It's 4:00a and I'm still reading the forums... :(

Suppose I'll properly introduce myself. My name is Bryan (implied resounding "Hi Bryan"). Hello. I first discovered a love for plants at a legally adult age... that soon grew into gardening and later developed into purchasing those aerogardens advertised on TV for the parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. Eyes would often glaze over at family gatherings as soon as people began discussing gardening. I would throw out words like "aeroponics", "hydroponics" and "terraponics", utter madness in my bible loving family who thought you sowed your seeds in the ground and not in 1 gal polyurethene bucket filled with grodan.

and then I discovered you could do it all with fish....

My names Bryan and I'm a aquaponi-holic.

When I started here there were only about 10000 posts. I was being kept awake by a new baby, and it didn't take many nights to read every single post. Now there's 137256 posts. I really feel sorry for you new addicts. Happy reading, may there be many sleepless nights ahead.
Welcome

LOL - TV, that is for people who dont have internet or an aquaponic system

Bryan, if you thought the glazed looks were bad BEFORE AP, wait till you start with AP at gatherings... I believe there must be a thing called the 'super glazed look' - my wife is a master at it :oops:
Yep, no cure, you just get more and more addicted - get used to it, its got you and does NOT let go (we were considering turning it into a religion... now then, where were those 10 commandments of AP???!!! :mrgreen:

Which one?

The war in Iraq? The war in Afganistan? The war in [Insert 3rd world country name]? The war on drugs? The war on poverty? The war on world hunger? The war on the constitution? The war on terror? (or my favorite) The war on your mind? No way to tell... pretty sure the media here in the states has a war on something too... truth maybe?

You know your country is rediculous when people say, "starting a war is the best way to get out of a economic downturn."

Any of you aussie's got a cot I can sleep on? ;)

Welcome Brian!

I grew up in Ohio and reside in PA now. I do say Hey as well.

Maybe we need a war on war?

Did you purposely miss-spell my name? :P

...a War on War would be interesting. I can't even imagine the sensationalism journalist headlines reporting on that.

Anyway its good to be here. One of the better communities I've been part of online.
