    Well I have some good news. I got a new UPS driver. He said the other driver requested a new route for some reason.

    This new guy is cool. He delivered my new cone skimmer today. He knew exactly what it was by the picture on the box. He was all excited and said “Man, didn’t know they still made them. Haven’t seen one since the 60s.” I guess he’s been out of the hobby a long time. He stuck around until I opened the box. He didn’t call it a skimmer though. Kept calling it something else. Sounded like a Chinese knock-off brand. He must know his stuff because he could tell how well the skimmer would work by sucking on the riser pipe and holding his finger over muffler.

    I invited him to our Halloween party. Told him all my reefer buddies would be here and the skimmer should be broke in good by then and he could check it out. He said “Far out, cool man, can’t wait. Can I bring a couple of my reefer buddies?” Told him sure and I would give them some psychedelic mushrooms if he came. He turned to walk away and held up two fingers. I guess he wants two mushrooms.

    Haha. That is hilarious. I ordered some rock once. The package was heavy so when the UPS guy dropped it off he said, "What is in here? Rocks?" I replied, "Well, yeah actually..." He didnt say anything else and left. He looked pretty mad the last time he had to carry two five gallon buckets of salt down my incredibly steep driveway. He doesnt strike up conversation anymore either.
