it makes it a lot easier to find info about them (like what food they need, water quality, if they get huuuuge, if they will GLOMP! eat eachother etc))

And wow, fancy keyboard!

Sweet. I'm lookign at maybe getting the G11 or something smaller. I don't need all the G keys. I just like having it backlit.

It's hard to say... He/she is a juvenile... I have to crush up the smallest pellets for him/her and another one I have which kind of looks like an electric yellow. They're barely an inch.

This might be close...

Which kind of looks like a gourami, doesn't it?

It's awesome watching them play.

I don't really need g-keys very much either. I'm wondering if I'd be able to put them to other uses. There were a few other keyboards I liked, one had three different back light colors, another had translucent keys I think... I never really could justify spending over $30 on one though. Not with bills, an insurance payment, and christmas lurking around the corner. When Logitech came out with the new g15s and these began to drop in price, I waited it out and it fell to $20 -- which they don't mark on the box of shelf for some odd reason.

Very funky. I'm loving it more than my last KB (which I loved alot). It sort of looked like this -- only it was older and have more short/function keys. What I disliked about it was that it had default shortcuts for my function keys. This made for a few frustrating tech moments (like hitting f8 during a boot and f8 not working because I forgot to hit the f-lock key -- grr!).

Not a gourami, but a cichlid (no idea of enlish spelling), juwel fish , I've had those-they're cool! But they get aggressive and territorial when they mature, so choose tankmates with care to avoid massacre!

I wasn't able to see the link due to some error... I will have to keep on eye on him then :-/ He's my favorite because he's so tiny and they weren't certain what kind he was. He doesn't have that spot, so I'm still hoping it might be a different variety. He's the smallest of the three so far, unless he has a massive growth spurt the others might be able to start him down. Maybe? No?
