The fights were usually pretty colorful, but they’d always have to clean-up the ‘red ice’ and delay the game, until the next fight. I remember 2 of the Chicago Blackhawks - Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita - back in the 60s, and it was fast action.
no, something is up...he is just a shell today....bet it is the IRS crap

Banned National Lampoon Ad
The National Lampoon Encyclopedia of Humor
(1973)
That was a spoof ad run in National Lampoon. They caught all kinds of hell for that from VW North America. Heh.
Here’s one of their TV ads by DDB (Doyle, Dane, Bernbach) Advertising:

Catfish are good last week we had grilled swordfish and this week mutton snapper,hard to beat.
Hi and have a good and blessed day!
Cheerios, LOL! Never thought of that....nor hand feeding, but I always stood around while they were dining.
Don’t think I can be of much help on this, but FWIW:
My koi only liked Tetra Pond Floating Koi (and/or Vibrance) Sticks....period. Back of box has a feeding/winterizing schedule. I tried the flakes one year (no go). IIRC, they had a different nutritional composition. Even tried Tetra sticks with a different nutritional composition. No go.
I started to wing it. As the cold weather approached, I started feeding them less and observed how fast they ate the food. When I shut off the waterfall and winterized the pond, I continued to watch their behavior, their sluggishness as they became more dormant and how they responded to food.
I never took the water temp. One advantage that I had that you may not have is that my pond freezes solid every year & stays solid throughout the winter. Don’t know winters in northern VA, but they may fluctuate more wildly than more northern climes.
I bought my koi from a well-respected local nursery, where I also bought most of my trees, shrubs, flowers, etc, etc. I quickly learned who was the most educated to answer my questions on what issues. Usually the managers (but not always) of their respective divisions.
If I were living in northern VA, I would do the same to start off with-—even more than expert advice from the net. Local nurseries like happy regular customers and usually offer excellent advice.
The Federal Government is an entity that makes a mistake, and then repeats it over and over again until the mistake becomes THE LAW OF THE LAND.
I had smoked swordfish at a bar called Ludwig’s in Miami in the 70’s......pure ultra bliss
‘73 & ‘74 were the ‘Super Beetle’ variety.
BTW I get absolutely everything for the pond on Amazon now. From food to chemicals to landscape lights to pumps, it's MORE than half the price or less from my nursery.
Also I'm trying something new for the Blue Heron, a mirror ball that floats around the pond on the current from the waterfall. The reflection is supposed to scare them off. I'll let you know how it works.
As far as freezing, my pond guy says we get 7-18 inches depending on the year. But since my pond is old and built out of concrete he recommended I use a De-Icer so it doesn't crack the bottom. It also gives a place for my birdies to drink in the winter. Got a cheap 1,500 watt one on Amazon.
One can hope that Lois and Obama (and associates) didn't cover their tracks as well as they thought!
What we have here is a tale of FOLLOW THE MONEY.
Currently, we have a mutually beneficial, cave-in system where “both” political parties spend 40 % more money than they take in as income. [ Note: Their word for “Cave-in” is “Bi-Partisan.”]
40 % of the Annual Federal Spending is for Welfare: Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare, Aid to Dependent Children, Food Stamps, Rental Aid to Illegal Alien Invader “children” and adults from Mexico, etc, etc, etc.
365 days X 0.6 = 219 days after October 1 (Fed. Fiscal Year) for non-Welfare, Federal expenses, most of which is for salaries.
After the 219 days, (60 % of a year), or 7.3 months, ( April 9, +/-), are up the Feds either print more money or sell bonds to pay for the rest of the Fed. Fiscal year Welfare expenses.
The rest of the year: April 9 to October 1, the US Federal Government spends every second increasing the National Debt burden on us and our Grandchildren’s Descendants.
So much for what our highly paid Federal Politicians in “both” political parties are doing TO us.
Now comes what their smokescreen diversions are: Are you “Liberal or Conservative?”
To test this smokescreen, just ask yourself the following question:
“If a “Conservative Politician” is a Politician who “Conserves,” then who are the Politicians in all of our political parties who have EVER “Conserved” anything?”
My point is that the Left and Right Stream Media are distracting We, The People by this fracturing and splitting topic, while “both” political parties happily continue to convince us that we really do need 40 % more Federal Government than we can pay for.
There is no “fracturing” of any political party, as “both” of our political parties have the same basic goal: KEEP ON INCREASING THE SIZE OF THE US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
If you doubt me, then just FOLLOW THE MONEY.
wait
those fish freeze in the winter? you have to buy new fish every year?
